mechanical engineering student

Did not pay much attention in high school

When the battery runs out, you pull over and "pedal" to recharge the battery, then you're good to go again!

Nice to get a moment to pull out a classic

This is satire… right? I hope it is

I had this exact idea... when I was 7. That was before I was introduced to newtonian physics.

Looks like it could even be AI style with all the emojis.

Either way, thanks I hate it.

Perpetual motion machine aside, where tf is bro going that the range of an ebike isn't enough, but the speed is

This guy apparently doesn’t understand the first and second laws of thermodynamics. However, in his defense, this is sorta how regenerative braking works, but with less complexity.

Mechanical engineering student huh? Good to know he didn't attend class on day 1 of dynamics

Bro forgot to pay attention to thermodynamics.

Wow, excessive emojis and em-dashes... Not ai at all

Either he's lying about being a mechanical engineer or the barrier to entry to become a mechanical engineer is embarrassingly low.

It this guy seriously proposing a perpetual motion machine for the purposes of EV charging? Also not that it really matters but who the hell has range anxiety on an electric bicycle. You get 30 miles out of those things easily, what sort of bike rides is he doing where you have to recharge that more than once a month?

He should try recharging a solar panel with a light powered by the solar panel. Just achieving infinite power.

Why not cut out the middle man and directly charge battery 2 with battery 1? Switch and repeat.

Newton? Never heard of him.

With this many emojis and em dashes, he's probably engagement farming using llm content, regardless of the thermodynamics gaps in logic

This has to be a parody account right?

It's almost as if one object perpetually moves something that creates a form of motion perpetually to continuously move that first item. Like a continuous motion machine or perpetual movement apparatus. Something like that. I feel like my naming is close, though.

Seems like satire to me. Pretty funny too.

Techbros rediscovering old principles, a tale as old as....well, since the tech industry.

This guy is only telling us part of the truth. You actually need three batteries. The third battery is hooked up to a solar and wind generator. Only then can you achieve true energy independence.
