Listening to your music on your phone/mp3 player while enjoying a long bike ride only to realize you’re battery is running low – been there, done that. If I don’t have music to listen to, then my “physical battery” starts to run low as I have no motivational music to power my lazy ass up those hills. It’s situations like this where I have the genius idea of coming up with a device to charge my electronics using the pedaling power of my bicycle.
But thankfully, I don’t have to day dream about this idea of mine since it already exists. It’s true; all the good ideas are already taken. The folks over at EcoXGear have a product, the EcoXPower, which charges any USB device using your very own pedaling power from your bicycle.
