Smoothest, and best, store purchased Joule Thief I have seen yet.

The black blob covers the chip.
There are more than two connections to the chip, I believe, two traces visible on the foil side connecting components and two solder blobs connecting wires.
The green resistor-like thing on the component side is an inductor.

I think this is essentially the same circuit as the one posted above with the ANA608 chip, which is tiny, barely room for the four leads. A smd version would easily fit under the blob.

Schematic?

I got sick yesterday so finishing up now but still not 100%.  I am sad but DALM circuit is no more as I reimaged my drive and that is what I lost.   All I have left is the video on YT but should be easy to reproduce if I need to.
