Second Stage Joule Thief Circuits

jeanna
i will post a diagram soon.. the ccfl driver puts off a perfect sine wave then i put a 1n4007 diode
at 5 volts the ccfl driver puts out alittle over 1kv so 6 volts gives.. ?? lol

xee2
i was dumping 960-980 volts thru the triac.. then i blew a cap.. they are rated for 630v dc

but the circuit is dumping around 300 volts the best i can tell in both videos..
i was thinking that was still 980v both i forgot i took the sidac off the neons..
more to come..

Hi Kooler once you posted a schematic of a JT with TIP31c and consuption was 0.016ma only. Is there other transistors or near that consumes that much?
Thanks

hello guruji
the mpsa06 works good for some reason. i think it cause it cuts off real sharp..

Nice circuit.  How bright would you saw the bulb is?  That is really something, nice job.
