Pittsburgh – November 10, 2026 -- A Massachusetts inventor is offering THE FIFTH WHEEL, an adapter that generates electricity while an electric vehicle is moving, for licensing or sale to manufacturers and marketers.
Adapter charges the auxiliary battery while the vehicle is in motion
The inventor, from Canton, Mass., designed the device as an auxiliary battery-charging feature for electric vehicles. It is intended to remove the need to stop and recharge at home or at a public charging station, which the inventor says increases efficiency and avoids delays. The stated goal is to let drivers cover longer distances without recharging stops.
