I find TIP31C+TIP32C combo perform much better with the price of one 2N3055. The transistor has less ampere rating than 2N3055, but I never need high ampere rating because my circuit run under 2 Amp. BD313 (2SB507?) is better than 2N3055 too.
As long as I never spark connection to the charged battery, it survive. At 3V input my TIP31C+TIP32C circuit jolt me real good when I forget to increase the resistance. Three brand of 2N3055 I try can not run at 3V.
If you can get a broken computer power suply at the price of 2N3055, it contain then transistor I mention. My best is KSC5027. But TT2188 or 2SC3866 is not so bad either. Still much much better than 2N3055.

substitution for mjl21194 because all schematics refer to 2n3055 instead of
mjl21194, only one time I saw on one croatian energetic forum that one
guy advise tip 31, but I thought he wants to be greater chatolic than pope
himself, so I neglected his advise...NOw that you told me the same thing...
Thank you again, that is why this forum is, isnt it ?
Can you specifie which diodes you use instead of 4007 ?
