+Lindsay Wilson That would be interesting. It does look like it may be a different style based on an HV transformer and multiplier.

Actually there are quite a few different versions around. Not all of them have the pulse transformer, like yours obviously has.

Lindsay Wilson can you send me them

I have seen x-ray of one of these on internet, and it does seem to have a voltage multiplier on the output

Oliwer Gumowski Neat! Do you have a link for that?

Hi i want a tazer from one of these but i want 0 risk of it being lethal and know im probaly not going to use it on a person unless i really need to but i dont want it to me lethal and i know this comment was 6 years ago but do i need to put a resistor to lower amps or anything or does the voltage mutiplier do it

@@PIXELCRAFT_HD It will give you a good shock, but it won't damage you unless you have cardiac issues. No resistor needed. This is very low current and high voltage. Much like a dog shock collar. Have fun...

@@valveman12 thank you

also what battery did u use into the voltage multiplier

@@PIXELCRAFT_HD I used 2 AA batteries with my design. 2 AA Batteries create a nice arc.

That is an amazingly evil idea

this needs to be top comment :)

There's only one thing I can say to this... FUCKING LOL

Love it! I can see the TV commercials now: "Remove wrenched ankle." ... "AUGH!!! Fucking hell!!"

"Here comes his funny bone" "Can I have a go?"

jaaasgoed The UK government banned privately owned and police monitored pistols that were kept for sporting use (target shooting on registered ranges). The idea was to keep guns away from criminals. Now the criminals have lots of guns. Maybe someone in the government found a ready market. Maybe I am getting old and cynical.

jaaasgoed reminds me of getting full black Airsoft replicas, you have to jump through so many hoops and yet you can buy an air rifle if you're 18.

That's one heavy crossbow.

200lbs is not the weight, but the draw-weight. In effect you are putting 200lbs of energy behind the projectile. The traditional English longbow for example had a 100-120lbs draw-weight. You'd have to train to be able to draw the bow back to it's full strength and therefore the most energy goes pushing the projectile. This tends to be true for compound bows rather than the recurve style you see on the Olympics for example. Compounds tend to require enormous physical skill, strength and technique in order to achieve raw power. Recurves tend to ditch that in favour of precision and accuracy. The idea of draw weight though did transfer over to the crossbow, though it's slightly misleading with modern crossbows. Original crossbows required less physical technique as you could hold it down with your foot and pull back the string using both hands. Equally, modern crossbows have all sorts of ratchets and such that aid in drawing back the string. Ultimately, the crossbow became popular because whilst the longbow required massive levels of training and skill to use well, the crossbow could be used by anyone with minimal training and still achieve a fair result.

No, Denis, the idea was to keep guns away from lunatics! Michael Ryan, Thomas Hamilton and Derrick Bird were all law-abiding citizens up until the day they went on double-figure killing sprees, just as how every perpetrator of a mass shooting in the US is a law abiding citizen up until the moment they snap and kill everyone in their school/college/office building.

Keystone Science I made your taser you made with it that’s how I got here

Keystone Science stun gun*

I am aware of all of this but I am not in the UK, I'm in Sweden and then it falls under the knifelaw. But the thing is at the moment there is a crimespree in my area and I have weapons, knives and etc but if you used one of them on a person no matter what it'd be assault. Same if you used the taser on them, but the thing is that no criminal is stupid enough to file a report on your for using a taser. With a knife or if you shoot them then it will be obvious you have done something towards them. If I use a taser however just to scare them away, it leaves no mark, they run away and I protect my home. If they even did decide to report that I have an ilegall taser in my home it would be the most retarded thing you could do because then they are revealing that they were the thieves that have stolen from over 50 homes in the last year. So if I buy this it is to be at home at all times and mostly for scare tactics, if I end up stunning them I will of course call the police but I will remove the taser from my household and there will be zero evidence and I will have caught a criminal, the judges are really nice here and will say I did what I had to do. And considering I stopped future thievering I won't get any fines which I would have gotten. But then again, I could might aswell just use my metal bat I keep next to my door, got a set of gloves and baseballs there so I could get away with that aswell.

@@TheFlacker99 i've got a tennis racket electric swatter and its high voltage generator it pretty vicious, makes huge bangs and blows the flies to tiny bits 😁

It is the same guts, just less the hv induction coil itself.

