Power your Gadgets with Pedal Power Workouts

by Brian Yalung on Thursday, November 13th, 2008

We have seen a lot of things invented but if you want to define multi-tasking and getting a lot of things done, hooking up exercise bikes to power a lot of gadgets like laptops, LCD TVs and batteries is something that can really get a lot of work done.

This is both for health and personal tasks. We all hear about conserving energy and pedal power seems to be the best alternative to power up these gadgets and remain fit at the same time.

At Green Microgym, electricity generated by the bikes flows into a bank of batteries, which, in turn, powers devices. Boesel plans to install a “grid-tie” inverter, which allows the generated energy to stream directly into the power grid. This device allows creators of alternative energy, such as solar and wind, to “spin the meter backward” and sell power to their local utility company.
