Cycle Up Some Electricity in a Bunker
Makes no sense to me, but I keep on finding the same factoid:
If you find yourself in a post-SHTF scenario, please please please place some effort into creating some passive energy. Think windmill, river turbine, solar, steam... Don't pedal, because burning the food you ate to generate that pedal-power, would most likely create more electricity, without pedaling . And you wouldn't be so tired, or embarrassed.
With the electricity produced by an hour of pedaling, we could light a 100-watt incandescent bulb for an hour.Or, in other words, one cents worth of electricity. Granted, a 20-watt bulb has some value, and an hour of stationary cycling would keep it running for 5 hours.
