What types of rowing machine have adjustable resistance and don't need electricity?

I’m looking for rowing machines, and I’m wondering which kinds have adjustable resistance without using electricity. Can you help me figure this out?

From a very lazy google session, it looks like flywheel is my cheapest option. I also can’t tell whether the magnetic types require electricity (it seems like they would, but maybe they are human-powered somehow?).

- I don’t care whether the console and stuff work without electricity. I just need the core machine itself (and the resistance) to work without electricity.
– When I say “adjustable resistance,” I mean a setting that I can change, not just resistance that changes in response to how hard I’m rowing.
– The best way to find this out is to look at the product documentation. HOWEVER I am looking for advice to help me with my online search for a used rower that will work. I’ll be going through a lot of listings and it likely won’t be practical for me to look up the specs for every single one.
