Hi,
I'm trying to build a cigarette lighter using one or two AA rechargeable batteries (1.2v and 2400mA) using steel wire as heating element.
I was think about using a joule thief to boost voltage from 1.2v to something like 12v. Is it possible ? Can anyone give me a schematics with proper values to do this ?
Also, I would like to build it inside a tiny box (2in x 5in x 1in WxHxD), so is it possible to use small ferrite cores ?
Thanks !![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
