Bicycle substation
Following the show we’ve had a number of questions asking how to make electricity from pedal energy. To help this along we’ve annotated the image of one of our mini substations to give you an idea of how to make your own usable electricity from pedal-energy. Click on the picture or here to see. The principles of this substation are identical to those used for the Human Power Station except of course it was scaled up massively to support huge number of bicycle-generators. Hope this helps.
Update: I’ve added some notes on Flickr regarding safety when using inverters. Click on the image to take a look.
