Joule Thief

[jeanna]

I'm looking for a L/C meter now.
What did you get and where did you order yours from?

Thanks,
DonL

Here is the link to the meter.

$53 plus $12 for shipping. Lots... but better than the thousands I saw on other sites.
There is also a guy that makes a kit. I think it is more expensive than this, though, however it might be better. I hope this is good enough for what I am doing.

This may help you answer your video 3 question. Adding open ended extra pickup coils to toroid has almost no effect (but does increases main coil voltage some). But if anything is added to the ends of those extra pickup coils, then they can have a large effect on the main coil. The main coil is the one voltage is being taken from, it does not have to be the collector coil, it can be another pickup coil. You may want to try this experiment that I did.

EDIT REMOVED: not correct.

It is great that you can read Russian. Can you supply short summary in English? I do not understand what these are doing.

The circuit below is what FreeEnergyInfo references.

I will be building one when my HV caps arrive, it´s a joule thief with a really high turn tertiary winding (basically a flyback trafo). The really high voltage low current output is charged into the output cap until the spark gap breaks down and then it´s dumped through the filament lamp. You´re supposed to be able to light line voltage household bulbs using low input V and I. If that´s the case then maybe the bulb could be immersed in water and then measure the temp rise and see if more joules of heating are performed than joules inputted into the circuit, in which case OU is achieved.

ok
coil = auto ignition coil
