I know what a piezo is, but what is a piezoelectric plate? Where can I buy them at? Radio Shack says they have never heard of them.
I am building (novice electronics) a circuit that requires a piezoelectric plate.
Is this seperate from a piezo?
Thanks

I have a rayovac 15 minute battery charger, and when i go to charge the batteries, it charges for about three minutes and then shuts off. When i went to put the batteries in the camera, they were empty! Is it the charger, or the batteries? I've had it for about nine months. Thanks!

The room in my apt. comes with wall outlets that do not have a ground hole in them. I saw something at WalMart that converts them into outlets with grounds. It is just something that plugs into the 2-prong and you plug the grounded device into that.

I was wondering if it would be safe if I am going to be using a grounded surge protector with this converter. Will the ground actually be functional? If not, is this unsafe?

Our condo unit has 6 smoke detectors throughout. When smoke in one condo (from cooking or fireplace) sets off smoke detector in one unit, all other units go off. The detectors are connected to the ceiling and have a battery. When the battery is low, it emits a beeping sound. When I have replaced the battery, there are wires that come from the ceiling that are plugged alongside the battery. That leads me to believe the smoke detector was hardwired with a battery backup. Now condo assoc. is saying the smoke detectors must be electrically connected with one another mandated by the fire dept. and that we will be charged $40 for the replacement of our individual smoke detector. My question is, what is the difference in what I have now and something they say will be electrically connected when all of our alarms go off at the same time now. They say it is in case the electricity goes off. But isn't that what the battery backup is for? Thanks.

I want to make a FM receiver to operate in the ranges of television audio, but I'm not sure if it is even possible to listen to television that way. My objective here is to be able to watch tv with the sound turned down while listening through headphones on the receiver. I don't have a headphone jack on my television so if you can think of any other way I'd like to hear it. Plus I've already built an ear amplifier but that really wasn't what I was going for. By the way, I ordered samples of the MAX2607 (150-300MHz), the MAX2608 (300-500MHz), and MAX2609 (500-650MHz).
