Selfrunning cold electricity circuit from Dr.Stiffler

I agree, using caps makes it easier to determine stored energy.

@All
This morning heat tuning exploration:

     Input voltage=19.55 VDC
     Input current=66ma
     Ambient temperature=70F
     Neon Temperature=128F
     22uH Choke Temperature=92F
     Transistor Temperature=80F
     10uH Choke Temperature=80F

Just pure exploration,

Best regards,

Jim

Hey Jim,
maybe you should also measure the temperature of the components under known circumstances first, so you know some of the characteristics such as how
much electric power is dissipated to heat.
Just a thought, but maybe not very clear explained. 

@Alan,
Yes I do plan on it, its part of the problems wth part time research, it's not very fast. But I'm cooking neons better and better without increasing input power too awful much so. Progress even if slow.  My work right now is trying to understand the the parasitic C's and the role it plays, characteristics, and etc. All in good time for me I suppose. 

Best regards,

Jim

@All,
Picture laminated blue foam insulation with wiring sticking out of it and this inside it. Spool center will be lined with aluminum flashing. Insulation foam will fill the void between the inner radius and outer radius. 7 inches of insulation at approximately R6/inch. That should do it. The shots of heat are for drama.  The point now becomes transfer this performance to a PCB that fits in the big old glass thermos bottle..Edit, Actually under it in the aluminum lined chamber....Jim..... What can I say.....I'm a technical packrat.

More to follow,

Jim

Oh,
The transistor....... Ambient temperature is 74F

@Dr. Stiffler,
Then I'm gonna compare it to the Stiffler PCB devices. If I can get my hands on one.  The VLT's are going in here too. 2nd batch Doc, 2nd batch,  I'm slow but doing it anyway. See if my results match up with those of the rest! Unless you haven't sold out of the first run. Drop me a note if that's the case but no hurry for me. 
I'm getting better by the session, trim a little here, measure a little there, tweak adjust and measure as much as possible.
I'm going to get it right on the boards too and then heat some water, just like I said. 

Comments, concerns, and criticisms welcome.

Best regards,

Jim
