Hello Electronics Point

I am Rich and new here, there is a specific area of electronics I am interested in and will no doubt be seeking advice.
As a heads up it is Piezo Ceramic Bimorphs, it would be good as a starter for 10 to know if anybody has had experience with these devices.

Regards
Richard

I had a play with one of these a few months back. They will even produce a 50Hz sine wave from the vibration of a bench lamp held 2 inches away. Here they are.
