Discharge device for liquid pasty or powdered media with a housing a discharge opening (10b) for discharging the medium a reservoir (14a) for storing the medium before its discharge and a linearly movable handle (10) which causes medium to be conveyed from the reservoir to the discharge opening wherein the discharge device has an electrical load (20 24) and a converter (50) which is designed to convert the mechanical energy introduced at the handle into electrical energy for feeding the electrical load wherein a gear (30) is provided for supplying the mechanical energy introduced at the handle to the converter by means of which gear (30) the linear movement of the handle or of a tensioning member (440) of a spring energy store that can be tensioned by means of the handle is converted into a non rotatory oscillating movement of a pendulum member (36) and the converter is designed to convert the mechanical energy of the oscillating pendulum member into electrical energy.
