“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 my Muller Dynamo testing unit using two paralleled Joule Thief circuits as drivers. Instead of using the standard Joule Thief coil I simple used the paired up diver coils on the Muller….
This is my new and improved earth battery running 4 ultra bright 10mm 28000 MCD LEDs. I am using a standard Joule Thief circuit wound (bifilar) on a ferrite toroid this time. An N3904…
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”…
My modified Fuji AA Joule Thief circuit lighting 300 LEDs! Each LED requires 3.5 volts to light. I am still using the old AA battery that you have seen in all of my other videos. For more information, go to Overunitydotcom in my Joule Thief topic. Thanks.
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…
Here we see a Joule thief circuit operating from a supercap only. No battery included. The supercap is 2.3 volts and 10F. I charged it up for 10 seconds with an AA (old) battery. I plan on getting larger caps for future experiments. For more informatio…
This is Kubikop’s ‘Joule Thief’ charging light circuit that I replicated. Here I show what the signal from the transistor looks like on an oscilloscope. This pulse is what is doing the work of…
My modified Fuji camera AA circuit lighting a string of 100 clear LEDs using only one wire from the circuit. All I have to do is hold my hand near the battery and it lights. When I bring my other hand close to the LED string, they get brighter. This is…
I’ve dusted off the SassyClassE SSTC for some experimentation, and I happened to discover an interesting thing. I can easily light up little LEDs near the coil using various hookups, but I was surprised…
