Power Works is developing and marketing products that convert human-supplied mechanical energy into electricity, without requiring access to any other external source of power. Products based on our patented technology can be used to recharge batteries that power other appliances (e.g., lights, radios, televisions, water purifiers), without needing to “plug-in” to grid-based electricity, a diesel generator, or an automobile cigarette lighter socket.

Our product designs have the following attributes:
• No requirement for any electrical outlet or fuel input
• Light weight and compact size for ease of portability
• Simplicity and ease of operation, for use by any able-bodied person
• No operating or maintenance costs, no parts to replace
•  Simple and quiet to operate
•  Watertight and extreme durability, for 100% reliable use under all conditions
  •  Quiet operation, no emissions or heat produced

As depicted below, Power Works has developed a product prototype that:
• Generates 10-15 watts from hand-cranked rotation, with increasing output at higher rotation speeds
• Requires only a modest level of human input effort
• Produces a 13.8 volt DC output, enabling the user to recharge 12 volt batteries commonly employed to supply power to appliances used throughout the world
  • Weighs 4 kg (less than 9 pounds), and is of the approximate size of a shoe box, with a hand grip and folding hand-crank for maximum portability
  • Can be placed for use either on a raised surface (e.g., table) or the floor/ground

This product was designed primarily for government agencies and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) that are engaged in international efforts to provide:
• Villages without electrification a means to power electrically operated devices that support basic human needs, such as lighting, clean water, refrigeration and communications
• Temporary energy supplies to areas that have been adversely affected by disasters, in support of relief efforts to ensure that basic human needs continue to be met

In addition, this product is also well-suited for certain military, industrial, emergency and recreational purposes worldwide.

Power Works seeks to enter into discussions with parties that are interested in a product of this type, which we believe addresses a substantial worldwide market better than any other available alternative. Please contact us to obtain a specification sheet and to learn more about this product.

Additionally, Power Works continues to identify other markets that would benefit from our technology, in order to develop superior products optimally suited for these markets.

If you have needs for portable human-powered electronic devices, please contact Power Works. Our team is eager to work with you in developing and providing you a product that will meet your exact requirements.
