Joule Thief

ok so it apears i can not duplicate the results!

this is the reason why .... 


i cleaned the termanials .... 

clearly the rust and corrosion played a much larger roll than i origonally noticed ...

i have no problem to charge the cap!   but when i hook it up ...  big fireworks ... show ... 

where with the rust and such ...  i never had that problem ...

however it charges quite nicely as it is !   running 13vdc !

ist!

here is the BIGGEST SECREAT!

all we all need to do is design a NEGITIVE RESISTOR !

: )

screw it on the neg of the battery! 

: )


lmfao

this will cause a reserve in the cap and cause it to fill the battery faster and the motor will accelerate ...

till it reaches .. its setting .. mine stoped at 130 vdc and ran nice there for a long time 4 hours .. then i DROVE CAP VOLTAGE  high and went to bed !   i woke up it was at 86vdc in push cap battery was filling  verry well

then i stoped the whole mess set it up on the round to make a PUBLIC VIDEO   and i cleaned the termanials ...  and here we are !

the battery is almost full 12.75 vdc !

Output voltage of non-modified flyswatter board:

with 1.5 volt battery = 434 volts

with 3.0 volt battery = 857 volts

I seem to be getting lower voltages than reported by others

deleted by xee2 - double post. I got error message when I tried to post the first time so I posted again. Then the first post appeared.

@all

I just found this interesting link , if you look at the bottom of the page you will see the 3 Radio shack spool of wire so familiar to us the 22,26,and 30 used for making an electromagnet , the operating voltage is 5 v DC .

I assume the 3 spools have the same wire mass .

You see some really different strength result ...

sorry double post here !!!

Btw i just tested my newest coils with the bulb , i will need to make a movie , i light nicely on its 8 turn pickup coil , plus the satellite coil lights leds easy without affecting the bulb on the secondary.

I also tried a 6 volts the element got red .

This is the one with a 10 volts output that use to give 0v before i rewind the second layer.
