Siva Cycle "The Atom"
« on: January 24, 2015, 04:51:15 PM »
Seen this?

http://sivacycle.com/products/atom.php

Intriguing - use as a secondary use charger for multiple devices?

I've enquires whether it's compatible with a Rohloff (specifically Nomad w/ rim brakes). Awaiting response.

Hmm... I wonder why my search didn't reveal your post? Maybe I was too specific.  ???

Thanks Dan!

Of course that won't work! Everyone knows that you can't just hook up a generator to a motor and have a perpetual motion machine. Now if you put a simple amplifier between the Atom and the motor, then you'll be flying...

Then you could plug in your electric guitar, and power yourself down the road.

Ingenious, Dave!  ;D
