i don’t see why we couldn’t also have tv, fridge, ac, anything, working that way. no more electric bills. just have a winding gear by the la-z-boy that attaches to the whole electronics in the house and give it a wind every few hours. family or roommates could take shifts so you wouldn’t have to get up from sleep to wind the fridge, etc. i’m trying to get away from power bills. generators are too noisy and solar panels are too expensive. also i’m in florida and dreading losing power for a week throughout hurricane season. anybody know a website or store that sells things that go on wind-up power? other alternatives to electricity? thanks!
