I cannot facepalm any harder. Dude that's some 8yr old question shit

I mean... regenerative braking is a thing.

My hybrid Prius C had this, and yes, you actually can build up some useful amount of charge from just rolling down a decently large or long hill, and you can also run the car on pure EV mode, though you're probably not gonna top 20 mph on a flat road.

Obviously this does not create an over unity situation or perpetual motion machine, but, if this guy can figure out a way to put a regenerative braking type device onto an E-Bike, or maybe motorcycle/moped, in a way that isn't stupid expensive...

That could increase overall range, and I think it would be neat.

Though I... don't really know why you wouldn't just use one battery for the whole system, just have a modulation/regulation system for it.

If he removes battery 2 and charge directly battery 1 (as it's pointless either way and adds weight) maybe he can figure out what's wrong.

Or it's ai slop.

It's not free energy, but there's at least one bike called the Pi-Pop that works this way in order to spread the energy demand from hills across more distance for the rider. It's an electric bike you can't plug in, it only charges from moving

Fun fact, similar tech is already widely used, in gas cars too, that's how the battery is charged :)

Has to be a joke

Someone has been spending too much time on ChatGPT.

I have a better one: charge from temperature gradients as it moves through new areas.
