I think you are just smelling the dust, etc., that has built up on the resistance unit. The unit gets very hot during work. Where do you think the energy you generate goes? It is converted to heat, and disipated by those fins on the unit. This is sorta like the first time a heater is turned on in the fall.

If we could just get units with generators on them and convert that power to stored electricity we could be on to something.
