Shhh!! Don't Tell PETA

Hamster inspires teenage inventor

An energetic hamster called Elvis gave a budding engineer a bright idea for charging his mobile phone.

Peter Ash, 16, from Somerset, realised that Elvis's fave activity of playing on his wheel could be used to create electricity to charge his mobile.

As part of his GCSE coursework, he created a device where he gets 30 minutes of talk time for every two minutes that Elvis goes for a spin.
