Not the smartest way to do it, since you can explode a power supply. I had a line conditioner (Tripplite) that I was able to tweak a small rheostat and jack up it's output voltage. So the conditioner output more than the standard 120v(I think I ran it at 123v). This in turn made the transformer in the power supply output the 5v I needed. Although it worked for me this is dangerous, try at your own risk.
-Drive alternators with AC power inverter as a generator
-Drive alternators to charge batteries in electric
car
-Drive compressor motor into scuba or other air tank for a portable compressor
-Drive water pump for pressure washer
-Multiple combinations for a hydralic pump/ram, car lift, log splitter, Heavy duty trash/yard waste compactor
-Gas powered Auger
