Mission to Haiti
About a year ago I was contacted by a teacher who ran across my blog and was looking for help building a pedal generator. I learned that she was planning to bring the pedal generator on a mission to Haiti with a group of students from her school. I was happy to help but soon realized I could help with more than just guidance on her noble mission. Since I had many of the parts on hand, I…

Mountain Bike to Beach Cruiser Conversion "FrankenCruzer"
Mountain Bike to Beach Cruiser Conversion “FrankenCruzer”
Now that summer is here, I spend less time on the pedal generator and more time on my mountain bike and going for casual rides with family. I’ve found that the more aggressive forward leaning position of the mountain bike isn’t the most comfortable for just tooling down the canal path or open road when I’m out with the family, so decided to make a beach cruiser of sorts out of an old mountain…

Direct charge, grid tie or battery bank?
Direct charge, grid tie or battery bank?
What is the best use of your pedaling time on a pedal generator? There are 3 typical avenues you could direct your watts:
Direct charge: Directly use the watts coming out of your pedal generator, once converted to useful 12 volt current, and charge your devices using car chargers.
Grid Tie: Use a grid tie inverter to send all your pedaling effort into the nearest wall outlet.
Battery bank:Charge…

Wall Charger Verses 12v Car Charger Efficiency
Wall Charger Verses 12v Car Charger Efficiency
Have you ever wondered which kind of charger is more efficient? Are wall chargers we use to charge our devices just as efficient as 12v car chargers? In this blog post, you’ll find out!
I grabbed 3 quality wall chargers and 3 quality car chargers with the intent to see how many watts each consumed, and how many they actually put into an Apple iPad Mini. To find these measurements, I used a wall…

Comparing USB chargers for charging the iPhone 7 Plus
Getting the most watts into my devices helps me make the most of my pedaling time. A typical 1 amp charger adds about 5 watts to the charge load, but will take several hours to charge even the smallest device battery. In this post, I’ll compare the output of several chargers and how many watts they can put into my iPhone 7 Plus.
Chargers included in this test: 1. Original Apple 5 watt wall charger
