This Lego Set Could Save the Planet...

In 2010 Lego made one of the coolest sets that I've ever seen. It can literally generate it's own electricity...

It is possible the battery inside the Energy Storage unit is dead, it is 14 years old after all.
Also any Power Functions motor should be able to generate power if you crank it, it's not an exclusive feature of the E motor.

[@Ekipsogel]

The e motor is internally geared to generate more efficiently

[@Brickzeal]

Its actually so cool that LEGO has made sets like this, it almost opens a whole new world of possibilities with LEGO 😃 Also, great video man, informative and entertaining 👌👍

[@That_Guy_Ayaan]

4 likes? let me change that

[@hydroworldoutlook5769]

If only LEGO could make another set like this that is compatible with Spike Prime.

[@official_meelees]

any motor can also generate electricity

[@hydroworldoutlook5769]

True, but some can do so more efficiently than others.

[@englishforkids6109]

6:30 the big gear is a 40 tooth and the small is the 8 tooth so the ratio is 1:5 or one rotation of the 40 is 5 rotations of the 8

[@chamoischamois]

it's actually a 52 tooth

[@Frank6000productions]

Great video!
I have a small 20 watt solar panel with a charge controller I’m gonna make a little renewable energy generator.

[@Thinginator]

Any motor can generate electricity, the E-motor was just designed to do so more efficiently than other LEGO motors. Unfortunately it's actually pretty crap as a motor, doesn't have good torque or speed or size, so it's a good thing it's better than any other motor at being a generator, it's otherwise pointless to use.
As for the on switch, I'd try holding it down for a bit, kinda like how NXTs need a second to turn on. The orange dial probably controls polarity, and having it in the center is a "stop" position, which is probably why you couldn't get it to do anything.

[@user-ik4mj7ve9n]

I say go steam ya go back to steam trains!!!😂

[@superb_gaming_5]

Hey buddy. Where do ya think the heat for the water comes from?

[@user-ik4mj7ve9n]

My butt that what

[@SimplyMyBuilds]

Next thing you know, Lego releases Nuclear Power Plant sets that actually produce power lol. 😂

[@imaginitivity7853]

If you connect an old style square motor directly to another one it can turn the second motor as you turn the first one. My son made a crane control using this method.

[@finniboy9670]

Buy more solarpanel and Sack then on The energypack

[@RCoverlord7451]

You know what if you took the solar panel off and attached the windmill to the top of the car instead so if you were to push it to get the windmill spinning or spin the windmill with a little starter setup to get the windmill spinning the car would prob move faster therefore spinning the windmill faster. Faster the windmill = more energy generated faster and the faster the windmill goes the faster the car goes and the way to stop it could be to replicate a disk brake setup but on the windmill somewhere so when you need to stop some sort of lego rubber peice could be pressed up against a lego disk and then it would slowly slow it down until it stops moving
This was just an idea i had i thought would be a cool video idea 😂

[@Britishbricks]

This is awesome! Hopefully LEGO will do a re-release or something similar again in the future. Would love to attempt a solar train ☀️🚅

[@ProduccionesVAFY]

¿No hay ninguna manera de "actualizar" el sistema de los sets de energía renovable?
Is there no way to "upgrade" the renewable energy sets system?

[@brickstudiosYT]

¿Qué quieres decir con "actualizar"?

[@hamzamarji130]

Bro shoudlnt you put the e motor at the wheel so when it goes it charges the m motor

[@brickstudiosYT]

I think that would make more work for the motor and make the car go slower.

[@hamzamarji130]

Oh okay​@@brickstudiosYT

[@hamzamarji130]

But atleast itll go for a long time

[@Ekipsogel]

@@hamzamarji130it won’t really change how long it goes for

[@hamzamarji130]

Part 2

[@TrashPanda-kr2me]

At my old high school we had 6 of those sets and 6 pneumatic sets btw I was in the support unit that is why we don’t have many.
The number in the middle of the screen is the charge percentage.
And the pneumatic set you need to find that out on your own :) have fun.

[@TheCookieOnPC]

always wanted this set when i was 8

[@Ssa13-ib8yn]

Make a part 2 please! And try to place the windmill on the car, and next time check so the gears work before you try the new stuff. Great video!

[@williamthamrin]

I actually have this set, i thought that i got ripped off because i couldnt figure out how to use it and i thought you had to have a NXT Brick. Btw it might be a little hard to charge.

[@litlle_elctro_engeneer]

5:53 that is the way i do it

[@darthgbc363]

40 tooth to 8 tooth is 5:1

[@brickstudiosYT]

Is that gear 40 tooth? I did my math with it being a 48 tooth.

[@frankyanish4833]

You know they’ve been making sets like this since the 90s right?

[@brickstudiosYT]

Yeah someone actually told me that there's another Lego solar panel from 1999! I might have to make a part 2!

[@raphaelslegoworkshop8616]

I have 3 of those sets lol. Did not even know they were so expensive.

[@Yuhuhnuhuh]

9:50 I'm gonna ask completely unrelated question, what is the music in here?

[@Zephyrr-im7dh]

I have this set
you need to press the green button after you take away from charging

[@user-me7od1fg9v]

At one point the motors will wear out though

[@ItzDisplayeee]

dang i rlly want this now

[@Redcrafter_]

In Germany it costs only 15 $

[@user-uz7vz6cn1q]

use a gear ratio on the windmill

[@eshandatta8273]

The AC was at a very nice temperature 😂😂

[@brickstudiosYT]

Wow 😂

[@iO-Sci]

This is tranquil and has this wind science type electricity. 🤍☀🖱
이것은 고요하고 이 풍력 과학 유형의 전기를 가지고 있습니다.

[@DukeOfLasagna]

You should connect the crank to a motor and have the motor generate power to the crank that then powers the motor 🤣
Ya, I'm pretty sure that won't work

[@Ssa13-ib8yn]

It won’t because the generator generates less power than the motor comes out with. This is just a way to slowly use the power. Wish infinite power was a thing but it isn’t.

[@DukeOfLasagna]

@@Ssa13-ib8yn I know, I just thought it would be silly

[@killianbot11]

Now then you should improve your train

[@TheLegoAnimator863]

nah bro this stuff is so easy to understand if you know how to do it. Or just figure it out…

[@Rameise2.0]

I have this set
I think it costed like 75$ 😅

[@the_crew345]

How is the Lego city going

[@brickstudiosYT]

It's going great! We've finished filming part 2 and it's being edited right now...

[@yenjaiandpattplayz6991]

I want itttttttttt!
