Ananova reports that a British school boy has invented a mobile phone charger for a school science project. They already exist of course, but the novelty of this one is that it's powered by hamster. Peter Ash, of Somerset, came up with the idea of attaching his hamster's exercise wheel to a generator to power up his mobile phone overnight while he sleeps ... but does his sister? It was she who gave Peter the idea after she complained that Elvis (the hamster) was keeping her awake at night by playing for hours on his exercise wheel.
And is it just me - or does the hamster look really uncomfortable about the whole deal?!
