We added details to our idea of making a pedal powered unit that switches the power for a TV, game console, or whatever.
Added concept of having a gauge showing charge, or minutes of time before they have to pedal again.
Added concept of locked cover over outlets to lock in the power plug.
Package could be small enough to be affordable since it's not actually generating power, but just closing a contact. Would need a capacitor or something to hold a charge for up to 10 or 15 minutes.
Would require adjustable resistance if not actually generating the power.
Could be integrated into a nice, semi-reclined chair unit with speakers for video game consoles.
One for the living room may send a wireless signal to the switch box so the pedal unit could move from couch to couch to chair.
