This is my version of the Basic Wireless JT. I was inspired to build the LED bank by Sohei Thoth, and I’ve been considering powering a JT with my wireless power system. So here’s…
This is my earth battery running a 48″ (40 watt) florescent tube. It is not at full brightness but it is lit and lit pretty well. It is much brighter than it appears on…
I am replicating a test I saw on the net where folks listened to their Joule thief circuits using an AM radio. Yes, this is still the same old AA battery as I used in all of my previous tests. Here I test a regular Joule Thief toroid circuit and the Fu…
This is a 2.3 volt 10F supercap which replaces my AA battery in the Joule Thief circuit. I charged this cap with a single AA battery for about 10 seconds prior to filming. I did the same thing about a week ago and the LED stayed illuminated for about 2…
This is a Joule Thief Flashlight. I simply modified a cheap 5 super bright LED flashlight that ran on 3 AA batteries by gutting it and using a simple Joule thief circuit which now…
“Xenomorph” has replicated my “Pulsed Inverted Joule Thief” and made signicant changes to reduce the power consumption. He has altered the 555 timer part of the circuit to shorten the “on” time of the…
This is the first part of the power measurement scope tests of the Lawrence Tseung Fleet Joule Thief circuit done by Stefan Hartmann, the admin of OverUnity.com . http://www.overunity.com/12686/is-joule-thief-circuit-gets-overunity/1065 Lawrence claimed the circuit to…
This is the ‘Automatic Solar Joule Thief’—-“Hewey”–boxed. The device is a simple Joule Thief LED/charger circuit with an automatic solar charger attached. It uses super capacitors instead of batteries to store the energy. “Hewey”…
This is a Joule Thief LED/charger circuit that is being driven automatically by a modified ‘solar garden light’ circuit. In this video I show energy being gathered by a solar cell and put into…
