Brooks Sensei, Thanks for the education! I am familiar with the basic concept of piezo-electric crystals, used in many cigarette lighters to generate sparks. The EM ceramics, however, ordinarily are not compressed or squeezed or impacted at all. I am just starting to learn about this business, though, and my ignorance exceeds my knowledge.
