Solar Power & Electronics Bench
Wed · Aug 19 · 10 AM–1 PM · Lincoln Park, Somerville
We start from the very beginning — what a volt is, what a battery actually does — and build up, part by part, hooking up small solar panels, lights, batteries, and motors.
Along the way you'll get comfortable with a multimeter, measuring voltage, current, and resistance for yourself. Nothing is a black box: by the end you'll understand every wire.
