🔥 An Unbelievable Innovation from Bihar Goes Viral
In a surprising turn of events, a 17-year-old student from Patna, Bihar, has shocked the internet with his invention of a mobile charger that works without electricity — and costs less than ₹1 to build.
⚡ What’s Special?
The charger runs on kinetic energy and body heat, using scrap parts from discarded toys and basic copper wiring. The student, Aman Verma, claims that it can charge a basic phone in under 20 minutes, and has demonstrated it working on live video.

👨🔬 Backed by Local Professors
Professors from Patna Science College have confirmed that the invention is scientifically possible, though they suggest it needs refinement before large-scale production.
🔥 The Viral Innovation Taking India by Storm
In a small village outside Patna, Bihar, a class 12 student named Aman Verma has become an internet sensation after a video of his self-made mobile charger went viral on social media. Unlike any conventional charger, this device doesn’t need electricity, a power bank, or solar panels — it uses manual kinetic energy generated by motion, inspired by dynamo torchlights and wristwatches.
🔧 How It Works
-
The charger is built using:
-
A small copper coil
-
A piece of magnet from a damaged speaker
-
Scrap wires from old toys
-
A plastic bottle and a fan blade
-
-
When the device is shaken or spun manually, kinetic energy turns into electric current, enough to charge a basic feature phone in 15–20 minutes.
🧪 It uses Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction, a concept from physics that allows energy to be generated via a moving magnetic field.
🎓 Recognized by Teachers, Ignored by Authorities
Though Aman’s physics teacher shared the prototype online — gaining over 5 million views on Instagram and YouTube Shorts — no government support has yet been offered. However, local engineering colleges have invited him to present his prototype, and many on social media are calling for startup incubation support.
🧍♂️ Why This Is a Big Deal
-
Rural Impact: 100M+ Indians still face daily power cuts — this could help them stay connected.
-
Disaster Relief: Emergency responders or villagers during floods could benefit.
-
Sustainability: No batteries, no waste, eco-friendly charging solution.
🗣️ What People Are Saying
“If this boy was in the US, he'd already be in a Silicon Valley lab.”
“This is the kind of ‘Made in India’ we need to see more of.”
Even Bollywood actors and influencers like Sonu Sood and Ashneer Grover have liked and shared his demo clip.
💭 Aman’s Message
“I just want people to believe that even someone from a small village can make something big.”
✅ What’s Next?
-
Aman is planning to improve the design with waterproofing and USB output.
-
He’s seeking help to patent the idea and protect it from being copied by foreign manufacturers.
