An e bike can now power itself

An inventor from Javea in Spain, Graham Smith, has invented, produced and sold the IP to many products. Now he claims to have the best invention ever - if you like e-bikes, and saving the environment and money that is.

Using his knowledge from renewable energy, he set about finding a way to have a charging unit on one of the wheels, so that when the bike is ridden electrical energy is generated. Bikes have had dynamos fitted, for the best part of a century, but they are nowhere near efficient enough.

It wasn't too long, however, before Graham had thought of a solution. Strangely, this was somewhat helped by Government restrictions, as many have imposed speed limits on e-bikes and e-cargo bikes. These limits (generally, of 15 to 20 MPH) made it a little easier to find an answer.

He began by using a wind turbine motor and then patented a way to make it generate at the correct RPM (Revolutions Per Minute), to match the RPM of the wheels. After many hours research, at his workshops in Javea Spain, he and his colleagues found what they needed, to build the device with the correct gearing techniques. Graham then patented this new technology, and they named the invention volton.it.

The next step was to find a suitably qualified company, that would be willing to produce the unit. A well-established company in the USA, Bakcou bikes https://bakcou.com/ has stepped in, and will be producing a production ready prototype, under a Non-Disclosure Agreement signed with Graham.

The experience of Bakcou in the bicycle market will help to show what all the research has indicated namely, if this system can be proved to fully charge the batteries while you are riding, so you can have limitless miles, with no mains battery charging required.

The unit invented by Graham can produce 450 Watts and other versions up to 600 Watts, far in excess of the 250 to 300 Watts used by the bike's drive motor. Graham has already been contacted by a number of EU based manufacturers wanting more information about his charging system. Clearly, many possible investment opportunities exist, and Graham would like to hear from any other interested manufacturers, or direct investors.
