Hey Wad, re: human power, there's at least one company that makes the
mobile foot pedal charger already, and is marketing it to laptop and
cellphone users.

It looks pretty efficient compared to the yoyo-dual strings (using 2
arms so one can charge during both clockwise and counterclockwise) and
already natural to people since sewing machines have used foot pedal
power for over 100(?) years now?
