Abstract:
1. An electricity generator comprising: a housing having a top, a bottom and a hollow interior, and having an electric coil located on an interior surface of the housing along a portion of the hollow interior; a magnet slidably disposed within the housing and within the coil; a spring having a first spring end abutting either the top or the bottom of the housing and an opposing second spring end abutting the magnet; a kite; a tether attached to the magnet and to the kite; and wherein as the kite is subject to a wind load, the kite flies and pulls on the tether which slides the magnet through a portion of the coil toward the top of the housing thereby generating electricity and when the wind load on the kite lessens, the spring biases the magnet back toward the bottom of the housing sliding the magnet through the housing and the coil further generating electricity.
