Abstract
A device, system, and method for providing electrical power to an electrically isolated region utilizing an electrically insulating drive shaft to transmit rotational energy over an electrically isolated gap to an electrical generator disposed in the electrically isolated region. Electrical power generated by the generator is used to power at least one electronic device in the electrically isolated region or to charge a battery, while maintaining electrical isolation.
