HR Bank
Exercise bike/powerstation/generator
HR Bank integrates an exercise bike, energy storage, and power generator. Fifteen minutes of pedalling charges a smartphone; an hour charges a laptop. It connects with renewable sources, storing excess energy in its 2kWh battery for later use, powering home appliances during blackouts. This capacity can charge 20+ laptops, run a fridge for 3 days, or make 150 coffee cups. Made from recycled aluminium, HR Bank is durable, easily repairable, and customizable with various colours and materials to suit any interior. It offers a sustainable energy management solution while promoting physical activity.
