Hi guys

I own few AM block erupter, Also own few pet hamsters. I was thinking the other day, why not get these lazy animal to work for me earning money in full time, they have a running wheel and I wanted to see if it was possible to hook this running wheel up to alternator or something and power small generator. not as 100% power of course as it is too much. just as backup or reserve- maybe I can earn sandwhich from them  Grin


is it feasible, anybody tried?

Of course you can generate power this way but you might need some kick-ass hamsters on steroids to power block erupters Smiley

I was thinking bicycle dyno, but still maybe a hamster would be too light to turn it, a rat or a chinchilla maybe.

Maybe you could use a small electric motor, not sure how much power it would produce though.

Example with one motor turning another... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiIVkp7mMwE

Instead of exploiting animals you could also try a small solar cell or wind mill.  Wink

Examples of home made windmill generators... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zrp0RC3XTpw
