After 2 days, the felt was beautifully covered by crystals. To light up 4 blue crystals, I used 2 coin batteries. | After 2 days, the felt was beautifully covered by crystals. To light up 4 blue crystals, I used 2 coin batteries. | ||

- | **(how to make the circuit) To be completed** | + | **RESULTS** |
+ | |||
+ | The crystal looks nice on one side and less on the other and it is slightly conductive. In order to fully light up a green LED, I used 2 x 4,5 V batteries. | ||

+ | **ISSUES** | ||
+ | |||
+ | The crystal is not very conductive. The next time I will try to change the solution bath every 2 days to see if bigger crystals conductive electricity better and embed conductive thread in the crystal. | ||
