Nice drawing ! How is your led connected to the base and collector?


@all

Hi all;

Just thought you might be interested in this picture... it's a "Sunbeam Mighty Bulb CFL", it fits perfectly in the center of the 24 LED's...perfect fit...just a little glue will hold it in place now just plug in a solar panel garden light circuit with the battery in it and add a JT or Fuji mod circuit inside the LED case where the four batteries usually go, add a clear dome on top and voila, should be weather proof and self sustaining until the battery totally dies.

Regards,
Paul

@ MK1
I followed a design off U tube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gTAqGKt64WM&feature=related thought I would see if it worked, and it did.

LED is connected between (e)mitter and (c)ollector, base goes to centre tap of JT bifiler wires, via 1k ohm resister.

What I'm wanting to do next is to put several 2 turns wires on this torid, and see if it will drive any more LEDS

Thanks Mark
