Is there such a thing as a battery that can last forever? It appears there just might be!
It’s called Crystal Power Cells, created by Canadian scientist John Hutchinson, who has been exploring free energy and anti-gravity.
The power seems to be generated through the piezoelectric effect, which generates electricity through vibrations of ambient heat or ambient radiation from the sun. Each power cell generates less than a volt at around 60 miliamps, but they promise to continuously provide power for an indefinite amount of time.

Clocks can run on lemons!
Lee, you are looking at the way he is measuring it wrong. He is looking at the voltage at the battery terminals, then switching the meter to amps and measuring the short circuit current.
Why would he measure the short circuit current when he is trying to show the amount of amps they can deliver, you need to show the amps it can deliver under load in order to see what the battery can put out, and when it is hooked up under load you can’t show volts. So am I missing something? What would be the point of showing short circuit amps?
If you put a short on the batteries you ARE showing the max amps the batteries can develop. The voltage is zero, but what do you expect from a guy with this little knowledge of what he is doing?
In order to produce the max amps it needs the max load. I’m just going with what I’ve learned. V=IR, V is constant in a battery, say 1.5v for a AA, so to get the max amps you need to apply a proper resistance load. The resistance from the multimeter is not the max R possible is it? So how could you get the max current? http://www.instructables.com/answers/12v-DC-battery-amp-measurement/ is there some links you could provide on measuring amps on a short circuit that I could educate myself with?

This could be a great science fair experiment

Hmmmmm
Any idea how it worked John?
