The piezo experiment containing the Radio Shack piezo *element*, part number 273-073:
The piezo element stores enough energy to flash the efficient LED about once or twice per day, producing several micro amps. Although, when we consider the average *DC* power, is a bit lower than 2V * 10 pA! There is it again, the mysterious 10 pA! What is occurring is that the piezo element is constantly producing ~ 10 pA of current, and this charge is slowly building up, which can flash the LED when sufficient stored. This is in agreement with the previous long term piezo element experiment that showed the highly shielded piezo element produced ~ 10 pA for a few months. It was still producing the 10 pA, and showed no signs of decreases, but I put an end to the long term experiments so as to do other experiments.
This is exciting because once again the 10 pA pops up, but it's disappointing in that the experiments still have not broken the 10 pA DC barrier. So, regardless of how many components are placed in parallel, the DC current remains 10 pA. There is one idea, an old idea, based on the fact that the net Thermal noise across two similar elements is sqrt(2) less than one element. That is fundamental conventional physics. Due to the diode square law, this works out in agreement with the measurements. So, the old idea is to place a *sufficient* inductor between each diode or piezo element to see if this can produce DC current over 10 pA. The question is, how much inductance is sufficient, and at what frequencies does it need to work at.
