This class of rover has two rechargeable lithium batteries each composed of 8 cells with 8 amp hour capacity. When the rover is ready and starts to move disconnect the rover from the solar panel.

The rover uses a combination of solar cells and a rechargeable chemical battery. The computer contains 128 megabytes of volatile dram and is run at 133 mhz. A great activity set for every budding engineer and scientist this fun construction set uses solar panels to turn sunlight into electricity.
