Stirling Engine Generator Kit for DIY Science, Glass Power Generation Toy
Stirling Engine Generator Kit for DIY Science, Glass Power Generation Toy delivers a hands-on, engaging way to explore power generation and thermodynamics. The double-cylinder model sits in a horizontal position on a clean, stable base with rubber pads to reduce vibration, making it easy to observe the engine in action. Built with glass components for a clear view of internal motion, this SD-Z5G High version brings authentic Stirling mechanics into your learning space. The quartz heating cylinder, aluminum alloy flywheel and bracket, and precision-machined connecting rods create a genuine, classroom-safe experience. The base houses a voltmeter and USB inside, so you can monitor electrical output as you experiment. LED lights flash when the engine runs normally, giving a satisfying visual cue as energy is converted from heat to motion to electricity. All electronic and mechanical equipment, devices and machines sold by InterCyprus to EU countries are CE certified and carry a two year warranty. At intercyprus.com since 2002 — trusted for quality and reliability.

Warnings/Reminders
- This product is suitable for people over 14 years old; children should be accompanied by adults.
- Alcohol is a liquid and cannot be transported by express delivery. Use 75%+ purity alcohol purchased from pharmacies.
- Limit one-time operation time to less than one-third of the alcohol lamp vial.
- Freshly shipped units may have a hot test tube; do not touch skin or flammable items. Avoid contact with alcohol wicks to prevent cylinder rupture.
- The heating cylinder should not be touched after operation; allow it to cool to prevent burns.
- Do not lubricate shafts or connecting rods with oil. If lubrication is needed, pencil lead can be used instead to reduce friction.
