I'm assuming they need constant torsion or flexing to produce electricity but what sort of amounts are we talking about and how big do they need to be to light up an LED? Would a small crystal be enough to light an LED if subject to centripetal force for example?

That's what I thought, but if you keep it under load/flex it still won't produce any more voltage/Amps other than the first time?
