Re: [DIYbio] Re: lamps from quartz natural energy.

Maybe you'd be interested in these crystals used for radio:

Lithium is an amazingly useful thing for energy storage, but only when it is refined carefully and then energy is put _into_ it. Lithium in rocks has no more energy than the surrounding rock, and it takes energy to purify lithium.

One way in which Lithium _can_ provide energy is through nuclear fusion. But that also requires more energy as input than you get as output, using today's technology. And it still requires pure lithium..

Piezoelectric generators do exist but they don't normally use natural crystals. And they are very weak, studied only as ways to provide trickle power for microelectronics from people walking on them.

Yes piezoelectricity may be an option but would like to investigate on stones and quartz contaning litium.

Anyone know an experiment or research on quartz natural energy?
