This was really informative! Your English is getting better too! Keep it up!

Very informative,great explaination ever Keep it up bro!

Very nice.

Hy! My question is that your output is 354 V DC, but how are you operating that 220 V AC LED bulb at the output?

[@MousaSimpleProjects]

When you convert 220V AC RMS to DC by full bridge rectifier you end up with 311V DC Peak voltage (220x√2=311). That happen inside the LED bulb anyway. This circuit boost up the voltage a litter bit (354v instead of 311v). So its OK. You can read more here: moodle.weltec.ac.nz/mod/book/view.php?id=244070&chapterid=51920

Should we use power factor correction when using portable electricity generators that run from petrol/gasoline?

[@MousaSimpleProjects]

Yes, because the generator giving you power as apparent power (KVA)

Hey.. The output of this circuit is dc .. that does it means we could run only DC loads, not AC.. is it ?

[@MousaSimpleProjects]

Electronic appliances (such as LED bulb, TV, Laptop charger , ...etc) they have full bridge rectifier inside, so even when you connect them to AC voltage, they convert it to DC before use it, so they in fact working with DC voltage. For induction motors we use capacitors to correct PF.
