Students Build Energy Bike

Students are currently in the process of attempting to build an "energy bike". The energy bike will be used to demonstrate how much energy is used by different items (light bulbs, fluorescent bulbs, radios, etc). Students will then be able to teach others about energy use and how to conserve energy. To accomplish this students are converting a mountain bike to attach to a generator that is connected to a display panel. We welcome help from our "electrically gifted" community members to help us with connecting the generator and creating the circuitry for the display panel.
