The Electric Vehicle Electronics Trainer (730-10) from LJ Create introduces students to the core electronics concepts required to understand and troubleshoot electric vehicles. Beginning with basic electricity using switches and lamps, students can progress into circuit construction, measurement, component operation, and electronic diagnostics using a platform designed specifically for automotive and EV education.
The trainer incorporates authentic automotive-style input, safety, process, and output devices, including a servo motor, automotive fuse, relay, and vehicle-themed power and voltage indicators. A circuit-patching area allows students to build and investigate circuits, while switchable faults provide practical experience in developing electronic troubleshooting skills.
Features
- Automotive-themed components connect electronics theory to vehicle applications.
- Circuit patching area supports hands-on circuit construction.
- 28 mounted components provide a variety of circuit-building options.
- Switchable faults introduce electronic troubleshooting techniques.
- Protected power supplies provide short-circuit and overload protection.
- Experiment card mounting area allows the trainer to expand into additional EV topics.
