An Analog Fan

[srikanthuserid]

I often like to guess what concepts are before reading descriptions because I enjoy the surprise in being totally off-base. This Analog Fan uses an old trick with gears and pulleys to generate enough power for 5 minutes of hair blowing wind. Not meant to cool a room down but it keeps air moving and all without electricity. By the way, I originally thought it was a clock.

It is not a watch. It is a fan which works manually.

Input is from wire. One have to pull the wire and one full length gives a 5 min wind. No electricity required.

[/quote]Yup that's wat i refer to as manual input...this can be improvised by looking at alternatives for manual work...
