#124945 - Ge.
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Hi Steve,

Here are a few brainstorm-type thoughts. I haven't thought any of this through, so any of it may well be completely stupid.

By dealing with <600 mV, you immediately eliminate anything that is solid state and silicon based. Look for something in a Ge based device.

My second comment would be that if you use a fan with minimal angular inertia (including that induced by the magnetic influence between the stator and rotor) you might be able to let the rising air flow assist in getting things started by turning the blades a bit.

My next thought is that if you use a turbine blade turning a small low-inertia generator to provide at least some of the power required.
