The PPPM is used to power a laptop with pedal power. An easy pedal, the laptop is cold-booted and the video finishes with the laptop connected to the local wireless network. Add a laptop table, and pedal while you surf. http://www.los-gatos .ca.us/davidbu/pedge n.html
Beat the energy crisis and get healthy at the same time. This device is REAL, and you can build it yourself from plans offered at http://www.los-gatos .ca.us/davidbu/pedge n/plans.html
The PPPM generates electricity for a 12 Volt DC/110 Volt AC Television set. The movie takes a tour of the equipment, with real-time energy measurements, and ends with a comparison of the power required for the DC vs. AC modes of the television. See the whole experiment at http://www.los-gatos .ca.us/davidbu/pedge n.html
A tour of the parts and configuration of the Power Board. The circuit may be seen here:

Select the parts shown on the Power Board and the Circuit Builder will show the circuit needed to connect them.
We hook up two generators to the PPPM
to determine if maximum power output can be
increased. Lots more at: http://www.los-gatos .ca.us/davidbu/pedge n.html
Sleep warm with a Pedal Powered Electric Blanket. 10-15 minutes of pedaling just before bedtime will take the chill out of the bed and warm you up at the same time! See more at http://www.los-gatos .ca.us/davidbu/pedge n.html
First test of the ball-bearing parallelogram mounted on the handlebars of my bicycle. The Movie is almost watchable. I'll be improving the bearing points and mounting more of the device on rubber next. Then I have to think about the side-to-side motion. So far so good, at slower speeds (10 MPH)
