Arnookie:

Well done.  I would only add that folks use led bulbs instead of cfls as you can get much more light with less power use.

I have used the Lights Of America bulbs from Walmart so far and I get at least 2 times the light as I do from my cfl versions.

I did a comparison in my video here:

I didn't notice if you also cut the anode end of the diode to get the full wave in your version?  If not, this really helps a lot with the output.  A single AA can run 3 of these bulbs which have 27 led chips in each bulb.  Very, very bright and no breakage or mercury to worry about.

I always wanted to do a how to on the Fuji mod but never got around to it.  Great job.

Thanks Bill,
I have not refered to the led bulbs because of the cost. They are still very very expensive!
especially in the UK. The cheapest I have seen them so far in the UK stores are about £15-£20 each.
I also tried to keep this as simple as possible and is the main reason I suggested using cfl's because they are so easy to get and most people already have a few kicking about.
Yes you are correct about cutting the anode end of the diode and no I do not show this in the video again just for keeping it a simple as possible. Maybe I should have included that as I agree it makes a big difference. Thanks for picking up on that.

Arnookie: Here you have pics of Kodak fansaver circuit. Unfortunately don’t have a good resolution webcam. Please check if you can work with that.

Hi yes I am sure I have that one Will get back to you with pics if I have.
I will just have to sort through what I have and pull the correct one.
Then I should be able to help. :O)

Hi Arnookie: Finally I could find a Fuji circuit exactly as the right one in your pics, but I don’t get it as bright as yours. I’m working with a CFL of 12watts. Even more I get it lit just when I make bridge between contact 2 and one leg of resistor (straight left welding point).

Arnookie

Hi, well I can suggest cutting the anode end of the diode.
Also try a charged rechargable battery with it. You could also try a higher watt bulb. But 12watt sounds good to me. Some bulbs depending on make also give less light output. Try a philips bulb or another make of bulb, Some have a very dim yellow output, the ones I use have a very bright blue output I found philips to be the best for me. I found the bulbs lower than 11 watt give very little light.
Hope that helps.
Also double check your connections as the two boards shown here are different.

Check them both for your board. I will post how to do the kodak circuit also, but we are having a full house renovation carried out at the moment. So I am a little tied up at the moment especially with four kids. I will post pics soon. :O)
