Joule Thief (Emergency Light) 021

I think that we all want to use off grid power.

3v Input and HV Output.

I think I could Trickle Charge this from Solar Cells or even run it of a Large Capacitor..

Did you notice the startup time... On then Off No warm up needed...

Enjoy..

Paul..

that is realy bad for it

if you are running on batery's and pull the light out

it overpowers this chip

Ill remember that thanks...

Very nice light Paul. I was just playing around with one of my FL circuits today. I like the light that they put out.

[kubikop]

I must take a look at your videos I have not been on youtube for a bit..

Paul..

Yup even with low current and voltage if you amplify the voltage you'll get more watts, specially with a tesla coil.

[kubikop]

Im working on a couple of Teslas to wirelessly transmit it.

how long will it run on the 2 aa ? with only one charge

[smeggerss]

how long will it run on the 2 aa ?

thanks good ideea

[windoes98se]

lol, you can use ths as a recharge able flashlight

[MgmDAS]

I will thanks electronic parts donations, like PV solar cells, high brigh LEDs and NiMH or LiIon batteries to make lighting devices for poor comunities here in Brazil.

Good grounding seems to play a big part in long distance power transmission. I have sent you a video you may find interesting in relation to this subject.

Nothing to worry much on those small neon circuit they use small part but not impossible to find one. I have one that came out of and old 17" lcd monitor i had to do reverse ingeniring to get the schematic and found out that it was working with 2 npn transistor 2 resitor and 1 cap draw about 600 mA on 8.5 volts of course any input voltage can be use the tube will be dim or bright.

[robot797]

i have plans that work on a camer flash and up to an 40 watt fluressent tube (1 aa batery)

if you want the pm me
