Spin Your Way to a Charged Device

We all have battery-powered devices, and we all need to charge them up. We’ve always thought that human energy should be a part of the equation, and now Nendo Design is capitalizing on that, with the Denqul, a sleek, understated charger. Powered with a flip and a spin of your wrist, the cylindrical device elegantly uses the same dynamo method as emergency crank lights, albeit in a much more sleek manner.

After spinning the device to charge it, it sits upright along with it’s accompanying desktop set, to serve as holders for your digital devices. Via DesignBoom:
