<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=4219794"><img class="aligncenter" title="LEGO Edu 2010 Catalog" src="http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/ZED/Other/2010-Lego-Education/p1010341.jpg" alt="" width="543" height="314" /></a></p>
<p>Some cool products that we must look out for:</p>
<p>1) LEGO Energy Meter kit featuring 3 main renewable energy &#8211; namely Wind, Sun and Hydro</p>
<p>This is a must buy kit that allows students to understand about renewable energy and how they can apply them in their daily life</p>
<p>2) NXT Rechargeable Battery Upgrade set (9693)</p>
<p>This is an upgrade of the existing NXT rechargeable battery that reduces battery wastage and well&#8230;cost.</p>
<p>To thank everyone for supporting the use of rechargeable batteries, LEGO has made it even BETTER by increasing the capacity of from 1400mAh to 2100mAh. So you will be expecting the new rechargeable to last 1.5 times longer that its predecessor.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Lots of cool stuff coming your way!<br />
Do visit Robo Academy regularly or subscribe to our newsletter and you will never miss out the lastest NXT news !</p>
