DON'T WASTE IT, USE IT
The idea
Capture the energy that is currently wasted when using a Concept 2 rowing machine whilst keeping the experience the same.
How does it capture the energy?
The fan is replaced with a generator that creates electricity. This electricity then charges a portable battery.
How does it work?
We retro fit existing Concept 2 rowing machines with the technology to capture the energy. We make sure no damage is done to the rowing machine with our technology so it can be reverted at any time. We also ensure that the rowing experience is not altered by our technology so the user cannot tell the difference, apart from it being a bit quieter.
What stage are we at today?
Currently we have a prototype built that we are testing and demonstrating to people. We plan to take it to indoor rowing events so that people can try it out it and give their opinion on it. Follow us on Twitter or contact us to get further information.
