Joule Thief: Tutorial: Basic JT Made From Recycled TV Parts
By request, a TKTutorial on making a simple Basic Joule Thief from parts scavenged from a discarded TV and a yard light and/or a CFL base. I only found a couple of transistor types…

The 15kV supply that I popped a couple days ago is now repaired. I first disconnected the HV section’s primary from the driver transistors, and powered it up by simply hooking the Interstate F43…
2x 2n3055 npn bipolar transistors 2x ignition coils with no resistors -Test leads for connections -at least one 12vDC 3 watt led bulb -analog ammeter 0-5 amp (or 0-1Amp would work:) -12 volt battery…

Using an old microchip, it’s possible to build a simple low voltage oscillator. In this case, i’m using an LM339N, a Quad Comparator. Looking at the datasheet, quite often an equivalent circuit diagram will…
just a short update as promised – 4 coils 4 mags motor and 4 mags generator’s rotor (with no “smart” coil yet) running from two transistors’ “driver” (actually there’s no driver – just two…
The JT Basic circuit is used with a 1n914 (or 1n4148) diode in place of the Base Resistor. Cathode towards transistor Base. The circuit is the Basic 2n2222 or 2n3904 JT, available everywhere. the…
very sensitive single transistor oscillator running kind of an electrostatic Franklin bells; two transistors’ oscillator alt-lighting setup running 12V 85W headlight and 120V 60W halogen light; four transistors’ inverter 60Hz output
Testing out my new Variable Power and Variable Freq driver i built for the Smith project. I basically built a variable version of Don’s NST 🙂 Using a 555timer with added Lm393 to give…
Description: 6x LED oscillators, running from the powered generated by 1 source of water. The top of a coffee jar has plain water in it and the electrodes, made of galvanized steel and copper…
