34、nd HandEnergy is that of a two-axis rotor gyroscope (双轴转子陀螺仪). “You may be familiar with the wrist-training device called the Powerball, which is a powerful handheld gyroscope,” HandEnergy co-founder Alex Novik told Digital Trends. “We came up with the idea of putting a battery, metal coil (线圈) and
35、magnets (磁铁) inside a similar device for making electricity. We spent a year developing it, and finally arrived at one we were happy with.”To use HandEnergy, users start by winding a starter ring. This sends a signal to drive the rotor, at which point they can start rotating (旋转) their wrists to kee
36、p the rotor spinning. The rotor inside HandEnergy spins at an average speed of 5,000 rotations per minute, conveying mechanical power to create electricity, and charging the built-in batteries.

38、 mAh, so it wont charge your phone completely at a time, but it can surely keep it running for a while longer when you really need it. Plus, it uses clean, unlimited energy.HandEnergy will be available for the masses in December 2017, at a price of 99 Euros. One thing is for sureit beats paying thou
