Selfrunning cold electricity circuit from Dr.Stiffler

[DrStiffler]

I am of an opinion that MPSA06 is not necessarily the only transistor that will work, though it is the best one so far.

I have gotten the SEC effect with 2N2222, 2N3904, 2N3905...I have some 2N4401 and will try those as well soon.

Also, with all the testing I have done, I do not believe hFE has major impact on the performance of the SEC (though it might be contributing to its operation). The MPSA06s tried were from several different vendors with a wide range of gains, anywhere from 60 to over 300, and they all appeared to have performed as expected.

Of course, as no real sensitive measurements have been done, it still warrants further investigation and experimentation to determine which ones do work better than others.

@amigo
Read back through this thread and you will see that successful replications have consisted of the 06 transistor and asserting that many others will work without (knowing for sure) will only lead to many failures. So you are able to state this without quantitative results as a reference?

Dr Stiffler,

I am trying to access the referenced YouTube videos in this section but they have all been removed by "user".

Next I tried to access your referenced websites and they are no longer online, nor is the one referenced in your profile (parked).

Can you please point me to your active website and videos?

Thank you in advance.

**Interesting how the SEC started out as a Joule Thief with a ferrite antenna instead of a toroid,
and then evolved into what we have on page 226. **

LOL

What? SEC Exciters came from a JT? I know that sun spots are down, but this is ridiculous. Sorry to spoil your dream but the first open ended coil exciter was built in 1995.

Besides happening way before this JT thing was born LOL, how can you even compare the two different systems?

mind you, blocking oscilators date way back before 1995.
it is true that the SEC does not work like a joule thief at all, and both are far from having the same root.
but what is the point of using precedance date ?

i can understand that you don't have time to teach peoples with lower electronic understanding.
but not that you have time to be rude with them.

simply stating "no, the SEC and the jt are different" would have been faster to type and would have been understood by everyone.
competent in the field or not.

Did you know that in the assembly language that a NOP is a do nothing command used to often fill a patch space or take up time uselessly? Humm.......
