Re: Using piezoelectric to power a laser diode?

John,

All i can say is holy cow! I didn't expect schematics!!! I'll have to
give that a try!

The illumination just has to be long enough for the human eye to detect
it, which i'm assuming is going to be a function of brightness, but at
5mW i'm assuming 20-50ms is plenty..(my 200 upper end range is on the
long side)...lots of assuming though, eh?

I do like the mousetrap idea, though... If you can't smash em, blind
em. :)

Thanks again!!!!
