CASE ANALYSIS

Scenario

A hand-crank dynamo generates DC electricity to light an incandescent lamp through a fuse and switch, with a smoothing capacitor across the lamp.

Key decisions

  • Model the hand crank dynamo as a DC supply using type=dc_supply
  • Include a fuse and SPST switch for safe manual control
  • Add a smoothing capacitor across the lamp to reduce flicker

When to reuse this

Use for DIY emergency lanterns, educational generator demos, or any off-grid hand-powered lighting project.
