Joule Thief

Jeanna:

I suggest leaving your links up until you get stuff posted on youtube.  As you know, this is where I post (since you always leave me nice comments) and it is easy to do.  It supports a whole bunch of different formats.  If you have any problems doing this, let me know and if I can help, I will.

Bill

Thank you, Bill.
I will do that.
I realize that this doesn't solve the problem for the people I was thinking of today.
Gary and jim won't be able to see it on youtube.
But maybe ogg.
Maybe I can load it there too.
Once the movie is made it is easy.

I just made the movie in little pieces for the dial up folks, so I need to remake the movie.
It is ok I am so pleased that I got radiant energy out of a joule thief, it am really excited about that part.

Now, I am in a whole new world.

I am surprised nobody commented about that part, since yesterday.
588KHz received from a sending transmitter that has 208Khz max.
The Stubblefield generator must have ramped up the frequency as it received it.

And it is very quiet. The georgian one sounds like my neighbor's gas generator. I just need to make it bigger, I guess. Maybe the ignition coil I just bought will be big enough to work. That sure would be convenient.

thank you,

jeanna

Jim, on dial-up, watches and comments on all of my Tube videos.  I think he downloads them first.

Oh yes, he does comment. I remember.
Well, I will do this.
Maybe I will make a whole new and much better video tomorrow, first. I can make it in a couple of small bursts instead of 6 and that might be easier and look better too.

Thank you so much for all your support, Bill.

i built a new coil as my last one didnt turn out well not sure whats wrong with it yet

but this coil im getting 115 v from 16 turns

im gonna put a 32 turn and see what i get

i did 8 turn and i got 60v

the core is split like mk2 but it is the cross winding and i have 2 turns each side

ist

kinda like 808 lol 

i had to switch the driveing aa in my battery charger the 12v is still chargeing .. im up to 10.70v

when i disconnect it.... it dont drop on the meter much at all 

50 turns 268 v

built 1 more new coil i topped 450v 1 coil..   1 inch goldmine there might be 100 turns on this coil putting out 450 dc

i guess i drop the turn 1 and see what i get

results were worse ..
350v

Looks like 2 base coil turns and 2 collector coil turns. Try increasing your collector coil to 10 turns and I think you will get even more voltage. What size is your pickup coil wire - it really looks like a small diameter.
