Joule Thief

[Artic_Knight]

did i hear that the earth batteries are resonating at 2.4MHZ ?  you know the resonance of water is 2.4GHZ which is what microwave ovens use to heat water and thus food! i wonder if theres a connection here as they are strangely alike.

@jeanna
this is the tesla bifiliar i use, its created by using one wire, folding in half and winding it a number of turns then cut the fold in half, join the output of one coil to the input of the other and you get 2 coils side by side as one coil, is this what you are using jenna?

I  have a dewalt 18 V battery  that has not responded to my capacitive  charger      I am thinking of  setting up  a  Jesus JT  with  a secondary  that puts out   20 to 25 V     I will   use 1 diode to keep  the current  going  in the right  direction .
If it does not work .........that is OK ........I have tried everything else I know of to recondition it .....    It is  useless  as it is .....only 1.2 V 

I am also thinking of putting  one of these on my  car battery
I  try to  recondition  it  a couple times a year .  I don't  have a good place to  do that right now
It takes  a couple  days to  do  it right.
If  you try tio rush the process you  mostly boil off electrolyte 
I am thinking that even  .12 A  24 hr a day would  be a pretty  good  reconditioner

any jt should do, even the basic ones.

my experience with batteries with voltage without amps is comming from that "charger".
it does also recharge rechargeable batteries, but it take days to fully charge them.
the volts is the first thing to reach 1.2 volts, usually within a few hours.
once the max voltage of the battery is reached, charging it in a conventionnal charger, if you are in a hurry, will work.

you can extend the battery's life this way, but there are limits.
the charges the battery will be able to hold, if it worked, will not be as if the batttery was new.

@all

Again for those that did not see it yet ! Even Stefan commented it as 2:1 overunity  .

This can work with the jt , gadget know !

I made a new circuit schematic
Jesus

I put together your selfcharger on today's experimental toroid. Not the new one, but the one from yesterday with improvement 1 which is the second diode going to the battery rail.

I wound a small but bigger pickup of 40 turns over a collector coil of 11turns. and that pickup is running 2 leds in series. The ac in the pickup has too much voltage to run just one or many in parallel.

The basic joule thief light is lit across the E-C junction, and the diodes of your improvement 1  design are both going into the battery rail into the + side of the battery.

Nothing is melting or even hot.

Wow, jesus, this is really exciting. (I guess you can tell I was a bit scared of it!)

So, I will have to wait to see how much it charges, won't I?
Is there a way to 'watch it'?
I didn't get a reading across the battery terminals.

This is so excellent.
The ac being made by the JTC is able to do its regular work and the dc otherwise lost in the circuit can complete the dc circuit and fill the battery.

If this collects ANY of what is normally lost to nowhere'sville, this is a great advancement.
It is not necessary to achieve more than the original battery charge (OU) for this to be a success.

You do realize that don't you?

I am so wanting to be able to peek into the battery and watch it charge up!!
EDIT
I looked at the schematic again and realized that you do not have the led in the bjtl spot. I took it out. It was going dim.

@Artic Knight
That is an excellent drawing of the basic joule thief primary bifilar wires.
Thank you. Well done!
I think this is the reason it has been so successful from the beginning.
Good job.
Thank you,
