OU prize OFFICIAL ENTRY

[gadgetmall]

Stephan  I am making a video so i wont have to pay shipping on My massivly Ou device . It is Very easy to build and cost 100 us dollars . the device is  The worlds first AA battery heater/light  . . the only parts are one 2n2222a transistor one 2 k resistor , one 10 k pot  one 102 capacitor. some #26 wire a one inch torroid some white leds one ultracapacitor 650f 2.7 volts and one Everready rechargable Ni-mh AA battery rated from 2500ma  to 2800 ma  . To complete this unit i will be selling the boards that make up that make the circuit self run . TBD . and some Nichrome wire and a switch . Simple . To describe the unit again  Its a Standard joule Thief circuit with a tank circuit comprised of a resistor capacitor and a pot . . this circuit has been calculated as have a cop of 2,26 with an out put over 3000 amps @ 2.5  -2.6 volts maximum amps are 3500 amps short circuit. . I will take you up on the offer for the prize as i doubt anyone here can come colose to such a simple heater /light generator of this kind . I discovered this and i so claim and take you up on the free shipping although you can make this unit easily yourself in 5 or 10 minuits with the parts readily available anywhere . If you really need me to make you one then i will . But i need the free shipping so so the units will be on loan only . you have an option to buy My unit . the others do not have that option to keep it . I will nail down the self run circuit shortly with help from some other contributing members who are making circuit boards for this device . the total unit will  be less than 6 inches Square and run for the life of the Ni-mh battery . 3-5 years they are readily available for less than 10 dollars per 2 aa batteries that this unit will run on .  If i win the prize i would like to share it with a group of people here that has inspired me to release the very first PROOF of OU in its simplistic and most powerful form .furthermore ,to prevent "COPYCAT"entrants and Because i am the one who Discovered and invented this device no other entrant shall be allowed to enter a device using an ultracapacitor or joule thief in there Invention .

Okay, I created this board
Devices applied for the OU prize

for devices like this which apply for the prize.

The status of this device on today 2nd of Jan.2010 is still open,
as I have not yet received anything from Gadgetmail and he is still
waiting for the shuffle switching circuit from Groundloop.

Please Gadgetmail let me know,
when you have something to ship,so
I will update this topic.
Many thanks.

Sorry to post here but I am really trying to get up to speed on the JT and would like to try the circuit gadgetmall has posted.  However I cannot find any page "997 to page 1003" on a Joule Thief thread as the seem to end at page 858.  Also I sent email to gadgetmall on his web site but no response yet.  Can anyone tell me what a 102 capacitor is - that is what is the value in farads and working voltage?  I purchased a 650 Farad Maxell cap and am trying to round up the rest of the parts.  I also don't know which is the 'advanced Joule thief message thread' - does anyone have a link?  I have an idea on the JT that I think may be valuable if I can just get up to speed on it.  I think it may be part of why gadgetmalls first one worked and subsequent ones were not as efficient but I need to get one put together first myself.  Please help.  TIA
