    Yes, I am aware of that. I mean I get better efficiency with two, there should be more with four.

    What still puzzled me is how come you still have 900 mA input with three stingo. stingo is a load for source battery, I don't get how you get same consumption with three load....

    Is that the maximum efficiency you can obtain? I found tuning the 500K potentiomer important. Too high value consume more without increasing output current.

    You can use your current stingo. Single stingo with single diode recovery, existing coil. Connect the positive of battery to your bed, connect the diode output to ungrounded water. Then see if it do something.

    JT convert the low voltage to high voltage so it become useable to lit a LED. It allow lower source battery voltage and thus allow more use.

    This is because I think if we connect the return path to 0V we will still be powering the load even if the transistor is in OFF condition. This normal flow may not have the high voltage of coil collapse current and thus seen as waste if it can not lit the LED.

    Stingo Sleeper

    Hi Cikljamas. The Stingo Sleeper is something I've been devoting much attention to lately. My working one, which I've been using pretty much every time I sleep, uses a transformer, which is optimized to put out 60+ volt radiant spikes. I'm also considering using a toroid coil, which I think will work just fine. It puts out 90+ volt radiant spikes when only powered by 1.5V. Any coil that you can get to oscillate at 3 volts or so will do, except, as Sucahyo has cautioned elsewhere, ignition coils, which tend to give off a masculine energy which induces headaches.

    Here's two additional threads where we have been discussing the details of Stingo sleeper circuits:

    Radiant as electric orgone manipulator

    In my setup, I clip the the radiant positive wire to a folded length of aluminum foil, which is submerged in an open gallon jug of tap water. I place this at a distance from the sleeping area. The idea is to create a sink for the male, stimulating energy, similar to that provided by an earth ground.

    The radiant negative wire clips to the metal of my bed frame...making it a type of antenna, which transmits the relaxing feminine energy. I also keep the circuit close to the bed because I think the coil flux transmits a similar type of feminine energy.

    Have you sort out the multiple input and output yet? If not then I think it is better to compare it with single stingo.

    Even with stingo, there is sweet efficiency spot. A spesific potentiometer value that produce most output from input. Different coil or different load has different sweet spot.

    Thic conclusion came after my own experiment and also conclusion from what other experience. For example exciter, SEC or Aaron version of grey circuit. On those circuit the HV part secondary is connected to the primary via the terminal near the transistor. If you going trough the thread, you will see some replicator mention headache and some do not like being in the same room while the circuit is running.


    I hope you understand my point. I hope everyone connect the secondary HV terminal to the terminal near the battery positive.

    Stingo drive car coil with pulsed DC. Scope wouldn't be able to tell the difference because there is no zero reference. I use neon bulb and I can have both AC and DC from stingo just by changing potentiometer value or changing spark gap distance.

    With DC neon bulb will only lit at one side I think everyone agree with this. This video show how I can get DC and AC reading from neon bulb:
    YouTube - Description of arc and spark

    I use neon bulb terminal as spark gap. Unfortunately my camera quality is not good enough to show the neon bulb electrode. So if anyone can replicate this experiment with better camera, I would really appreaciate it.

    Diode at input or even at output do not guarantee DC HV. You can try it with neon bulb as spark. Adding capacitor will produce stable HV DC which may not be appropriate for lifter / TT Brown experiment.

    I think we only have to watch out for the non electric and non magnetic (non EM) danger. My solution is to amplify only the negative electricity side. Since switching a coil revert the polarity, we amplify the one that connect to battery positive.

    When neighboor office friend smoke a lot, I run stingo as corona maker during the work hour for a couple of days. Smoke odor usually gone in an hour after running. Stingo had no problem running all of that time. The problem are corona device reliability and over discharged battery..... The health side: no one have problem sleeping during break, friend in the room have less flues when everyone on other room get flues, friend in the room felt better and mention the room smelt better, and no one get headache.

    I usually don't run a design by you before I jump in and construct, but this one's complex, so I'd appreciate your feedback. As you can see, my choice of using 2 matching car coils complicates the soup because I'm trying to exploit the HV output produced by the secondary, so here's my modified combiner schematic:



    Wadyahthink?
    For health consideration, I would prefer if we revert the connection of the car coil primary, using it upside down in your circuit.

    Some consideration:
    - I still fail to make a working high voltage FWBR. I have high voltage diode from Ben that work ok rectifying my car coil output but will not function as FWBR. neon bulb still lit on both direction on FWBR output.
    - I think one source battery design is easier
    - I prefer to combine the HV output after a diode. A diode for each HV output. Combining before the diode may reduce the current going to the load since they will go the the other car coil instead.
    - Since the load is low impedance relate to HV output. We may end up charging the load with only 25V or so instead of >1000V. But this should be a good way to desulfate a battery.


    I don't think I can make this circuit because I don't have high voltage capacitor. I made a low voltage ceramic cap explode once.... If I replicate I will be using my latest combiner with high voltage diode and cap.

    I hope someone can test high voltage FWBR with a neon bulb.

