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 we are illuminating a 40 watt tube from a single AA battery. This is a modified version of Josepino’s disposable camera circuit. I have used this same circuit to light 2 of these 48″ tubes end to end. I have also illuminated 400 leds with this sam…
This is my “boxed” Simple–Super Joule Ringer 2.0. It was specifically designed for use on my 32 ft. sailboat when I’m at sea for 3 to 5 days. It will also come in handy…
This shows my replication of Lasersaber’s “Super Joule Ringer 2.0” running with multiple bulbs. I also show the amp draw on the system running on a small 12 volt battery.
This is a replication of Lasersaber’s “Super Joule Ringer 2.0” lighting setup. It runs on a 12 volt battery and just three parts—-a special handmade transformer, one transistor, and a 110 volt LED lightbulb….
This is a replication of the “Peanutbutter291” Super Joule Ringer 2.0 “Tuned” LED light. I show it here with my modifications running a 110v 7.5 watt LED lightbulb on 12volts @ about a 1/4…
Making progress with with the Joule Ringer. The capacitor is 32000uF 20V. Incoming search terms:skema joule ringer
The Function Generator FG is the “Volume Control” of the Ainslie circuit. The positive excursion controls the level of turn on of the Q1 mosfet, essentially pulsed DC. The negative excursion supplies more or…
Lighting incandescent, halogen, CFL and LED bulbs with the Joule Ringer is now a piece of cake. Updated schematic and links coming soon at: laserhacker.com
This is the first time I have been able to keep a Joule Thief type device running a CFL on just an electrolytic capacitor.
