Slide Nr 11EcoMech 1 Green Renewable Emergency Energy Generator – This fuelless electric generator produces emergency power without solar, wind or combustible energy, instead using a high-torque speed exchange system. Basically, the wind-up engine allows you to input one rotation via winding, push-button re-calibration or battery bank programme discharge, and achieve at least 90 rotations output, as the custom spring system converts the torque into mechanical energy. From there, the energy is transferred to a battery bank and converted to AC electric for easy and accessible power for your devices. Producing zero emissions and made from eco-friendly materials, EcoMech 1 is practical for many applications including camping, power outages, off-grid use and emergency preparedness.
