Hello Im Jon and Ive been experimenting with crystal cells and getting dramatic current reactions Ive been posting my progress on my youtube channel and Im thinking this is the best place to share my results.
although my cell before the most recent cell has failed wich Im sure is from me man-handling it but, other cells still have current
From start - today just watch them in order

!!!!!!!!!Oh yeah and don't forget about my little scientist !!!!!!!

Youtube just crashed opera again, so I watched only the first video. Seems like galvano voltaic effect to me, when 2 metals are involved. then oxidation of one of them could be the reason why you get decreasing output.
Some people use cement batteries, that is actually a crystal battery too, but portland cement, like concrete, will crystalize for about 30 days (chalk crystals are growing, connecting the sand, making it hard), so these cement batteries last for a month or so.
Currently I am growing rochelle salt crystals in a magnetic field... we'll see if it has any impact on the piezo electric features of the salts. I also like to mix in metals, so the ions are built into the crystal mesh, as long as their molecules are compatible. Copper seems to work, I get green crystals.
Wish you good luck with your experiments. Penny LED looked good. Tho, in that 1st vid you were pretty tired? I really need a coffee after that ;D .
Regards
Thanks for your support
When YouTube comes back up make sure you finish watching because my last cell I discover how to get over 100 miliamps out of the cell with minimal surface area
And be sure to subscribe because I have a device on the drawing board that is renewable To sustain the current
All the best
Jon
Idk where this e came from lol... E
