Pirate’s Lidmotor Jeanna Light Joule Thief Replication.wmv

This is my replication of Lidmotor’s Jeanna Light using Jeanna’s large toroid Joule thief design and Lidmotor’s circuit. This circuit puts out between 1200-2000 volts! I do not have an exact measurement yet. (I am afraid of frying my measuring equipment!) This uses two 3-3/8″OD ferrite toroids, TIP 3055 transistor, 20 ohm rheostat, 15 turn variable 1k resistor, and 28 ga. magnet wire for the secondary and pick-up coils. I used solid copper 22 ga. wire for the primary. The cfl is a 40 watt equivalent rated at 9 watts. In the video, I am running from a 1.4 volt C cell but, I have run this on an AAA and an AA and a D cell as well using my magnetic universal battery holder idea. For more information, go to overunity.com in the joule thief topics area. This is a lot of light and it lasts a long time and you can use dead batteries that others would have tossed out to power this. More to come using this circuit. Please use caution if replicating this, or any other high voltage output circuit. If you don’t know what you are doing, get someone who does to help you or don’t do it.
