Regarding using multiple crystals in a round - triggering off the same miss - it's the DM's job to put reasonable limits on the number of free actions you can perform in a round / at a time.

In this case, I think most reasonable DMs would say one cognizance crystal per failed roll.  They could errrata it just to make sure this is clear, but I don't feel that's necessary.

Well, your first idea, Bredae, is unusable.  Level 1 At Will are not that different in power than a level 27.  Not enough so, that people would just keep their low-level At-Wills for the easy regens.

The 2nd idea seems over-kill.  I mean, 7-1/2 level (which maxxes at 1 and minimum at 0) is just...  o.O.  Better off just saying that only Heroic level characters can use the level 4, Paragon the level 14, and Epic the level 24's.  Which.... I think is a bad idea.... since you can still use like 20 on an encounter at not a huge cost once you're a couple of levels above the Crystal's level.

I still think the best solution is Level 4 Daily, levels 14 and 24 Encounter.

So I can be like everybody else!!!  :D :D :D

You are Red/Blue!

Given non psionic characters get to use power jewels which psionic characters cannot make use of I would say the low level versions at least are already balance.  I do want these crystals for my psionic characters but mostly because I feel they miss out elsewhere.
