I know that some watches have some kind of a mechanism that uses the
kinetic energy as you fling it aound on your wrist throughout the day to
charge it. Seeing as how a lot of people here wear theirNewts, would this
mechanism be able to gernerate near enough power to appreciably extend
battery life between charges? (Especially since the Newt Holster usually
holds the Newts closer to the body's center- of gravity than a watch,
which woulld probabbly affect it.)
