GBluer(Slayer) Exiter

[slayer007]

RFacts the video you showed is a replication of Dr Stifflers sec 15 exciter, so yes the video was called sec exciter.

When I first noticed the slayer exciter I was working with a air core joule thief, And noticed when the end with the resistor was disconnected it would stay running.
I then added a resistor so it would auto start and later on I added a diode to help with performance.
Here is a comment from Dr Stiffler at the EF forum when he was trying to help me with a self runner.
@Slayer
Depending on you circuit which is very different than mine, it is hard to compare results, yet I will give you some spec's.

With a 3F cap, the charge rate is ~100mV/Sec. This is self limiting as the voltage gets to a certain point into my Exciter the current leaves linear increase which pulls back
down the charge. The circuit will then oscillate between to to set points.

With the voltages you are seeing I think the diurnal effect will kill it off.

The basic slayer exciters origins were from a joule thief.

This is exactly correct.

It would be most interesting to see the
waveshape and frequency analysis for
the three circuits:

1.  Typical Joule Thief

2.  "Slayer" Exciter

3.  Self-Oscillating Low Power Tesla Coil

The waveshapes at the respective Bases of
the individual transistors;  the waveshapes
at the Collectors of the respective transistors;
and the waveshape at the output terminal
of each respective circuit; in addition to the
frequency of oscillation of the respective
circuits.

Perhaps a comparative evaluation would
shed light on the matter.

What specifically about the "Joule Thief" is
considered to be the "origin" of the "Slayer"
exciter?

Oh Wet One....
It is a path ,in this particular case things began for Slayer [and many others] playing with the jule thief
yes I know "its been around Forever " .


So what?? ,Well the open source research community [the one that shares and leaves the door unlocked]  Plays with this little "machine" quite a bit,
some folks who started perhaps on similar paths at one time in their life wander in and share their ideas and "what Ifs" with this fun loving group of "what if" fellows.
Sometimes a scientist that recognizes the camaraderie and friendly sharing attitude of this group
will think he see's something special in them [the group] and share his own little secrets!
The door is always open of course and sometimes others standing around are not so benevolent as the group mind set ,they percieve them as naive, How come all the other houses on the block have their doors locked [copy this rite that patent yada yada yada...] and these guys leave the door open??


All their stuff must be free??? I Don't have to ask then ....wow no locks on the door???
thats the secret here!!! there is no secret it belongs to all ,just take and run!!


@@ Chet interjects "Oh what is that word they all like to use" its on the tip of my tongue??
.....................
Oh thats right OPEN SOURCE
its all Open source stuff


"free stuff for the taking""



Welcome to our world ,there are no locks here.
They say you can tell what a man really is when you see what he does when  no one is looking..........[or so he thinks]


So to answer your round about "whats all the fuss about"
there's nothing special here??


Just like your friend Rfacts and others
You can't see the forest for the trees..........


Its not about the stupid thousand year old circuit
its all about the people..

here is the Taker now,no one here knows him he just wandered in one day and saw a chance to take

Its all about the people ,and what they do.........[or not]


Oh, I brought Rfacts a present [a peace offering]

Its all about the people ,and what they do.........[or not]

Aye, and so it is!

And what would you propose as a solution?

We can either have "hissy fits" when things
happen or we can act with maturity.

It's not called "The School of Hard Knocks" for
no reason.

We live and we learn.  We can let anger and
resentment dominate our lives or we can
choose the path of sanity and serenity.

Do unto others as you would have them do
unto you.  No matter what.

No sense crying over spilled milk.
