USB hand cranked charger

[Phil]

The iPhone version will be available soon. It will cost US$79.99. Probably. And then they'll change the iPhone connector from the iPhone 6 onwards. And it will be white.

The long shipping is cool in a way as I most often forget I ordered something and it is such a nice surprise opening the package when it finally arrives.  Anyhow I tried one and the on board LED glowed when you cranked, so I hooked it up to an older G1 phone.  The charge LED on the phone glowed nicely when I cranked.  I tried it on a cheapo HD camera I got and it charged that too.  I haven't figured out current yet and I'm tempted to buy one of those gizmos that measure USB charging voltage/current.  Maybe I can cut up an old USB cable and figure something out?  They aren't real hard to crank, but it is monotonous and it might take hours to charge a phone, but like I said I' a fool for little Gadgets.   All the way from China, with free shipping these cost me $2.11, which is pretty good, cheaper than a beer.  Buy one for your kids, take them to a party to impress you friends or use them to pick up women in shady night spots (or if there are any women on list, pick up guys in shady night spots).  There is no end to the fun...
