New Jewel Thief "Resonate LCR Circuit" Much less energy draw....

[jadaro2600]

Hi Guys

New to this forum and just attempting some of the new JT variants.  Has anyone had success with a simplified 'SEC' type version such as was posted by Xee (but JohnnyDav design) however with really low voltage/amp draw rather than 5 volt input?
I'm looking for something that will run on the smell of an ozone vapor :-)

Thanks for your help

You may be able to activate something with such a smell ...a mosfet in enhancement mode is particularly sensitive to voltage changes, and may cut on at very low voltages, but then you would be using it as a switch.

Considering you may be making a sarcastic statement, then Kooler has a 'backwards Joule Thief' variant here:http://www.overunity.com/index.php?topic=6123.msg229273#msg229273 and here:http://www.overunity.com/index.php?topic=6123.msg230055#msg230055 which uses very low current.

If you aren't, then you may be able to create a differential galvanic probe, ( just two unlike metals within close proximity to one another ).

I considered doing this myself to test for voltage distortions in the atmosphere; I noticed that when I brought my finger close to a mosfet, the ohmic resistance of the source to drain changed ( drastic variations ).

Thanks for taking the time to post the links.  Appreciate it!  Yes...despite you humoring my potential at a serious comment, it was just dry sarcasm on my part regarding the whiff of ozone. 

Up and away!

lol, I've learned that there are plenty of crazy ideas floating around here.  Your's even seems feasible with the right equipment.

'Crazy'?  indeed not so much, I constantly remind myself.  After awhile of experimenting within this 'shadowland' of alternate energy that most people are totally oblivious to (as they race from their 9-5 job to purchase new big screen TV etc), it becomes very easy to start accepting "the crazy" we ourselves might have dismissed years ago. 

I have seen some amazing things and feel that nothing is impossible.....only a closed mind.

I'm wondering if anyone has made any further mods to this type of circuit?

I'm trying to understand how it works - there are several variant diagrams, but all are in principle the same.

There seems to be a lack of updates here - even considering the unusually low current input.
