i want to generate electricity from piezoelectric load cell by application of load on it, but i don't know which type of cell to use and from where to get it? i want good efficiency, please help me out.

A piezoelectric load cell is a type of transducer that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. It is typically made of a piezoelectric material, such as quartz or ceramic, that creates a voltage when subjected to mechanical stress.
When a force is applied to a piezoelectric load cell, it causes the piezoelectric material to deform and generate a voltage. This voltage can then be harnessed and used to power electrical devices.
Piezoelectric load cells are commonly used in sensors, switches, and energy harvesting devices. They are also used in industrial and scientific equipment to measure force, pressure, and weight.
Piezoelectric load cells have several advantages, including high efficiency, low maintenance requirements, and the ability to generate electricity from a wide range of mechanical forces. They are also environmentally friendly and do not produce any emissions or waste.
One limitation of piezoelectric load cells is that they can only generate small amounts of electricity, so they are not suitable for high-power applications. They also have a limited lifespan and may need to be replaced after a certain number of cycles. Additionally, the efficiency of piezoelectric load cells can be affected by factors such as temperature and humidity.
