We have discussed treadmills and rowing machines that generate electricity while you work out; here is a freeweight that is a gyroscopic generator, increasing resistance in exercising and charging your rechargeables at the same time. Instead of burning those calories and wasting them as heat, it is put to use. "By making a rotary movement from the wrist, the rotor, which is localized in the centre of the Manual Power, is kept rotating. While rotating energy is produced, which can be used via a smart construction for charging a cell phone. And when no phone is connected, the produced energy is stored in a built-in battery. Ready to be used by the flashlight." Build a great bod and generate power at the same time- What could be better?. ::Manual Power forgive the cheesecake pictures via ::Gizmodo
