Babies suck on pacifiers a lot. Little kids do also. It looks like they are really working hard - but there is no way to know _how_ hard.
Pacifiers with weighted backs are nothing new - these stand on the back when set down with the nipple in the air as opposed to lying on your precious Hellboy
comics. I propose that a tiny lightbulb be set in this weighted back, completely encased in clear plastic. Two wires and a spring extend into the nipple. When sucked, these wires move together and apart, generating power. The glow of the bulb would correspond to suck power.

possibly resulting in a set of teeth like Ken Dodd. |

Well ... I'm not sure I want to put wires and a spring in a baby's mouth. But it would be cute to see the nuk flashing as it bobs up and down. Might freak the baby out or make him cross-eyed. |

Diapers. Yet another untapped energy source. |

Who benefits? You realize that babies are rarely actively sucking on a pacifier, yes? And when they are, do you really want them to light up like Rudolph? I'd be afraid that either the kid would grow up cross-eyed, addicted to its pacifier or both. |

Please list reason. Certainly not "widely" known to exist. |

FJ's linky product is worked by batteries. bung's idea is for baby to light up the dummy (pacifier) by suck power. |

I don't agree with the mfd. |
|

I don't understand why you're picking on Ken Dodd. Don't all Brits have teeth like that? |

Can't stand dummies/pacifiers . Might as well put a piece of duct tape over the kids mouth. - |

I'm suspecting the intentional absence of the word "piezoelectric". |
