Solar cells convert solar energy directly into electricity. The big problem with solar power is the most obvious one: The sun doesn't shine all the time. No sun No power SOLUTION: STORE THE ENERGY IN A BATTERY
ECO FRIENDLY MODEL HOUSE We used solar cells to charge up a battery.
ECO FRIENDLY MODEL HOUSE We used LEDS for lighting
REASONS FOR USING LED’s FOR LIGHTING. 1.LED lights typically last up to 100,000 hours. 2. LED’s are extremely efficient (they generate very little heat compared to incandescent lamps).
REASON FOR USING RGB LED STRIPS: We can now have any color we want. (RGB ARE THE INITIALS FOR THE WORDS: RED, GREEN, BLUE).
