This is the circuit from Chan's website (http://elm-chan.org/works/led1/report_e.html) which I modified and hived off two components. The modified circuit is seen here. The circuit is very robust and it worked with a wide variety of transistors; I tried BC547, 2N2222 and 2n3904. The coil I used had 25 turns each, of 26 gauge wire. Resistor R1 changes the intensity of the light. I tried values between 2KOhm to 220Ohm and I settled for 220Ohm. The light is quite bright at this value.
