Step 27Finished!
Test your personal powerPlant to see how it works!
Turn the handcrank for a little while and then push the button on the switch and watch as the visual multimeter displays the amount of power the battery has. Set your powerPlant out in the sun and monitor how much energy it collects. Then use your powerPlant to power devices. We powered our mini arduino with the powerPlant, see what you can power!
Modify your powerPlant to suit your needs. John O'Malley changed out the gears for a rig on his bicycle (see images below).
Have Fun!

This project is awesome! thank you. Its nice to see an instructable like this that is so directly applicable. Everybody could put one of these to use. And even if you don't like awesome projects the instruction is hands down the best in the competition. I love the diagrams and the pictures are all very helpful. You have my vote!
