Joule Thief

@All new people
Hello! I saw a couple of first-JT creators while reading in a hurry. Great job guys!

@All
People, seriously, is the prideful bickering doing anyone any good? We are all here for the same thing: the most energy for the least input; or something along those lines. But to do that, we have to work together. To keep things scientific, things have to be replicated. Those of us that aren’t very inventive still play a part by making sure that the work of others can be replicated. For those of us that aren’t very experienced, replicating something still feels like quite an accomplishment. So, if people want to post about their accomplishments, so what? If you do not want to read it, scroll past it. It does not hurt you. If someone offers to sell something to help put food on his table and give a less experienced person a boost in their workings here, SO WHAT? If it is a relevant object to what we are doing and it helps someone in their work, then I see no issue. If you don’t like it, scroll past their post. If you don’t want to read their posts for any reason then scroll past it. Some of you act like you are being forced to read every single post.

I, for one, would like to see Gadget and Mark back on here, and anyone else who has left. Everyone is needed.

I am a newbie. I know very little about electrical engineering. But, trying to learn from replicating things I see on this thread had been very rewarding. Like, Bill, I have said that I would like to run my A/C from a JT or any other clean, free, etc. energy. I will not stop until I can. I couldn’t care less if everyone on here gave me shit every time I post. I’m not on here for anyone’s approval. I’m here to learn, contribute what I can, and hopefully run my A/C from JT/free energy. So to those that have left recently, just keep in your mind what you came here for in the first place. We need every person!

And to those giving a hard time to people trying to sell the products of their labor, remember that they are probably in the US and it is not a good time to live here. People are broke, going broke, or will be broke. Some of us have to get money so we can survive and take care of our families. If that means selling circuit boards or science demo items made from recycling electronics(what I will do ASAP), then that’s what we have to do.

I saw the video but I could not catch the changes he made to the circuit. If you understood, Can you make those changes visible on this composition?

@electricme
Nice drawing general.

The trigger 3055 was replaced with a 2n2222.

With a diode comming off the collector of 2n2222 allso.

Allso if you run the a HV line from the light to the collector of the 2n2222 it will allso get brighter.

1 assembled solar jt light stick kit

it works ok ...

@ All:

Here are some pics of my latest coil light (cfl look alike) which now is smaller and uses two 265,000 mcd leds on each end.  I think it looks pretty good and I am almost happy with it.  Of course, I am driving it with a single AA on the toroid JT circuit.  The tube is filled with just water for now.

Very Nice Liquid Light Jt . I would Buy one

Very Cool Ist . IST . I know it work a good.

thanks people . . Back to making Stuff from Stuff !
