2021-11-23 Replace Germanium With Silicon Transistors
I also remember those projects that used the CK722 and 2N107. The last few years I have been repairing older transistor radios with germanium transistors. I have had a few of them with bad germanium output transistors, and I’ve replaced them with silicon PNP transistors, along with a change in base bias resistors. They work

Here is my latest germanium Joule Thief, shown squeezing the last few hundred millivolts out of the Energizer Bunny (“It just keep going and going…”). This is a real Zombie Battery Killer – that last half volt left after the regular silicon JT has given up is now sucked out, down to less than0.2V.
