This is not helpful 'til it takes less energy to build than it harnesses over time. I'd imagine we're a long way from that at this point. Still, I'm very excited about this. And the folks working on it are clearly "brilliant." This is great, but let’s not forget the old, energy out > energy in adage.

In condenser mic, they are fed with a current first. Anyway, more developments in this field is anticipated and welcome. A electret device producing energy on its own, is new to me.

Washing machines. HVAC blowers. Copy machines and printers. Hard drive arrays. Anywhere we try to dampen vibration in stationary objects (where weight is not an issue) we could generate some electricity to "give back" rather than just trying to absorb the energy with rubber mats and shock absorbers. As a side note, one of the XPrize alternative power car contestants is looking to generate some power from shock absorbers. And anyone who has ever walked over a bridge knows that they vibrate in traffic. Lots of places we could harness some energy that gets wastes otherwise.
