  • 2:48 why would you ride your bike in the rain?

  • @blade123155 Who said he is going when it's raining? Maybe he was already on his cycle and was 30 minutes away from home and his destination? Get some logic --"

  • solar powered phone charger?

  • This would really come in handy if your power ever went out.

  • was there a bucket on your head when you were on your bike?

  • This is what happens when Macgruber has a kid.

  • yeah, and if i take my ATB and go downhill with 70km/h the iPod will explode in my face... that's just nicexD

  • Can i do this on a car

  • Now plug it in and its instantly on and fully charged

  • that awkward moment where you have to hold your phone the entire bike ride

  • is their any way to use your bike without holding the phone?

  • @LegitUnderdog Maybe have it in a little pouch? Like your backpack or water bottle holder?

  • lol

    

  • come up with a way to keep your iPhone/iPad held to your bike so it doesn't fall off

  • you wanna that i destroy my radio?!?

  • @asdwjure Are you Seven years old, or are you just retarded...?

  • @redmilkfloat

    i was just kidding

  • easy´er alternatif car loader for your own cellphone cutt the wires split them connect them to your dynamo and boom loading

  • what if you crash when charging your ipod or iphone? itll break

  • Who the hell rides around on their bike with a phone?

  • 1:08 THATS WHAT SHE SAID

  • Looks unsafe...

  • may i ask does this work if i just leave my batterys on cause im not doing this project without a bike but just using my hands to crank it but... i haven't seen anycharging all i see is my screen turn on when i crank it very fast but dosnt bump up a bar on my ipod :( i dont know how long i have to do this cause my arms are tired and can this work if i just crank it without pluging it in (with the battery still inside) the ipod, then when i crank it forlong enought then i plug it in my ipod?

  • /watch?v=SjEuwrPx-gQ

  • i want one of those raio hand crank things not taken apart i pay you through mail if you message me

  • simple!? no sir you made it harder. instead of dismanteling a radio, hook your charger to a BIKE DYNAMO. it's easier and much less expensive.

  • hold on... the flashlight-radio-charger was much better than the bike charger... why did u take it apart?

  • sucks if you have a flat tire and thats why you need to make the call

  • totaly illigal in the uk :)

  • 3:15, got a fat guy taking a shit on the side walk, again

  • bla

  • i think your definition of simple and mine are COMPLETELY opposite

  • Maybe patent the design, all that excess Stuff and duck tape on the inside of the frame. And have the charger part coming from the handle have a grip of some sort to hold the device in place.

  • I fell off my bike when I was plugging my phone in to charge

  • seems like a very good way to destroy your iphone

  • it actually works try it

  • Okay.... You put the cable in Iphone, drive the bycicle and you film???? MAGIC please make about that! Youtubers Thumbs up that he could see

  • 📱+🚲=running over your iPhone..

  • 688,876 people lost a radio due to this video

  • 🐙

  • Haha, thats cool... Sudenlly a full battery

  • 356 iphones did not survived this ride

  • This is the best workout ever.

  • I have that same radio!

  • You should redo this hack and use all the parts from the radio for the bike, that would be super cool to have a bike with a radio

  • @SHUGBUG1986II actually i was thinking the same thing

  • why bike and not car?

    xD

  • u owe me a new iphone!!!

  • What if you dont have an iPhone?  -___-

  • that's distracted driving. you can get a ticket for doing that here in Calgary. -_-'

  • why don't keep the solar panel and battery question mark

    between brackets youtube is too retarted so i can't add special marks

  • test

    

  • why don't keep the solar panel and battery?

  • You know it's redneck if it has ducktape in it.

  • what is that reflection at 3.10??? its like hes wearing a bucket on his head

  • @dragonpowner49 It's a water tower...

  • Does this guy remind you of Kipkay?

  • I made this but i put on my bitchs mouth it spins alot more than my wheelrs

  • Comment removed

  • or you can buy an emergency charger and bring it anywhere:)

  • it works like those lights for bicycles.

  • eco imagination huh..whyd u throw away the solar panel !!!

  • rain... -__-

  • @GuitarGhost123  have you even been paying attention?

  • how to fuck does a hand crank radio have a USB port.

  • what about when you hit bumps in the road, wouldnt that fuck up the generator? btw AWESOME STUFF!

  • dude when u turned ur phone on it had a full battery make it beleivable

  • @redmouse22 that green battery means it is charging lol...

  • @redmouse22

    yeah, that WAS kinda funny, but when you're under a time limit like these guys, you don't really have much time nor inclination to run down your battery for the test film...

    That being said, there were several more reasons why this was a bad idea, first and foremost? Having a more stable mount so that bumps or settling doesn't cause this build to get caught in your tire and break makes the unrealistic test film a low priority on the "What you did wrong" list...

  • That silly white wire nearly killed me asshole. XD 1:30

  • Or you can just use the hand crank you used to make the bike contraption.

  • I ran over my iPhone -.-

  • @DezzyDylan You should of screwed a small wooden docking station on.

