Guest Jamma14 Posted April 1, 2005 Report Posted April 1, 2005 An app that lets you recharge your battery by spinning your phone!!?? May be an April Fools joke but I'm gonna test it now! You can download it from HERE and you can read more about it there too. From ppcw.net: Well, that's an interesting project I got notice about. Battery stand-by time of mobile devices, from mobile phones to PDAs to Notebooks is always critical but not less critical is to get an empty battery recharged. However, there might be a solution we haven't thought about yet. Most modern mobile phones have a small electric motor which is used for the for the vibration notification. However, as we have learned in the physic class in school, an electric motor is just a reversed dynamo. So the basic idea of this project called "spinLoad" is to use the electric motor of your phone as a dynamo to get the mobile phone battery recharged. Hope it isn't a joke but I think it prob is!! :|
Guest gpcarreon (MVP) Posted April 1, 2005 Report Posted April 1, 2005 How about just rubbing the battery on the lap? :D
Guest Jamma14 Posted April 1, 2005 Report Posted April 1, 2005 (edited) K well I've tried it and it does do stuff and vibrates and all that kinda thing...but seems to have drained the battery more than recharge it when lookin in task manager...maybe I'm not doing it right but I'd be very surprised if this was real. :D Well other ppl have a go see what you guys make of it...

Guest spvdk Posted April 1, 2005 Report Posted April 1, 2005 Hehe. That's pretty funny :D I remember one April 1'st, when a tabloid claimed the 'daylight saving time' had been retracted by the government. They got a lot of ppl turning back their watches and showing up late for work the next day :D
