Kind regards, The Thames & Kosmos Technical Support Team **Q: What's the average size of the robots once complete?** A: Thank you for your question. Each robot is about 3.25 inches tall. **Q: do these robots work with artificial light? Could you play with them at night in a well-lit room?** A: Thank you for your question. The solar panel can be powered either by direct light from an incandescent bulb (not an LED or Energy saver bulbs) or direct sunlight. **Q: How long to charge** A: This kit does not charge, rather it operates only while in direct light. Because the solar panel is small, it can require a good amount of energy for sufficient output. We kindly recommend trying one of the following: (Outdoors) Direct light from the sun (indirect or cloud-covered sunlight will not work). (Indoors) Direct light from an incandescent bulb (not an LED or an energy saver bulb). ## Frequently Bought Together - Thames & Kosmos SolarBots: 8-in-1 Solar Robot STEM Experiment Kit | Build 8 Cool Solar-Powered Robots in Minutes | No Batteries Required | Learn About Solar Energy & Technology | Solar Panel Included - Thames & Kosmos Mega Cyborg Hand STEM Experiment Kit | Build Your Own GIANT Hydraulic Amazing Gripping Capabilities Adjustable for Different Sizes Learn Pneumatic Systems - Thames & Kosmos WindBots 6-in-1 Engineering STEM Kit | Build 6 Wind-Powered Bots, No Batteries/Electricity Required | Explore Wind Technology, Gear Ratios & More | Full-Color Manual & Experiment Guide --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/219086982-solarbots-8-in-1-solar-robot-stem-experiment-kit](https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/219086982-solarbots-8-in-1-solar-robot-stem-experiment-kit) --- *Product available on Desertcart Cyprus* *Store origin: CY* *Last updated: 2026-07-09*
