Joule Ringer!

[Harvester]

What gauge and length wire do you use and what do you charge?
The coil I tested this with was just a quicky, using network cable (CAT 5e - stripped shielding),
which has 4 twisted strands of two twisted strands each, giving me 8 wires.
I use them in pairs at the transistors, 1 trigger, 3 slaves.
Because of insulation thickness of each strand, this might not be the most efficient
I am going to wind another one with 50m (55 yards) of AWG 22, 6 strands.
Aim is to get some forklift batteries and rejuvenate and charge them, to use them with an inverter.
What do you think, is this too ambitious?
Would I need a larger coil?
I would like to stay SS, as I do not believe in moving parts.

My joule ringer failed - cooked all the transistors

Hi to all,
Tested my joule ringer in the Philippines

4 circuits all failed heating up the transistor 2n3055 and mje121194
base trigger
1. 1 M 5 k pot with .082 cap - 200 ma max with 50 % brightness worked for a month and still ok till i changed to the following

a. 220 ohm 5 w series with 5 k and diode 1n4007 to transistor current from 170 to 1.5 amperes full brightness but only lasted 1 hr and transistor fried

b. 10 k pot 1/4 w series with diode in4007 - fried right away
c 1 m resistor series with 10 k and diode - no resonance
d 220 ohm R series with 10 k series with diode fried after 1 hour

my supply voltage 13 v dc 7ah sla battery charged by 5 watt solar
load parallel 5 220 v ac led lamps 5 w ea

last connection
battery to inverter 500 w 220 v ac output I in dc 1.5 A Iac out 2.5 A

I think the 1st one will be adopted but 50 % brightness only and can last from 6 pm to 6 am duration

Dont know what happened since b. was tested in China for 2 weeks w/o any glitches

Hope others can share their results also

thanks

Guys:
I know that this does not have much to do with this thread, but I had to put it somewhere...
A year ago Lasersaber showed a video on April Fools day, about a working A-F-P device, "Dr. Lirpa Sloof technology".
And now a year later is the 2nd part of the video in answer to the how the device works.
What do you think??? That transistor must be very very hard to find...

Big fan of Dr. Lirpa Sloof. Very common transistor...

Very small but powerful transistor, I use them in all my OU circuit's

hey guys been awhile since i been around.. seen some dusty roads since then ..
i finally had a moment to sit down and watch some of you guys videos
and nick don't let lasersaber's april fools videos get to you..
he does a very nice job in all his videos..
i just now watched this video thru nickz link and i have to say nice job laser .. hope to see more great videos like this one and last years..

Hey Kooler:
Great to hear from you. Been missing you around here...

Yes, I've been racking my brain about this device for a year, but finally I found the illusive TIP transistor, had to special order it direct from -Lirpa Sloof Technologies-.
I finally got the device working, but, I connected it to my electric lawn mover, and now it runs backwards.
What did I do wrong??? Please help...

Fake or not?

That vid was a fake or not? Scratchrobot did you tried that on that vid?
What is that transistor 0401?
Thanks

look at the photo i attached it shows the wire coming out of his sleve and up the cord..

@Joit
Interesting....it seems to work for SkyWatcher.
Leaving out the cap, according to your theory, also makes sense.
A cap would smooth out voltage peaks, right......... which I do not really want.
Wander if the spikes can hit the battery, before the cap can take action?

Hi,
I did not see a lot spikes anymore, when i did connect a Cap, its more then a pulse what is left.



Anyone else, btw, just read Dr Lirpa sloof backwards, then you know at what Time the Setup is real.


Nice Video here, didnt know, that a shorted Wire or a Cap can improove a JT.

Wow Lasersaber is a magician thanks kooler

In that video shorted capacitor is actually LC circuit. There is whole realm on parallel LC free resonant circuit with main coils.. They are very good on energy storage in coils and do lots of other things...

ok, thanks, will remove charging cap and see what it does in the next couple
of days. or did you remove the one from the input side as well?
my scope is from the last ice age and am sure i can hear gears spin, after
winding up the rubber band, when turned on
so all i can see is a "j" with bottom pointing to the right. need a new scope.........

what about a full wave rectifier? Have you done tests on that?
The original diagram only has 1 diode.

also, if you do not use US date format, e.g. europe, then the transistor is called TIP0ff0104

Ah, right, i totally missed that .

I had once a Cap at input Side, but the Spike goes backward too, throught the Coil, so its eating it up too.
It did seems that a cap at the Charge did improve the charge, but J. Bedini meant, then you do miss an other Effect. But his Setup is anyway a bit different at the Coils and Magnets, it seems to me that they have a different interaction.
I tried a rectifier, but better are fast Diodes like a BY255, or different one. That is one brand what i found, is common and do work for me in a way.
You can put more in parallel or serial, i only found, when you put them in serie the Voltage charge faster then Amp does. If, i put them in parallel then. But for the kinda small Projects i got, (charging with ~8-12V, 70-35mAh) i use only one Diode.
I am ok for now to charge my Batteries for my Meters and torchs and some bigger lead Acids.
I still like this old Scopes, so far they can keep up with the Frequency, it shows Current better as the new LCD Scopes, because they are brighter, where the Current appear.
Since the Potential there is between Plus Diode and Plus source, you should connect the Probe to the Diode and ground to Plus Source, then you should see positive Spike.

Hi guys
I got a jouleringer, Penny-like, working by just my fingers and 2 metals.

maybe it could charge a supercap to power something, just by touching it..
