I took pieces of different circuits and joined them to make a 555 timer "Pulsed Invered Joule Thief".  It uses Slayer007's 2" toroid coil, Kubikop's 555 timer pulsed joule thief circuit, and my inverting of the whole idea.  The circuit runs a regular 24" flourescent tube at full brightness using .75 amps at 8 volts.
