A portable apparatus (100) is disclosed for generating electrical power comprising a stator (104) comprising a plurality of coils, coil units or coil segments for independently generating electrical power, wherein the stator (104) comprises a printed coil laminate comprising a sheet of insulator material and a printed conductor comprising conductive ink printed upon the sheet of insulator material arranged to form the plurality of coils, coil units or coil segments and a reciprocator comprising a magnet (102), the reciprocator being responsive to vibrations and/or shocks and moves in that regard within the environs of the stator (104) so as to generate electrical power. The apparatus is connectable to a portable electronic device (101) so as to power that device and/or to a storage device for storing the generated electrical power. |
