Joule Thief

@ All:

Sorry I have not been here much.

I just saw this on metacafe: http://www.metacafe.com/watch/2368671/sugar_and_sulfuric_acid/

Sulfuric acid and suger produces h2o (steam) and a tower of pure carbon!!!!  This might be a cheap way for me to get larger carbon blocks for the earth battery component for JT circuit experiments in the spring.  I know very little about chemistry but this is cool.  Thought some of you might like to see it.

Fascinating, but this reaction doesn't take into account the whereabouts of the sulfur, now does it.

@ Mk1

Would this Be a Start  ?

@all

Congratulations for the joule thief improvements achieved till now.

I only have a photo of my joule thief running a pulse motor with the rotor stopped and giving 19 volts as output.
Not much but it is strange because it only gives 4.74 volts while running.

On the photo appears with the @slayer007 idea of two toroids but it does the same with just one toroid coil.

well guys...

i have been working hard on my coil...

a while back jenna made a suggestion  or asked a question .. if i was powering through my cores ..    the answer is no not in the orginal design ..

how ever im a bit lazzy ..  so insted of pulse to rotation .... i may go with bang em all at once ...  then i could use the core as ground

and run the whole thing from 1 3055 .....    i just need 1 trigger coil ...  and i still could  tap rotation from it just not 12 laps / pulse ...

CORRECTION  YES I CAN  MAKE 12 LAPS  AND GROUND THE CORE   LOL    DUH WHAT WAS I THINKING .....   THINKING LAZY   LOL  AND STILL USE 1 3055

you guys decide how i build it ... 

IT DOES NOT MATTER TO ME .....    IM OVER 160 RINGS NOW ... 

THIS IS YOUR RING ....

i got like 20 more to build yet ...

ill post a pic ...    got all the little guys wound  mounted  got a heavy gage pickup  pancake  coil 2 turns bifillar  then neos then a steel band on the inside ...


was gonna incase this thing in plastic...   

then wind a transformer round the whole thing ... then pulse it ...  use the young effect ... so SPIN IS FREE.....  HENCE OUTPUT ASWELL .....   

~~~~~~IST!~~~~~~~

drop jennas / gm's jt on input side ...   

gm ....    how well does your unit charge a BIGGGGGGG CAPPPPPP  ....

yes my next ring will have no steel in it and will be built for high frequency     PLASTIC / MAGNETIC EFFECT    or is that MAGNETIC PLASTIC

Welll William .. I will Check . I have not tried to Charge with it But I will and LYK

Looks Like a Nice Setup .. Hey Build one of those Mag Amp Coils . I'll work on a Circuit ..
@Nieves

Hmmm . Well i know you could Charge another battery up with that hanging BEMF diode for sure huh ?Then make a Switcher out of a 555 Timer for a set switched time . .
