I have a 2N3704 transistor (rather than a 2N3904) so the Base, Collector, and Emitter of this NPN are in different locations...

I also have a regular 2xAA battery holder which somebody has hacked and is slightly melted on one side! I will use this as a single AA battery holder. So my toroid centre tap goes to battery +ve.
