Pitsco TETRIX 12-Volt Rechargeable NiMH Battery Pack and Charger
The Pitsco 38334 TETRIX 12V Rechargeable NiMH Battery Pack and Charger includes the 39057 TETRIX 12-Volt Rechargeable NiMH Battery Pack and a 39057 NiMH Battery Pack Charger for students in grades 9-12 building TETRIX robotics projects. The 12V rechargeable NiMH battery pack supplies power to TETRIX motors and electrical components. The 10-cell battery pack includes a 20-amp built-in replaceable fuse for safety, and it has a 3,000-mAh capacity for battery life. The charger detects the battery pack voltage and adjusts to provide the proper charging voltage for safe charging. It cuts off power automatically when the battery pack is fully charged to protect the battery from over current, short circuit, and reverse polarity. TETRIX products reinforce science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) concepts for students in grades 9-12 studying robotics and building a working robot that demonstrates engineering, simple machines, force, and Newton's laws of motion. A battery pack and charger provide power to electric devices, tools, and machines, and can be used in an educational setting to power a robotics project.
Science education products incorporate applied math and science principles into classroom and homeschool-based projects. Teachers in pre-K, elementary, and secondary classrooms use science education kits and products alongside science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) curriculum to demonstrate STEM concepts and real-world applications through hands-on activities. Science education projects include a broad range of activities, such as practical experiments in engineering, aeronautics, robotics, energy, chemistry, physics, biology, and geology.
Pitsco Education develops K-12 science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) curriculum, educational kits, and classroom tools. The company, founded in 1971, is headquartered in Pittsburg, KS.
