Jun 24 2008Phone Charger Powered By Dance, Ecstasy
The Dance Charge is a prototype phone charger that powers your phone by harnessing the kinetic energy of your dance moves. You just strap the thing to your arm, drop some ecstasy, and then let your eyes roll up in the back of your head while you flail around like an epileptic.
The device - which weighs 180grams and measures about the same size as a pack of cards - will be strapped to peoples arms and tested at Glastonbury Festival this week.As the dancers moves their arms along to the music - a specially designed system of weights and magnets creates an electrical current which provides a top-up charge to a connected mobile phone.
The charger was developed by Orange UK and 'GotWind', a renewable energy company, and is being tested at the Glastonbury festival this week. But the device isn't just limited to harnessing dance energy. It also works if you swing your arms while you run or masturbate like a crazy person.

Can it charge more than just phones? If soI'll never have to buy batteries or chargers again with all the wank-power I could put through that thing.

so why couldn't you strap this to your leg and have a normal motion such as walking power your phone?

Because that's not as fun, Freddy, sheesh.

Yeah, because that bloodpressure-cuff-looking-mother is just what people on their way out for a night of dancing will want to strap on. Idiots.
