I may get you some screen saver quality picture soon 

@E-Goose

Its not a necessary end game for me over unity , to me its more a over use of what i have .

I am how ever interested in your result , would you be kind enough to bring some substance to the claim , numbers maybe photos , and process used to determine the results .

I never constructed anything that was not totally recyclable .

I started with one bulb i could light , now i got 5 it lights a 4v 500 mili bulb , and i can run my bendini fan motor/generator from a 1.2 volts instead of 9-12 volts.

I really don't consider it wasted time , i believe making small steps learning all the way , i do see constant progress.

More detail Please !!!

Kind regard

kool.. i'll take mine in a 1920 X 1200 res
when you get time..

Hi Mark

Sorry, I didn't mean to come across negative or killjoy and I agree with your sentiments.  'Trial and error' experimentation (making things) is NEVER a waste of time, especially when you walk away from the experience learning just one new thing (even if it is how not to make the same mistake again  ).

Like you I have been building various coils and slowly the volts climb a little bit with each design.  Some coils you keep, others are real 'Doc Brown' Masterpieces like yours and others you recycle, otherwise after a very short time you have no space and boxes of crazy coils you can't remember did what. 

I have messed with the Rodin Type before and when you started posting here I adapted a few older jigs I had and made a couple variants while you were still getting your big jig right.  As previously mentioned I don't have a digi so no pics (sorry) but the diameter is probably larger than yours although NOT as tightly spaced (pegs further apart).  I went for a slightly different approach and wound two internal 'toroids' spaced with a mulitstrand collector coil (8 turns or so), then built two more 'toroids' of basketweave.  I then placed another collector on the perimeter.  After removing the pegs I ran another collector cable through the peg holes.  Its certainly very pretty with all the different cable color 

Results -

It runs on very low current and you can crank the resistor at base very high with the led lit at E/C still ultra bright.  This however comes at a cost to the heavy collector coils running between the layers and their output will drop right down

I used my own JT Circuit with Darlington pair (but not the one you posted).

It is NOT possible to reap from multiple collectors AND a central coil within the toroid core.  Using too many collectors disrupts the 'flow'. 

The cable which runs through the old peg holes collects NOTHING.

That's all I can think of for now.

Kind regards

@e-goose

I never tried led on it , but i can say one thing there are many sweet spots
I should make a video of it , so those sweet spots show the bright light but dim under load , and others don't this is the thing i noticed on one of my first coil , also i don't have the tools to do a proper output reading , i just have a lousy multimeter , that goes crazy on the coil so i use bulbs ...

Edit

Try connecting a diode full bridge between both transistor collector , check the output there ...

I am quite surprised you got it working at low amps but the fun is higher , what transistor do you use ?

But all and all , the jt never was claimed as a OU device , my coil used for many more experiments on the tpu ...

@all

Done!
