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 a video of 3 LEDs (2-265000 MCD and 1-26500 MCD 10 mm Ultra brights)running from a single AA battery. Each LED requires between 4 and 4.5 vdc and over 100 mA’s each to light. For more info, see overunitydotcom in the Joule thief topic. This is …
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 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 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…
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”…
Avast!!!! Lighting 200 LEDs on a single AA battery using the modified Fuji Joule Thief circuit. The battery, which is old and nearly dead, will not even light 1 single led by itself. A new AA battery will not light one of these leds alone. More to come…
I took pieces of different circuits and joined them to make a 555 timer “Pulsed Invered Joule Thief”. It uses Slayer007’s 2″ toroid coil, Kubikop’s 555 timer pulsed joule thief circuit, and my inverting…
