Alternative energy gadgets: No battery, no cry
Tags: charge, gadgets, gift, eco
The smart ed is like a smart fortwo coupé, except with electricity providing the juice instead of nasty old fossil fuel. Come back, gearheads: the ed isn't one of your mother's electric cars. It makes no compromise on perfomance, reaching a nippy 60mph and covering 72 miles of city streets before pit-stop top-up.

A green future is probably going to involve lots of different technologies. Solar is probably going to work best on a large scale to get economies of scale. I like the idea of more wind-up though, by winding things up we get a true feel for how much energy they need.

This is a good idea in theory... unfortunately the execution is hopeless. Having tried this on the equator with buckets of sun... it was so hit and miss... the best day increased the charge on a mobile phone by 6%...
