I actually think your price is fine considering that you are making them in such small batches.  I was trying to point out the fact that in larger numbers it will take you much less time per unit and the parts cost will also go down.

LaserSaber,

You did not get the connection to the battery correct. The collector on the 2N2222 is going to the plus rail.
Attached is a corrected drawing of your corrected drawing. :-)

Added 1, Attached is my setup.

Hi folks, Was wondering why my fingers were posting off topic posts in this thread.
Gadgetmall quote,

Quote"I agree that i have them priced too high and if it were not for the bank getting ready to snatch my home from me and my Daughter i would have them much cheaper . I hate begging for money . I have to come up with 2100 dollars for the dang hom2owners ins and the county taxes or the bank is going to get me in default of my mortgage agreement and that is why i am so desperate."

And my previous words explain the cause,

Quote"If no conditions are attached to all having their basic needs met, then their will never, ever be any incentive to profit from those needs or use those human needs as leverage or control to create power over others."

Another old saying, something like placing the cart before the horse, applies to this scenario.
Small numbers of human beings benefit immensely from the ability to print ink paper money virtually for nothing or for that matter, any monetary instrument to get humanity to work for the money changers.
These same small number of humans know full well their is not enough ink paper (money) in circulation for everyone to continue to pay their mortgages.
Though that is not the main purpose of it all, the main purpose is to get others to have a belief in the value of money in any form it has taken over time.
This belief in worthless paper or other monetary tools, transfers power to these small number of human beings that print or mint the stuff virtually for free, thereby enabling them to wield great power over others and the ability to shape the societies within which many live.
You want the solution, unconditional love, was, is and will always be the solution.
Don't take my word for it, I know why I AM here to even be typing words on a keyboard, my parents unconditional love for me, provided all I needed when in younger years.
Anything less, is insanity and will only lead to imbalance and division of humanity.
Would suggest to let go of trying to play their money game, it cannot be won and in the process of trying to win their game, tends to reinforce division.
Remember the movie,'War Games', even the computer learned at the end of the movie, "The only winning move, is not to play the game".
peace love light and may the highest good of all be done.

   Tyson, Gadget, and All:
   Thank you for taking the time to state your views. If more of us would consider what's  really happening to us all, things would change even faster than they are.  Time will tell. But, will we all be here to see it??? A change for the better? An economic system that works?  Not just printing out more worthless money that you won't even be able to use it to wipe your butt with.
   THEY are trying to exterminate us all.  Will we let them have their way???
 
  Gadget, don't feel all alone, I'm also threading water, for as long as possible...  and is why I'm doing my best to work and follow through on these projects, and to have them really do something usefull, not just play with more useless toys.   Before the lights go out.
 
   Lasersaber: thanks for posting your ongoing results, we do appreciate it, very, very, much.
I'll also have a whack at your newest Ringer circuit.

   This next month will be the most important time of our lives...  hold on to your hats, we're going in.

Hi,

I have done a little more research on the circuit. I wanted to run the circuit from 2 AA batteries in series
and get more light out of the LED lamp. I assumed that if I reduced the number of turns on the primary
from 25 turn down to 20 turn, then I would get more output at a higher amp. draw on the input. I assumed
wrong. My circuit did not run at all with 20 turns! So instead I increased the number of turns to 29 and
now the circuit runs fine. So I assume that if I want a higher output voltage then I must increase the
number of turns on the secondary coil. I might be wrong on that also. :-) Have not tested this yet.

I have also tested the circuit on a larger LED lamp. A OSRAM 230 VAC 8 Watt lamp. The circuit did not oscillate
due to the higher load and less feed back to the base of the 2N2222 transistor. Maybe a variable resistor to give
the base of the 2N2222 transistor a bias voltage will help. I have not tested this yet.

Added 1, I have now tested the circuit with a 10K variable resistor. Works great. Circuit auto start at power up.
I can adjust the current usage and get what ever light output I want in the LED lamp. Current usage do go up
at higher bias voltages and transistor get warmer at higher wattage, but this is to be expected.

GL.
