How are those glows?  Do they last a while and is there much light?  I ordered my supercap from Gadget today and I am almost broke again but I want a bunch of these things if they work.  Thanks.

I could see they were bright from the start, but after I got home and really charged them for 15 minutes under a 15W cfl here by my computer, they give off a lot of light. Enough to reflect off the wall behind them. I will give a daylight charge tomorrow, and see.

Thanks Jeanna.  Did you get those from Gadget's posted source or Xee2's source?  Maybe they are all the same.  Probably come from the same factory in China anyway.  That is a good preliminary report, thank you.

Actually, I think the link gadget posted said $1ea and Xee2's link was 50 cents.  So, I think I already have my answer.  Thanks.

I hope you are right.  It does make sense to me about the "load" with the stun guns.  I was hoping it was some super transformer like the Fuji only a lot more potent.  Maybe it is not.  Gee, like everything else we have done, if we want to know, we have to try it.

I can't wait for my 650 Farad supercap to arrive.  Then, we will see what my EB/JT can really do. (Hopefully)

Bill

You ordered it!!! NICE  With that you will be lighting some ambiance lights in your residence.

I do not know if anyone is interested, but here is a circuit that will light a 20 watt tube using only 80 ma from a AAA battery. It also lights a 4 watt tube as bright as the Fuji board but only needs 78 ma to do it.

That is some great work as usual.  Xee is there any winding method you are using.  I do not seem to see any if there is, which is pretty cool considering the performance.  What type is wire are you using?

@xee2  I wanted to thank you for doing the
diagram, it looks good. i have been switching
between yours and the fuji circuit for a couple
of days now.
also, i'm using a MJE3055T rather than a TIP31C,
my 4watt tube is lighting a little brighter with it.

has anyone tried lighting a CCFL tube ?
i was thinking of getting a couple from ebay.
