Thread: Making Electricity

Me and some friends are working on an invention right now but we need to know what is the best way to make alot if electricity, that can be transfered to a recharable battery. no energy from power outlets. it also has to be pretty small about the size of a penny to the circumferece of a quarter. it has to be able to generate electricity for long periods of time. right now were thinking of magenets encased in a copper or gold gyro. please post ideas.

Umm, radio-isotopic thermoelectric perhaps?

Welcome to the forum.

let us know how it turn's out.

i've alway's been interested in making electricty..i even made a damm on a wee streem by my house.. i didn't work( i wonder why :P )

seen as you were thinking of the only way i know for sure...with the copper and magnet's.. i can't help.

go for it.. and make it happen

Try fucusing light from sun onto small copper plate (penney). wire connecting plate conducts electron flow. Heated conductors emit electron flow. By using strob effect of focused light, pulsating current flow occures. step up voltage by transformer coil to useful level. Prob is very small flow occures from heated conductor, but have thought it possible in past theorizing states of mind. Research pyrometers theory on internet and tesla coils. Hope you have luck.
