We created an electric generator from an old exercise bike by adding a motor(generator), battery(12V), Inverter(DC to AC), and some gauges. Though it can power any appliance, the example used in the video is a blender.
Wow, that's great!! How is the belt system working out for you? I see people all over youtube doing direct connection (obviously it's more efficient, but by how much?) and you're the first I've seen to strap on a belt (easier installation I bet?).
How long do you have to pedal to run the blender for 5 minutes? That's crazy!! People just do light bulbs, but you my friend, are thinking big!!
I saw an article back in the early 80's for generating power for your house using a bike attached to generator & glad to see this!
