Joule Thief

If you make a second pick up coil only one will light at a time...
That is unless you add another inductor in series with one of the circuits.
I think you are wishing you had made your first secondary a longer one?

I think since you still have 2 more cores you could use one of them and wind 500 turns around it.
This should give you well over 1000 volts.
If you use my new winding style you will get over 2000 volts, and I bet you can do a lidmotor-kooler replication without the ignition coil if you do this.

Wanna try it?
then it would be a pirate-lidmotor-kooler replication. Would that be great?

Good night,

jeanna

@ist,
It is very sad. I am sorry.

Jeanna I think I missed your new winding style?  What are you doing differently?  If you don't feel like repeating yourself I understand...could you derect me to the page???

im over my rant ...  now

and i do wonder what came over me .. how ever  i did see a odd light in the night sky last night

none the less ...  i found out after i destoryed all my toys some one wants to pour money in ...

i would have said yes but ..   i was so discouraged that i had to destory that i freqed ... 

so what bout the gold it was a nice find .. but in all honesty i could care less i hope that my speeking of it and showing what is INSIDE SOMETHINGS.. brought light to those that dont realize what they throw away ... 

plus as if i dont have enough inventions ...  i now have BOXES FULL OF  specialty parts .. to build even more stuff ... 

but why do i need to build more ... when so few understand ..  what i have already done ...

w

i will add some picture OF THE NEW TOYS I HAVE AQUIRED ...

there many ... and they aint your normal parts ..

i ask gadget if he knows what this is ...

it is like a large neon/ reed sw / vaccume tube
i nave no idea what they are ...  i have 10 or 15 of em

i apoligize ... for my unhappy times ...

as 1 thing leads to another i discover i have linex's and 400 or so ..

each one has 14 grams of the golden stuff in them  in them ....

ill add a pic...  you wont beleave ...
in the second pictuere showen we heated 1 of the connectors to see if it was real gold then scratched it it is infact the real deal 

thease 2 peices came from 1 unit .. i have hundreds more ..  and this is a 1/2 oz ..

i guessing i have a cupple pounds of 24k pure gold ..

@xee2,
Thanks for the correction.
I am so glad. (I let myself try to understand it for a while, then gave up.)
And, yes, it does fit.

@Jim and stprue
I will make it in steps and take 4 pix of the stages.
...coming soon

@MK1
Keep the faith.
Do NOT let yourself get so discouraged.
Hold onto the future and image it as you want it to be.
Never give up!

@IST,
I had an idea.

Put a bunch of those gold sticks in a group and tie them together with a small rubber band or string. Make this with enough of them that the group of them is the diameter of a penny.

Make a stack of pennies that is the same height as the gold sticks.

So, now they take up approximately the same physical space.

Now weigh them and compare.
The gold should be a little more than 2 times heavier than the stack of pennies. (2.16 times)
Gold is heavier than anything including lead. Platinum (not cheap either) is the only thing heavier than gold.

Hi Ist . They look like argon discharge lamps . Kind of like a neon but blue and are made to absorb sparks/lightning . Looks . good . What frequency were the Amps / Could be worth a lot of money on ebay .

@all

Just for fun.

I message from Nic !

To the American Red Cross, New York City.

The retrospect is glorious, the prospect inspiring: Much might be said of both. But one idea dominates my mind. This - my best, my dearest - is for your noble cause.

I have observed electrical actions, which have appeared inexplicable. Faint and uncertain though they were, they have given me a deep conviction and foreknowledge that are ere long all human beings on this globe, as one, will turn their eyes to the firmament above, with feelings of love and reverence, thrilled by the glad news: "Brethren! We have a message from another world, unknown and remote. It reads: one… two… three…"
