Check out quint builds water pumped experiment
they go over some good stuff
gravity pulley generator storage energy density is relatively low compared to what one might expect at first
reliability can be fairly nice, timekeeping devices often require relatively little power, so that's a nice match!
there's at least one project that used weights to generate electricity for basic lighting, where recharging is just lifting a bag of rocks or something. low power but decent runtime and ease of use in the absence of electrochemical cells
