I have constructed an earth battery and a joule thief which seems to fire up the Jt. My earth battery ouput is around .8vdc. My Jt. lights up with a
unbelievable voltage of around .5vdc with a LARGE led. Can I feed a
voltage doubler with the Jt? I messed up my earlier post with insufficient
details. Sorry. I would like to pick up the voltage to about 1.85 volts with
this approach but unsure which diodes and caps to pick for my voltage
doubler. Is this even possible? I need about 1 amp @ 1.85 volts if
possible. What do you think? I am trying to understand this stuff the best
I can and need a little help if you can. Thanks so much... This is a hugely
important project for everybody. I plan to post schematics when finished.
It's amazing what all you can do with a measly 1.85 volts!!
