About This Product
Junior learners press components into the spring contacts to see how adding bulbs in series dims them while parallel branches keep them bright, and how a switch opens or closes a circuit. Because no wires need stripping or soldering, circuits can be changed quickly to test ideas about current and voltage. Educational Instrument can dispatch the Circuit Board, Junior to laboratories in Trinidad and Tobago, Uruguay, Chile, Qatar, Eritrea and Solomon Islands.
