Pedal power is **amazing** for things like charging phones or powering small devices and computers though, or for something completely meta: Charging up a eBike or electric scooter (120W), to then use without pedalling later.

Skip that step and get a chainless digital drive bike. Same concept but you charge it as you ride.
