You want to be green, don’t you. You get sick at the thought of those orphans the Chinese burn for fuel, and what it does to the air. You need to do your part to counter that. You need a Hamster Powered Generator.
Just like the jokes you’d tell about your first beater car, the HPG is a hamster wheel that turns a dynamo and charges a battery when your little friend feels like some exercise.
It won’t power your house, but it’s handy for charging a small battery for a night light. You can do it with basic hobby parts, if you’re interested. We just like that someone actually built this.

The real question to ask is if the hamster produces more energy on this wheel then the energy required to make it’s food in the first place. If the answer is yes, then I the mob converting their operations from milk producing rats to energy producing hamsters!

Come on, people… Hickey makes a comment about Chinese orphans going up in smoke and not one incendiary or even snarky comment from the CG readership? Step up! *hangs head in shame*

The light must be visible for the hamster to see in. With feedback like that, who knows where hamster evolution might turn.
