Joule Thief

In a sence isn't this free energy or at lease one on the most efficient and clean energy.  I think it must be a record!

Thank you very much.  Well, to me it is free energy but others on Youtube will not agree on this point.  One guy told me that it takes thousands of amps of electricity to make a magnesium block so it isn't free energy.  I said that that power was already spent, and the block was on a shelf somewhere in a warehouse so to me, once the material costs (mine) are surpassed, it is free energy.  I mean, it takes electricity to make transistors, caps, etc.  At some point, I think it is rediculous to factor all of that in.  It took electricity to make the copper wires in our homes but, we don't get billed for that every month by the power company.

There may end up being some consuming of the magnesium annode over time, I don't know.  This is the first I have run a set-up of this size so we will see.  But, to me it is a form of free energy, or at least, free to me energy or even almost free to me energy.  Whatever it is, I like it.  Thanks for your comments.

@ Jeanna:

Thank you for posting your comments on youtube.  Now, I want to build one of those coils that is shocking Jim and hazens and power that with the EB.

OOO goodie
I just got my 3.38" toroid!!

There nice looking aren't they?

Electric company charging you for the copper wire...Don't give them any ideas

I understand what some people are saying but only you have all your parts that are reasonably priced to me anyways it would be free that's my goal as well!

I tried  adding windings to my  LM1.2     The  voltage  went down rather than up .

It does seem to be a  little  stronger though.

One thing good about it .   From what I have seen when  pulsing  coils  to get  back EMF pulses   the  coil   you  use    for the pulsing  has to be higher inductance than  the  receiving  coil .


\
I have  a feedback  loop with one LM1 running now .
I find that   it is easy to tune the  system  if you  have a couple of meters .


I am reading   1.3309 V  on the battery        the  current from the battery is .03A     
The output is  reading 61V with  the LED array on .  95 with the  array dissconnected .     
With the  array disconnected    I get a reading of .25A  This  is probably not an accureate reading  because of frequency and spikes .

maybe tomorow I will  hook  up  my bridge  and cap to the out and  read the  DC output  for a while .

My array is  pretty dim at this power setting .....right now I am more interested in  the  OU  than the power .


   
Here is a picture  of  my LN1s

Not pretty but easy to play with

I  just  gave up on posting  my other pictures today

I just spent most of the last hour getting timed out .

On the  positive side  I was running my  LM1.2 and  making  spikes with my LM1

It is  clearly OU .

It had been stable for around an hour .

If  I had not  been sitting  here waiting  for  my  post to go though I would not have noticed that   the battery had dropped  half a volt and   the LED array was starting to flicker .
I wiggled a couple  of wires  that I have  had  problems  with on my breadboard .......and the flickering stopped ....... a few minutes later  the  voltage was back   up  there ......  around 1.305         
It seems to be the battery  that is holding  the circuit  at a  fairly constant voltage .........I hope I am not frying it
