Small power source
I was planning to make LED jewelery, but would need a very small power source.
In the best case it could be powered by the body's movement.
Is there anything small enough to bit on a wrist, yet can power about 10 LEDs?

I would use a car battery
Just kidding unless you are trying to kill yourself
Probably a watch battery and there are some amazingly thin & small ones

car battery=12v . He will do not kill himself, in any case. When you don't know, don't speak.

you could use a charging system like in "Shake it like a Tic-Tac"
although, there is some debate in the comments about how to wind the coil, how much to wind, etc.
