Nobody will ever be able to patent a dynamo and tramsformer. They're far too common already.

[rhagesolace]

I would totally buy one here in the U.S. They'd better work fast to get an international patent for it before one of the mega-corporations snatch it up.

@rhagesolace You could make one from a standard dynamo an appropriate connector and some regulating circuitry in about 10 mins.

@rhagesolace I'm not sure that an international patent office exists. Any patent is as only as good as the depth patent holders pockets, to be able file lawsuits. This most likely has been done so many times over, it may not be eligible for patent.

This guy is a pretty smart guy. A useful and green invention.

[pejeno]

Awesome. Necessity is indeed the mother of invention. Here's hoping they can sucessfully market it worldwide.
