MAKE A JOULE THIEF

Link


A very small implementation of a typical transformer feedback single transistor invertor. The transformer was a standard ferrite bead with two windings wound on it and the circuit was using the high voltage pulse generated when the transistor turns off to light an LED from a single 1.5V battery right down to about 0.35V

You can also cram it into what was a flashlight bulb.
