Hamster phone charger. Charging your Nokia with a hamster.
Meet Peter Ash. Back in 2005 his sister had a hamster called Elvis. He was quite an energetic little chap. In fact, Peter's sister used to complain that Elvis kept her awake at night because he wouldn't stop playing in his wheel. That got Peter thinking about ways to put Elvis' energy to good use. So, with a few gears and a turbine, he built a hamster-powered phone charger. And the more Elvis happily played on his wheel, the more talk time Peter got on his Nokia. Good work Elvis.

It's not going to be that difficult to turn, with the leverage from the outside edge of the wheel - I'm sure a normal hamster wheel that's gone a bit stiff would be harder to turn than this.
Also, I suppose a horse and cart is animal abuse too then?
