Radiant Energy from the Joule Thief Circuit

In this experiment, I use the Back EMF coming from the coil and feed it back to the positive side of the battery, only to notice that I have a reduction in current draw, more voltage, same frequency and same light brightness. With a saving of current draw of 0.41 Watt. This wiring is different from the Original joule Thief diagram from Wikipedia as my output connection of my lamp is going to the positive side of the battery. So from positive input at the start of the coil through a diode, a lamp and back to positive input. Full project of Lumin Lamp is open sourced at: hackaday.io/project/202277-lumin-lamp

Great video

Great video, You can reduce the current draw by replacing the diode with a capacitor in series.

I tried that and it didn’t work. To capture the collapsing magnetic inductive spike even from a small device like in this example, I use a diode to rectify this radiant energy back into a DC energy, that’s what John Bedini did for most of his devices. So to capture this radiant energy you can put a capacitor but only after the germanium diode and in parallel otherwise you loose the radiant energy from your system. Putting a capacitor in series in a DC system will only block your energy. Hope this helps!⚡️⚡️⚡️
