Congrats on getting your "green" torid working

You got excellent voltage out of it, well done.

@Bill,
Yes, that procedure Mk1 did for me is excellent, I also will be printing it out, when I get to a printer,lol.

@ Gadgetmall,
I'm worried about that item, you should have got it by now, I hope it hasn't  gonee astray, well give it a little bit longer.
Mabe customs took an interest in it, not that it isn't anything else than a switch and a bunch of resistors, 2 leads and clips.

I once was sent a package from the US about Stubblefield stuff, it took ages before it got to my end.


About that transistor getting hot, the resistor is solded to a leg of the LED, so it dosent blow, it's a current limiter, I have a resistor connected to the base, it's at the other end of the black clip on the base of the Tr, attatched to a big black wheel!!!!

unfortunately they dont like cheeze, it is only a myth, they like more maize or corn. So better you use bread.
