Joule Thief Pirate Light

This is a simple light fixture made using a modified Fuji circuit Joule Thief and a disposable plastic food container. It lights up an 18" tube pretty well and this is very easy to read by. It throws light 360 degrees around the room and works well. I was planning on using another Jeanna light circuit I made but I must have a short somewhere so I stuck in the Fuji. I will use the new circuit on another light project when I get it fixed. For more information go to Overunity.com in the many joule thief topics. Thanks for watching.

...well I got pissed of now, in all joule videos from all users IT IS JUST FCUKING ANNOYING BLURRY focus - why ra fcuk you close up camera when it makes it even worse blurry - God damn it, at least you could learn that from your previous videos (for God sake guys) don't post such a cool electronics with such a crap VIDEO :@ F*ALL

@shpixi

What is wrong with your computer? It is not blurry at all when I view it and many others have replicated this with no problems at all. Probably you should fix your computer before casting insults. I am sure your videos are perfect? Where are they?

@zintoit

Thanks. A lot of good info over there. I just have no easy way to get a schematic into my videos. I don't think my software supports inserted stills and if I tired to video a drawing, it does not show up at all, or not readable. If you have any questions on building the Fuji circuit, pm me and I will be glad to try to help. It is very easy to do really.

Thanks,

Bill

@Pirate88179 well I do apologize :D am sorry for bad behavior,,,SORRY - just that I was rely curios to understand all as it should be understood from great experiment... and blur was pissing me of - I'm sorry again sir!!!

@Pirate88179 Thanks, and sure thing I'll upload a video tomorrow gotta get some sleep. :)

@MasterTxJ

Excellent work! That is great news. I have never really test for longevity so this is good info, and with 3 volts input too. That Fuji is a pretty robust circuit considering what it was designed for. Post a video response here of your light and I will approve it so folks can see it.

Again, nice work.

@Pirate88179 Just rewatched some of your videos and saw that I had commented here. Thought I might give an update on the camp light I built after seeing this vid. I ended up using 2 D batteries in parallel and I can tell you, that lamp gave a steady light a several of hours every evening and night during that camping trip/vacation. All 3 weeks. I still use it sometimes and it's still the same batteries but you have to stroke your hand over the tube now to get it to light and it's a bit weaker.

What do you mean long and tedious? Go to the JT diagrams and schematics topic area...ALL drawings are there for many Joule Thief circuits including the Fuji. There are at least 5 different ways to wire a Fuji circuit and you can pick the one that meets your needs. I posted references there to the large JT topic page and location for every schematic in that topic so you can read just the part that deals with that particular circuit.
