This is two Joule Pirates (Joule Thieves) wired in parallel running off of one AA battery powering a 48″ tube. (40 watts) The funny thing is that the tube is brighter with just one circuit turned on than with my single circuit experiments from before. …
Here I show how easy and quick it is to make a simple printed circuit board for your Joule Thief. Copper clad board, the resist pen, and Ferric Chloride etching solution are available at…
The low cost Pro’sKit Inductance-Capacitance-Resistance meter performs surprisingly well and lives up to the Pro’sKit quality standard. ETA: BUT….. by another method, perhaps more reliable, I measured that resistor as 0.5 microHenry. Hmmm….. Here…
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…
Full spec, details and solution below. A variant of the Cool Joule circuit by TinManPower. See his channel for the original circuit and ongoing experiments. See Lidmotor’s channel for the circuit diagram and his…
Saw & Vacuum Auto Switch W/Time Delay Off. (LOAD SENSING) Built With Junk. Schematic / Explanation RWGresearch.com In this video i will show you my how i created a a load sensing switch for…
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…
This shows a battery that uses calcium cloride to draw moisture out of the air and help run a copper and magnesium battery. I also show a simple Joule Thief circuit that uses the…
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 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…