    He die at old age isn't it? 70 or so.

    For sharp senses, where did you read that? I highly believe that he already a sensitive at young age, already gifted as child, boosted at age 17 or so. If you ever read Garry Vassilatos book, Tesla is mentioned to be able to see a stream coming from a coil. Not spark or corona but white smoke that behave more like an aura than a real smoke.

    Other people die at old age is Mooray and Rife. Both use special vacuum tube.

    I highly believe electronic circuit can produce something other than electric or magnetic, that can influence people in a good way or bad way.

    Guruji, good luck with the toroid, it should work with an adaquate number of windings. Good point in bringing up the question of radiation. I think the qualities of what's emitting from a spark gap are going to hinge on frequency and pulse-width among other factors. I'm glad to see people being aware of and concerned for what is being put out in theirs and everyone Else's environment as a direct consequence of their experiments.

I find, especially with the 500k, that interesting waveforms occur in a very small range of tuning, it would be nice to tune the rough pot until I get an interesting waveform and then tune the finer pots.

    Yes, in that video, I was changing all pot values to attempt to get the highest frequency. I got a "feel" for it while tuning them but it's hard to describe and impossible to show in a video.

    I have been dreaming about a stingo with digitally controlled pots, with a readout somewhere that shows you what each pot is set to... Someday...
    7imix, enjoyed your Walwart transformer and toroid videos. Yes, I've noticed the potentiometer tuning can require very fine adjustment too. Good ideas!

    I will keep it in mind, and I think pulsing one way is the best for radiant energy.

    Thanks for clearing up what you were saying for me, I appreciate that, sometimes i'm a bit "parallel" to what others are thinking. Putting our thoughts in "Series" could be very interesting.

    Thanks Sucahyo

    About this I still not clear. I can only answer if you use neon bulb as load for each of three stingo.

    I still never do efficiency comparison between single and multiple stingo with the latest combiner. It is possible that latest combiner give different efficiency figure. But I still get output in proportion with the number of running stingo. I will make video for this later.

    But, what make me puzzled is you don't have triple output. When I mean 900mA, it is 900mA for all three of them, where each still consume 300mA. But combining three 180mA output give me at least 500mA. And it do not matter if I do not use stingo.

    How come a single running circuit can consume 320, but two running circuit do not draw the same? I think your other circuit is dead. We can find that out by letting each stingo power different load. A load for each stingo. Three neon bulb for three stingo, separate from each other.

    Interesting. How do that compare to the efficiency reported by the circuit designer? Do you achieve similar efficiency as other big joule thief replicator?

    With similar recovery method the advantage of stingo is only with low impedance load. If you use my cap isolated FWBR method, you will have better efficiency than many .

    Do you use the same coil for stingo and joule thief? it can only be equal comparison if you compare using the same primary.

    I still never try to improve stingo efficiency with capacitor since I only have one multimeter. So standard stingo can be easily beaten by a carefully tuned circuit.

    How can that be? If all three of them running, then the input current must be at least tripple?

    If it do not consume more then the other stingo must be dead.

    Try this. Disconnect all stingo from the bridge and use neon bulb only each.


    The input must be tripple if all three neon output litted up.

    If all three produce output, then connect them to combiner one by one.

    Hi Sucahyo !
    I just answered to you in thread "This is it", and i forgot to thank you for

    And after i finished shooting of this video i tried to charge cell phone batt.,
    but it seems that this big JT is not good for that purpose, but for charging
    other big batt. is very, very good...I just tried to decrease all pots to the
    minimum and the result is 310 input, and 190 output, and the best result
    with stingo in this range was 310 - 140...
    So, i am very curious what you are going to comment on this efficiency...

    The stingo is connected to the primary of the car coil, the charging output is from a diode on the Common negative, yeah!, oh! I see what you were asking now I think, yes and the negative of the charging battery go's to the positive of the source, yep. And another wire come's off the common negative as well to one side of the conical winding with the small spark gap, and the other side conical winding is connected to the HV output, the air gap between them.

    I'm sorry I was confused.

    Great . Have you try dead ligth bulb too? What is the nuisance of the spark gap?
    Yeah tried the blown bulb but the one I have only has a small break, the spark gap has to be very small to work when charging a battery minute actually, but if you use a collecter coil you could forgo the regular battery charging and run the sparkless gap for lights and health.

    I wouldn't mind seting up something that looks fancy with some lights, something really efficient, to run all the time with a sall solar panel or something to keep it running. Would be a good talking point.

    Cheers hope I explained that better this time.

    I had the HV from the car coil connected to one conical coil on one side then the air gap between the two tops then on the other side the end of the conical coil was put really close to the common negative of the car coil so to make a very small spark gap an the side but a sparkless air gap at the top, I used a neon aswell for the side spark gap and a blown bulb, both were better for maintainance free use, the very small spark gap was better for output to recover to source battery from the collector coil.
    Thanks. To which part the common negative connect to?

    I have a couple of idea's to try on the conical air gap setup yet but it'll have to wait for a week or two.
