Vince: If your electret contains the FET follower inside, the typical source impedence of the FET is about 1.5K to 3.0K Ohms. I usually AC couple the output
(with say a 1 uF cap observe polarity carefully) to a 5 to 10K load.

Usually anything from a 1.5 V battery to a 6 V battery or well filtered supply
will work (I usually put a few K Ohms in series with the supply.

If your supply lines are long, it is best to put a 1 uF cap and a .01 uF cap
across the electret supply input and ground.

They do love to hum so shield well.
