Joule Thief

[innovation_station]

you know what my problem is lol

i cant stop changeing my mind.... 

lol
i will rewind this unit and make the first mk2 garden wire core unit ...  with litz style wire 10 strand  the pickup coils will be as mk2 coil

so i will require 40 22gage wires  twisted in 4 groups of 10 and the pickups will be wound bifillar in the mk1 way...

ist

i took a few pics when the core was wound for the mk4x4  here they are   it is now wound as a mk2 ...  ill add pics later on when i finish the other side of windings..

this pic is 1 8' picup coil  after being twiisted im down to about 7'

I then removed the needle, and inserted the transformer into the joule thief circuit and tested it.  It works with either coil going to the base - current made to flow in opposite directions.  The strange thing about this is...using my most recently posted schematic, removing the LED from the circuit, I get a higher voltage reading when I make current flow through the smaller gage wire on the inside than if I set the smaller gage wire to pass to the collector.

Jadaro,

Would you please explain this again?

Are you only connecting this needle wound bit that is in the galactic center?

Is no other part of the toroid connected in your circuit?

I will try something like this. I like this. I wonder if the galactic center is the inflow or the outflow of the energy in this system? Good. It is only 10 AM. I can get started!

thank you,

jeanna

ist, keep trying?? (I have never been successful uploading anything to youtube.myself)

Apparently last night, in my experimentation, I confused a few people,

For clarification;  I simply wound a bunch of 30 gage wire around a needle, and then a bunch of 26 gage wire around that, and then a third 26 gage around that.  The number of turns was increasingly less - however the voltage produced by the second winding significantly increased if I ran the current through the smaller inner winding.  Leaving the needle in gave it better flux response.

I haven't made any new toroids - even though I should - I've been trying to figure the best setup - and as I noticed above, the ignition coil-like setup isn't working like an ignition coil!

@xee2,

Not exactly, but now that you've posted it, I'll test that one later too - it seems worth a try.  I've already tested one where the outer winding is a bifilar. with little results.

@jeanna,
No, I haven't tested the galactic center idea yet - I haven't even come up with a setup that wouldn't put all the axis perpendicular to one another.

@Mk1,
Is induction supposed to be a weaker force than flux?

Jadaro,
That each coil should be perpendicular to each other was what my 'dream' or 'download' told me to do!

That is why I got excited when I first saw your posts.

thank you, I will be testing this soon.

@jadaro

It induce the voltage it has , so max 3 volt , 1.5 max per wire average 3 volts max about 2 volts rectified.

Try again with the inner copper core replaced by iron , it would need insulation .
