sweet!
diagrams please 

Some early information is available in reply 203

The basic theory is that we can Lead-Out or Draw-In electron motion energy via pulsing a resonant circuit.  The Law of COnservation of Energy has not been violated.

Oops,

Thought I had posted my Double Joule Thief here also.
I will do so when I get back to my regular computer.

Here is my Double Joule Thief Circuit.

I played around with Resistances & Capacitors a bit to obtain this result.
The Matronix Electronics lab is certainly handy for doing that !

Been running 3 LEDs for 24 hours.
Start was    1.312 V     now at     1.291 V    so a loss of    .021 V.
Or about .001 V loss per hour.

Very nicely done.  Excellent presentation too.  What diode did you end up using here?

Thanks,

I don't want to be a pest, but maybe some folks who have recently arrived have not noticed this circuit from last year.

That is a direct link to a post with pictures and above it and below it are the relevant details.
Basically there are 30 blazing bright leds running from a single AAA NiMH taking a couple of mA to run the basic circuit and all the lights are coming from the sedcondary which does not add to the draw a bit.

Why doesn't someone move this circuit forward instead of reworking how to make pulses?

In addition:
If making a few leds light from a AAA is considered ou because leds cannot run at all on a single AAA, then what pray tell is running 30 leds from a single AAA?

Please excuse this outburst.


thank you,
