ABSTRACT The drill-powered electric bike is an innovative, cost-effective, and sustainable transportation solution designed to leverage the power of a standard cordless electric drill. This concept integrates a cordless drill into the drive train of a conventional bicycle to provide electrical, enabling increased speed and reduced pedaling effort. By attaching the drill to the rear wheel or chain mechanism via a custom adapter, the bike harnesses the rotational energy of the drill to power the wheel. The drill-powered electric bike consists of several key components, including the drill, a motor, a gear mechanism, and the frame. The drill's battery is used to power the motor, which in turn drives the rear wheel through a system of gears or pulleys. The drill’s variable speed control allows the rider to adjust the bike’s speed, providing a flexible and user- friendly experience. The primary aim is to demonstrate how an existing power tool, such as a drill, can be repurposed to serve as a power source for a transportation system, combining practicality, energy efficiency, and sustainability. This project also explores the challenges and benefits of such an approach, including power limitations, safety concerns, and the potential for low-cost, small-scale EV solutions. The outcomes of this fabrication have the potential to encourage further research into affordable electric mobility solutions for urban and rural areas. The drill-powered electric bike demonstrates the viability of using simple, readily available tools for creating efficient, green transportation alternatives
