Joule Thief 101

[MileHigh]

Wattsup:

If you are going to cross a road, and it is a two-way street, then it behooves you to look both ways before you cross because if you only look one way and don't look both ways then you could get hurt.

The discussion of a resonating wine glass is absolutely germane to discussion of a possible "resonant Joule Thief."  New knowledge is built upon previous knowledge.  That is the way you go up the learning curve.  So if you can't describe a resonating wine glass and understand how it works, then why should you be able to understand other resonance phenomena including an alleged "resonant Joule Thief?"

If you have no foundation, then you are effectively building a house of cards that will collapse in a slight breeze.  If you want to take my advice, you yourself need to work up on building up your own foundation.  It looks like you have some very nice bench equipment and a nice space to work in.  It would be so nice to seeing you "getting it" when it comes to "conventional EE" before you start looking into the esoteric.  It's just a comment, I know that you are going to do your own thing.

OK Y'all....here is your resonance.

What an artist this guy is...I mean, I can get a glass to ring like this with my finger if all conditions are correct but...this guy hits all of these glasses and then does harmony as well?  Let us all take a moment and chill out and rejoice in the fantastic world we live in.

This is fantastic!

Very impressive, but I think around here it's more like this:

Ha ha...that was pretty funny.  Never know what those damn Muppets will do next.

This shows the mechanics of the generation of a magnetic field based on the existence of a moving point charge

OOOhhh-wait a minute here.
Were you not one of the guru's that laughed at me when i said that the magnetic force was flowing charges?, and yet here you are promoting a video explaining a magnetic field around a moving charge lol.

I have a basic Brad Secret Decoder Ring.

No point in me going any further,as last time i put forward my theory on the magnetic force,you guru's all laughed at me---and yet you post video's showing magnetic fields around a moving point charge.

So you can Google away to your heart's content or even better go take some university courses in quantum mechanics.  That's about all that you are going to get out of me on this matter.
If you are not satisfied with my links to provide a basic summary for an answer to your question, then answer your question yourself.

What is it with you guy's(the guru's) ?.
It's like you  want to know the top speed of a car,so you jump in,take off down the road,hit 100MPH,and then say--no,thats fast enough-no need to go any faster,-and you hit the brakes.

and the most common moving point charge is an electron:

Do you even know what a point charge is,or why they use that term !point charge! MH?--or have you just chucked it in there because you read it in a book,or the guy in the video mentioned it?.
You need to get away from the electron as being the all mighty--as it is not when it comes to electromagnetic radiation.
What other elementary particles have no internal structure MH?. Which one is the force carrier in the !magnetic force!?. And what would it be called-or known as in a static situation?.
Once you have that answer,as i said before,only then will you understand my questions i posted a while back,regarding a device that uses this uni directional force to generate a direct current.

What you are really asking me is what a magnetic field is, a la tatted Kenny.

No.
The magnetic field,and the magnetic force are two different thing's.
Stop looking at what causes a magnetic field,and start looking at what the magnetic force actually is.
Then come back and have another laugh at my theory on the magnetic force being the flow of positive and negative charges-->and stop thinking that charge is limited to !an electric! charge.
Your mind has such a small scope MH.
