Single AA battery to light WHITE LED for long-long time

[amigo]

If I may comment on the developments, I thought that the purpose of this thread is to focus on *practical* applications?
I know it's fun connecting an aerial and the ground and collecting whatever emissions are in the air, but that is totally impractical in most real world applications. You are definitely not going to use a flashlight, or any light emission device, that needs a 2m aerial and another wire to the ground, at all times.

@ Amigo:

No, but you could recharge such devices in this manner, as we are doing with the earth batteries.  you can charge batteries and caps....for free.

I'm agree, that's funny using that circuit flash flight purpose. I'm only to try the my friend's concept.
He will arrive at my place next 2 week. I will post what i can get it from him.

I think this is a decent platform for experimenting.  Zon is always making new circuits so I think his results are interesting.

Remember, marco suggested we add a sub-milimeter spark gap using mechanical pencil graphite.  I want to build one of these, but need to get access to a microscope.

Hey the long arial is not that important.
The spark gap is.
It just needs some wire it does not have to be miles.
A regular crock clip wire works fine.
