Rechargeable batteries by hand

So instead of wasting time by plugging batteries into a charger, why not charge them by your hand? Designed by Qian Jiang, winding up the batteries for five minutes will give them maybe 45% of battery life. This would be great for emergencies when there is no electricity.
