Has anyone seen these?  Surely we can use these for something...I have no idea what at the moment, but, I just wanted everyone to know that these are out there.  I wonder if a spinning wheel can use a cam to hit one of these as it spins?  The harder the force, the lower the resistance...so, more energy can flow in as a wheel spins?

Interesting devices.

 Ya need to invent a chick meter that can be attached to a bar stool leg that lights up led's according to the weight of the person so when a person is too drunk to realize they are hitting on a cow they will be saved from their condition of being blind drunk. You can call it the (wing man). The pitch- If your higher then a kite you better have a wing man to keep you bird from crashing into a mountain.

Doug1:

Very creative thinking there, ha ha.  Excellent name for it too.  Maybe even use infrared leds so you need special glasses to see them?  That way, not just anyone would benefit from your device.

Good thinking.
