A batting machine designed to improve your physical endurance.
Every time you hit a ball it picks up the sound of bat on ball and decreases the time between balls by 5%, eventually ending when you miss 5 in a row or you manage to hit one back down its throat. (This idea is part of the Home, Sweat
Home project)

Absolutely! Thank you for the laugh. |

It's too hot and humid to sleep here. 1:42am and I have the fan on full blast beside me while I chug iced water to try to cool down. The rain has stopped, an area the size of England has become a flood disaster zone from here and points south and the rising temperature is causing humidity problems. |

One small town about 80km (50miles) south of here got 43 inches of rain over the last 6 days. |

Why would you need to improve endurance whilst batting? Power and hand-eye coordination are more important. |

Perhaps, [UB], it would be more profitable
to develop a bicycle-powered flood
barrier, under the circumstances? |

Nah, the treadmill-powered gravity machine seems to have the water running away at a rate that is coping with the deluge. |

About ten years ago, playing tennis. Hurts like hell on cold mornings. |

I need one that throws the balls slower by 5% each time until I actually hit one. |
