Electricity has long been considered one of the most important human needs in the world. Over time, along with the growth of modern technologies, it has increasingly shown its importance, especially when there was a pandemic. People were pushed to further embrace modern communication systems and online transaction systems in the different sectors of society. Thus, the absence of electricity even for a short period of time, cannot be denied as a great inconvenience, not only to the sectors that heavily rely on it, but almost to everyone. This paper presents the self-running electric generator. The objective is to build its portable prototype and test its effectiveness. Using experimental method with descriptive and developmental approaches, we developed the prototype and performed the experiment to observe its performance and determine its effectiveness. Results show that the current design is not yet effective. Nevertheless, we have come up with a recommendation that could possibly improve the performance of the product in the next endeavor. Hence, this study serves as another springboard for future researchers and inventors to step forward in pursuing related research and innovations.
