Joule Thief

[kooler]

kool,
i'm new to the video making stuff
glad you like it
i should be getting my sidac's soon ..so i might build something more simple??
the toroid design thingy works even better with those 1'' ones from goldmine
you can get the ma's down to near nothing
hope it helps

i don't know how utube is about life theating devices.. i been wanting to show you guys this thing running a stungun transformer.. its what i starting building with...
a little more harmful than a tesla coil... (from me touching it like a idiot)
hahaha
yea, my mom told me a couple times i was crazy,
and my sister
and my dad
well u get what i mean....

Hi all . Well My super duper 600 turn Brightest ever cfl gizmo broke down in less than 30 Minuit's and i had Peel the latex and unwind  all of them .. Before it stopped working it screeched and screamed . i turned the lights off and the entire coil was a bluish glow where it was meeting the naked Jeanna ring . It finally burned its way in several places and shorted the coiled to toroid and stopped working . DO NOT USE BLACK TAPE !! . I did and have been winding for over two hours now and am not even 1/4 the way yet . you cant slide the coils of wire and so its a B . I have one more core and i am going to go get some latex paint and paint it ,probably plastic coat several times let it bake dry in from of the gas heater and then wind a new coiled with magnet wire . My wire was very expensive and has a thick enamel on it so its not cheap wire . Its the naked unpainted core that caused it to break down . After i wind it and before i fire it up i am going to spray it all again several times to let the wire get triple coated and then it cover it with latex rubber . That coiled should not break down after that . 600 turns produced over 2000 volts and i couldn't measure it as it over flowed My best 2000 volt meter .

IF we get these toroids i would like to try and get them epoxy  or painted coated first this will save a lot of time preparing these things . newbe wire you cant get that many windings on one and as i see it the more one layer of wire it the one that will catch the most inductance anything on top of the first layer is only getting half and a thirds layer gets a 1/4 so the best volts are obtained with one layer in my research . I noticed this on a hazen coil first . an mk2 coil should be wound as one layer and when you wind backwards make sure your wire goes in between the up winding ther for all the wire touches the toroid . My next sample order will be getting the same number core except grey coated first .

Well I'm Finished winding 600 turns . I could not get 30 turns of it on because the black tapr made me have gaps so i backwards wrapped the extra 30 turns inbetween some of the gaps about one inch backwards . .I couldnt wait so i fored it up and YEA full bright again . I unhooked it and painted the entire thing with Clear Nail polish and letting it dry  while i go to town and buy some clear coat . .. That was an ordeal !!!! . If you want to wind HV with magnet wire on Naked charcoal toroids then paint them first !!You will save yourself a lot of grief later on .You think you got it and 30 mins of full power later it dyes and there you go, you have to redo it . the problem is the core is not made for Hv unless you paint it .

yea i like those grey W cores .....

i will add.... gadget that there is far more   about the mk1 wind design .. 

i most importantally love RA'S wind ... simple ..  the RA COIL ....

cadisous is and always was ... RA'S..  : )  ther is a sclar event   as the wires cross...

yep the SNAKE TAMER ...   plus RA used HIS GOLD ...

just look at your FLAWED MEDICAL SYMBLE .. DEATH ONLY ...  1 snake in the staff...  ha ha ha ..

isis and RA'S  gift ...  thats right EL ETERNAL LIFE ...

2000v in my opinion is TOO MUCH for stage 1   AS I TOLD J THE SAME THING ...

shit will blow up ...  try lids way ...  witch is TESLAS WAY ...

lol

RA!

its BASIC TESLA CONVERSION ...    yep same old ...  charge a cap discharge a cap ...

then truely SOLVE IT AS I HAVE DONE SO ... YOU GET G .... LMFAO...

whats g ...  well   i covered it years ago now ..

ps gadget the w core is only rated to 2000v ...  hummmm  why did i say W CORE ?  i know CUZ I LIED THE THE WHOLE DAMM WORLD ... LMAO

price apears to be a trade off for quality ...

then if your gonna not be cheep ... why bang it with .. ma's ....  lol   maybe why i used 14 ga ... 


anyhow ... still MILES TO GO ...

@ IST,

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 ...

Hello w, I don't know if you ever got the answer about the above question.
They are glass encapsulated temperature circuit breakers, (bi-metal switch) I have seen them inside Arlec Battery chargers also.
Heres one here, and  BTW ist,, you aint the first or the last one to be unhappy, been there, done that too, you are not alone.

Lookit all that gold, wow, wow, wow, ist is drippin with gold, lol.

@jeanna,
I didnt know PLatinum was heaver than gold, now I learnt something new tonight.
thankyou