  • @DezzyDylan good now you can go buy an android

  • @DezzyDylan No you didn't you don't even have an iPhone...

  • @DezzyDylan xD

  • The radio has a usb port on it. Plug your iphone charger into that, start cranking. Boom.

  • @schellhamer88 Why it has to be simpole when it can be complicated. This video prooves what people in my country are saying !

  • Looks like your phone is not dead in the beginning ! It still Full battery

  • Im pretty sure you did, but just to make sure,

    Did you use the eton hand crank (CRCFR160WXR)?

    And can i keep the battery for charging when i take a break from riding for a few minutes, and can i keep the solar panel as another form of energy to charge my ipod

  • and now i dont have a radio.

  • what an idiot...

    

  • Fake situation: Me, biking through the woods with this, drops and breaks phone and no possible way to get back soon and i just used the only hand crank radio that i have

  • This won't produce 5 volts constant, you should have kept the battery and regulated the 5 volts. Also, this isn't getting free energy. This is taking energy from you via increased friction. That power is coming from you, which comes from food, which is a lot harder to make than 5 volts of electricity.

  • i was doing this and two of the wires that connected the generator to the circut board broke. How do i fix them?

  • @solidraq Solder or wire splicers, of course!

  • 0:25

    0:37

    1:07

    1:20

    1:22

    2:10

    thats what she said!!!!!!

  • and then when you drop your phone,

  • why would you get rid of the solar panel? you could just chill on a bench while the god damn solar panel you threw away does all the work.

    i have a question: what if you're going like 50 miles an hour down a steep as hill? will that generate too much power and blow that shit up? lol and can you get a ticket for using your phone while riding a bike?

  • Who makes phone calls while riding a bike anyways..?

  • Comment removed

  • never fails to amaze..

  • so, GAY..

  • So what's dangerous about this?

  • How did you record and hold the phone at the end at the same time? O_O

  • in europe we call this shit "bicycle dynamo"

  • Sure use a few strips of duct tape to hold a 600$ device

  • Thumbs up for butter knives!!

  • 3:11..... You put a buckket over your head...

  • Just saying you could keep the light for night time bikeing, the radio for sum tunes on the rode and finaly the battery if your bike breakes down the battery is still charged and will give power

  • @nativegangstadogtv Come on I was just joking. I was mocking those other losers that legitamatley want to dupe you.

  • 354 ppl dont like using a bike charger

  • thumbs up if you watch house hold hacker but dont make any of them

  • @Astronautical123 calm down fag. do u wake up every morning hating how people comment on youtube videos?

  • when u pluged it in it was fully charged...

    lol

  • plug the usb ac thing they built

  • Awesome!! :)

  • good because can charge the phone for free. the bad is, WATCH OUT FOR THE CAR!

  • Is it possible to keep the hand crank, and still charge the phone without the bike? (say it is during a storm, the power is out, and your phone dies.)

  • if only americans rode bikes...

  • *riding along*

    DROP!!

    "OH CRAP!"

  • Ok everyone, just bought the same exact radio at radioshack for 35$. Now im planning on using all of the components but still using the generator on the bike tire to power the usb. Also I plan to use the lights from the radio to basically make a headlight for my bike seen as I don't have one. I'll let you know my progress and probab a vid response here in a couple of days.

    PS I ride my bike a lot to commute and for fun so this should come in great use. Oh and thanks for the great idea HH

  • @emoninja72 sounds nice. I would like to see another one of these. there so cool

  • Comment removed

  • Whoa haha. Damn you my friend are real smart and this was a cool idea that should be sent somewhere!

  • dude, u should be on the news or somethin! ur so smart

  • How long would you be riding your bike in one go? 30 minutes maybe? And outta those, how long would be riding at above 10mph? 10 minutes? I guess 10 minutes of charging does no good...Good idea but not useful.

  • youtube tutorials are so gay ''watches this video'' holy fu-

  • That is to cool. Rad Dude!!!

  • Cooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­l

  • Thit is great but how many really do this stuff?

  • now what about those old generator bike light would they work just as good with a little modding ?

  • a dead iphone has to turn on when you plug it in before going to the lockscreen

  • why not the solar panel??? that can help a lot!!!!!!!

  • cause i can charge my iphone with a bicycle, with a bicycle,with a bicycle

  • Busted!!!! The end of theUSB cable in the port at the circuit card is black and the cable at the iPhone is white!! Liars!

  • @kitzenmovies i dont know about you guys but the walmart by me sells backpacks to carry laptops while riding your bike. I actually have one myself and i can have it on while riding my bycicle.

  • @kitzenmovies yes,thay are fake but there is no way that he is carrying his laptop and holding his phone at the same time because you can see his other hand...jest saying

  • Comment removed

  • thumbs up if u thought he was going to hook the generator up the sprocket

  • what whould you like for me to buy that off you

  • @cman12399 They're showing how to make it... you're supposed to make it...

  • you really should have had someone film you riding that bike. filming yourself charging your phone
