Joule Thief replications - not overunity

[PaulLowrance]

Hi,

First, I firmly believe in cop>1 research, but IMO the Joule Thief is nothing but a massive distraction from legit research. That's my firm opinion.

Anyhow, I should have posted this. I and numerous others have taken the time to replicate various Joule Thief claims, and all of the claims were well below 100% efficiency. Here's my tests -->

44% efficiency:

Also some people thought the Ultracapacitors were over unity, but they were not -->

Part number BCAP0650 (650 farads) 92% efficient:

Photos of my Joule Thief. Note, these photos were taken after the capacitor was removed from the circuit. The capacitor that was in the circuit was the exact value that gadgetmall used. Furthermore, I tried various size capacitors, including a variable capacitor. The highest efficiency was obtained without a capacitor.

i will not get into it with you paul ...

YOU SIR ARE VERRY WRONG!

Hi Paul,
I am proud that I am working with non legit systems.

I live in a box as everyone else, but it pleases me greatly to hear that my box is not the same as the legit box.

with respect,
jeanna

Blah Blah Blah...

I really do wish more people would post more math with their claims though.  It should be assumed the efficiency is below 100% unless otherwise proven.

I also wish those claiming any different would prove it once and for all.
