What's the oldest piece of tech you still have running?
  • Rega Planar series, for sure. They are pricey, though. I'd hazard that there are some Pro-ject models that are likely superior at a lower price point than the Rega's.

    Again, nothing against yours, it's a good one. But there's almost always something better, and in this case that holds true.

  • Is “harvesting” small amounts of electricity a fools errand?
  • There's actually a decent amount of research into exactly this sort of thing, called, appropriately, "energy harvesting". Depending on the application, it can be fairly effective. I know that vibration energy harvesting has been successfully in machinery monitoring applications, for example. I haven't looked much into stray EM harvesting, but I'm sure it is possible..most likely to supplement a primary energy source rather than as the main source itself. But, yeah, for sure it's an interesting topic with a fairly good amount of study into it...I think the University of Michigan had a few good research programs related to harvesting for ultra low power applications. You night check out some of what they've done
