Why won’t it oscillate EP-50 26 Lighthouse

From Electronic playground. Doesn’t blink in simulation, not sure what value to use for inductors, but won’t blink. Anyone have a solution?

Use the center tapped winding of a transformer instead of separate inductors. There's nothing to couple feedback from collector to base in this cct.

Set its inductance to be 0.1-1 mH if you want something like a joule thief.

Hey thanks for the response I’ll give that a shot. But how is tapping a transformer different than two inductors?
