I was involved with this, both the HHV test and the programme. Bloody hard work and I was almost too tired to sleep at the end of the day.
crimsonape - the company 'Electric Pedals' who were involved in the programme sell the rigs that were used on the programme via ebay. So if you fancy powering some of your household gadgets...
winston - seems like a low power output, yeah. Frustratingly, the rigs were apparently only 25% efficient so a shedload of potential power was lost. Also, a lot of people were spinning on very low gears for the first part of the day, not realising that they weren't putting anything into the system.
