BODY HEAT POWERED FLASHLIGHT

Humans are a living energy source. We produce body heat, we walk, and our
blood flows throughout our body. All of these energy sources from our body

can be used to generate electricity. So why have we not taken advantage of

those sources, and used them, especially for people do not have access to
electricity? So why waste readily available energy that is available to every
human? This solution converts body heat into electricity, and makes
electricity available to anyone.
Now, this was quite the challenge, because your body generates a small
amount of heat, and is a small temperature differential compared to air. Each
thermo-electric generator, or peltier, only generates 0.1 volts when placed
against your skin. In order to increase that voltage, I did two things. First, I
wired three peltiers in a series circuit, so that together they generate 0.3
volts. From there, I used a joule thief circuit to boost up the voltage to power
a light, as a joule thief can take in voltages down to 0.3 volts! If you were
using this for a body heat powered USB charger, you would just use a voltage
step up module to step up the voltage to 5 volts.
The materials you will need for this project are:
3 small peltiers
2 different gauges of magnet wire
2 volt -3 volt light bulb, I highly recommend an LED, because when I used a
regular light bulb, it barely lit up, (that is why you do not see the bulb lit up
very much in the pictures), but when I used an LED, it was as bright as can
be!
Ferrite core
NPN transistor, any kind
4.7 ohm resistor (can be any type, that is just what I used)
T12 FTC tubing (it goes over fluorescent lights)
Black paint
Cardboard
Aluminum foil
Scotch tape
