Hi. I want to make an assembly in which when one clicks a switch, it lights an infrared LED for 1/30 of a second.
Basically, instead of having a switch and a battery, i use a linear generator as a switch, giving current only when pressed to light LED. Like any linear generators, when one pushes the switch, the magnet (NIB) part moves along the center of the copper winding coils, creating currents. The whole process last a fraction of a second(just like pressing any mechanical switches).If i use the magnet of this shape (attachment file) with diameter 2cm and length 3cm with copper winding at outer surface of 900 turns(300x3 overlapping turns), and tap the magnet so it moves a short distance quickly through the windings like pressing switches, is there a possibility that it can light infrared LED 1.2 volt for 1/30th of a second? Has anyone ever done something similar? Will increasing thickness of the magnet ring from 1.5mmto 2mm matter significantly?
Thank you
