This is funny.
I like this guy's irreverence and Aussie tone. An excellent point in the early going is what an inductor really is. For those who think over-unity devices are possible, check your knowledge of basic circuitry before making such claims.
He also discusses LEDs and brings up some interesting ideas of getting greater efficiency by using high current, short duty-cycle pulses. That gives me some ideas for lighting up a garden. I recall the idea of strobe lights being used a loooooooooooooooong time ago, and LEDs can be driven in the GHz range. But don't forget your current limiting resistor.
There are many nuggets of bench-top wisdom, too, when he begins the actual circuit hook-up (~32m mark)
