We have both a water/wind/solar and a bicycle powered exhibit here - I'll find out from our engineers what the costs were and whether they'd be willing to pass on the designs.

Greetings, fellow museum folks. Does anyone know of a good energy exhibit that examines wind/solar/water energy? I am looking in the neighborhood of $10,000 - $15,000?
If not, does anyone know of a smaller exhibit that would be human powered that would then turn on a DVD player? (We would like it to be either a rowing machine, a bicycle, a treadmill, cross country skis).
If not in existence, who might be good to build us a good one here on the west coast?
