  • PEG generator
    The nPower PEG (Personal Energy Generator) has been described as the “world’s first passive kinetic energy charger.” It harvests kinetic energy from walking, running, or biking and uses it to charge your smart phone, music player and other hand-held devices. Now the Indiegogo community is aiming to deliver 100 of these mobile generators to Crisis Mapper projects in high-risk off-grid populations, allowing people to report, map, record, and observe events with devices charged by their own kinetic energy.
