hello this is maker J 101 and lately I've been playing around with jewel thieves they're pretty neat little circuits that are that will take 1.5 volts in and put out enough power to run an LED normal dual T circuits have two two windings around Detroit but this one here is a little different I added a third winding that's a bit longer and it puts out enough power to run a neon light bulb which is probably at least 50 volts so yeah and I took that concept a little bit farther at the third one day and so I racked I used to be instead of troit I use the very core of a flyback transformer and so I'm basically just using the the high voltage wire in here so as a third winding so it's a basically three winding Joule thief it's got three one so I've got my biggest real thick 30 terms of real thick wire here twenty turns of a small gauge wire so yeah here are the transistors that I'm using important I've got two of these transistors hooked in parallel so I've got double the amps and then over here I've got a 50 ohm resistor that I made out a whole bunch of little Springs because I couldn't find one that was 50 ohms that was that could handle that many amps and then here's the circuit well these transistors are the best ones I could find that would make the biggest spark this one was the best though and but it burned out because the high voltage accidentally hit the wire and jolt it but this one is a two and three Oh 55 and it will put out 1 and 1/4 inch sparks so that one looks really good burn out so pretty much any transistor large transistor will work these ones work pretty good but these ones work better because I guess because they're bigger these were actually from a TV so for a CRT monitor the flyback transformer that I'm using here I'm using this one instead of like those ones because there's more room in between here so I can get wires in there these ones here it would be very hard where it would take a while to get the windings around there because this because it's set in there this one also has the same problem so that's why I'm using this one here's the circuit I drew up using this one using this transistor if you want to look at that - normal Joule thief circuit priority know that so now I'll show you it working here turn on the 12 volt power spot oh wait a minute something my host I think yeah so it's pretty powerful so yeah in later video I'll show what can you can do with this high voltage that's about it thanks for watching
