Return To Generators FAQ Archive   How do generators for flashlights work just by shaking them? Answered By Editor There is a dynamo inside. It is the same technology you find on some bikes, where a small dynamo is attached to your wheel and takes energy from your cycling to power the light of the bike. A dynamo is the inverse of a motor, it has magnets inside that can turn in circles. If a magnet moves, it induces electric energy into its sourroundings. So, it transforms your kinetic energy (shaking) into light. keywords: Generators | Generator | Power Generation | Flashlight | Dynamo | Magnets | Electrical Energy | Kinetic Energy | Lights Emergency Generator Wiring Propane Emergency Generator Onan Generator Repair
