Let’s face it: it is 2015 and we still wonder every day exactly how the Amish get by without the use of computers. As people in this ever-growing sea of technology, we strive to put ourselves in simpler times. Well, from Indiegogo, comes the “Ampware” Hand Crank-Powered Generator iPhone Case; a casing for your phone that comes with a built-in crank that allows you to charge your device by hand!
This handy gadget adds even more mass to your phone, ensuring that you will barely have room for it in your pocket! The crank estimates that for a one minute bicep workout, you will get an extra 40 minutes of charge time! Go the extra mile (preferably while listening to “Eye Of The Tiger”) and 5 minutes of cranking will give you a full 3 hours!
On a more serious note, this device could potentially have some very useful benefits. Lost is not just a TV show, it’s something that happens to people. Imagine you are lost at sea, in the woods, or even your own closet on a bad trip, and you need to call for help or use GPS to get home. This crank could save your life in that scenario!
The Ampware crank also has a USB port, so you can use it to charge other devices as well!
