Solar grasshopper locust – Novel Solar Powered Locust Reviews

Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:more than 1 month

Pros:
It's about 1/3 the price compared to other places. It's neat looking It's simple to use once you know how to use it It's fun
Cons:
There's no specific instruction so you think that it doesn't work but it just requires a very strong light directly on top of it. Room light is not sufficient. It really doesn't look like a bug since the solar panel is rectangular. The roach looks more like a bug but I didn't get that.
Other:
Bottomline:
It's a fun toy to play with but most people will quickly lose interest in it. It's pretty useless but cheap and demonstrates solar energy.