@@andygozzo72 Those are only 400V but rather high current due to an capacitor across the transformer output

@@DerH0ns These modules also have capacitors, not one but 3 across the high voltage terminals. The voltage on on fly zappers can be anywhere from 400v to 2500v. The distance across the mesh will vary according to the voltage. If you current limit this module, you can get lower voltage levels easily. The change which you need to make is to put additional capacitor with across the high voltage terminals with much smaller bleed resistor to prevent the fast discharge. The capacitors inside this module have 1.5mega ohm resistor as a bleeder so it discharges it within half a second or less. Now all you need to do is order 3 mesh, top and bottom one should have large hole size to allow easy mosquito entry and the one in between on should be small enough to not allow any mosquito to pass through. I used mesh size 5 for top and bottom and mesh size 40 for the middle layer. Now, find out which one is the ground or negative on this module by putting the terminals in the water, whichever terminal has bubbles surrounding it is your negative terminal. Connect negative terminal to the middle mesh and outer two meshes to the postive one and there you go! Use a push button to charge the capacitors and discharge it on the target, the one I made lacks the bleed resistor for longer operation time after charge. I forgot, I used single 18650 cell with 1 ohm resistor (to current limit) the module and output voltage and my mesh are 4mm apart. Keep in mind without the resistor, if you keep your modules button pressed your module will burn due to overcurrent. I've made another top level comment on this video which explains why this happens.

How are things going, Stanislav? Discovered anything interesting in the time since your last post?

It is difficult, and it's hard to choose a way of measuring it that is satisfactory.

My Ingroup Idol Did Nothing Wrong No, and neither is the sun. Which is why we all go to Spain during the summer.

a bill banning fire is in the next session of parliament. i have noticed a trend towards this over the last few years. christingle a local custom involving candles and small children. have banned real candles in favour of the artificial ones on the grounds that the little sods may set fire to each others hair. i miss the screaming as they drip hot wax over there hands, or each other.

Funny you should say that but in some places it is due to pollution control and smokeless zones you cannot have garden fires and where i live you are not allowed a real fire only gas or electric heating - and if the kids build a bonfire the fire brigade either take it away or put it out - Grrrrrrrrrrrr

Everything is banned here.

@@richardsandwell2285 Yup, everything is banned, even having a life these days is banned haha... And soon Article 13 is going to make KZfaq practically banned lol... Guessing all you could say is FUCKING HELL!! 🤣🤣

Those were not dents.. that was metal vaporizing.

Artwertable As the length of the arc goes up,, the voltage goes up. This is due to the colapsing magnetic field. And this is why we were told not to stop a lawn mower by pulling the spark plug wire. And that is why they put a shorting strap at the end of the spark plug. ( back in the day ) When the electrical path is broken, the voltage goes up to the point that the current finds a path inside the curcuitry. And often times that is inside the coil itself. Once a carbon track is made, the coil is broken, shot, kaput, fried, no good.ect... Hope this helps,,,, ;-)

so if I put the output wires close together and make the arc smaller like bigclive demonstrated in the vid , they will last longer? so a shorter arc will protect the circuit more? ( sorry I'm a noob to electronics I want to use these for a project and need the module to last more than 5 minutes).

So willy should of said: As the voltage goes up, the length of the arc goes up? all I want to know is if I shorten the length of the arc will this reduce the chance of damaging the module? as this will lessen resistance so the current doesn't find its way into the module to damage it? (if that makes sense)

@@fluffyhead6377 Yes, it will help protect it. Basically if the unit makes a continuous arc when it is running, it is a happy bunny. If however the output leads are too far apart, the voltage can rise too much (no load) and it will wreck the module. Played around with a couple of these modules and they do NOT survive even a few seconds at full input voltage and output leads too far apart.

@Yuck Foutube I think you are a bit out there - possibly just missed out a decimal point? If this was correct, then the 40-60KW from the back of an old colour CRT type TV should arc around 700mm In reality it will strike an arc about 2 - 4 cm (give or take). Sure, once the air is ionized, you can "pull it" much further. DC will also allow for a longer arc as it doesn't extinguish twice per cycle. Also, take into account that many 250v mains rated switches only have a contact separation of a couple of mm. 1KV rated switchgear typically has a contact gap of about 6mm - and that is to ensure there is ZERO chance of arc over.

All it took was alcohol.

If you touched it to your leg would you fall over.

If it was my middle leg then yes.

PIXscotland I admit I didn't expect to see it again so soon.

"If you touched it to your leg would you fall over." - depends how much he drank.

yes, cds draw too much current and the main driver tranny pops, the cd is effectively a short although for some reason, they cause more damage than actually shorting the leads...maybe because directly shorting the leads isnt fun and we only do it for a fraction of a second, not 10s of a seconds

Drop a message here too if you remember please.

Please make a video and post the link here. I won't remember your channel name.

Simon Tay Haha, it doesn't exactly roll of the tongue does it.

Firecul42 ditto, I'd like a message

I was thinking more along the like of one lead being attached to the metal of the car and another lead being attached to the ground. "Don't touch my car..." "Well, I *warned* you..."

Grumpy OldMan if you think that will work you havnt finished the video yet :)

Danielle Harris I thought similar with hasp on shed with a PIR or radar sensor to switch it on if anyone was around. You still need a spark gap as the will burn out also only rated for around 30 sec bursts. Think it would be illegal though.

the charge would the pass through their heart which could kill them

That WALL. Just a Line in the sand & This.

I like the idea, but you'd need some way to trigger it only when a squirrel is present. Otherwise, the generator will probably burn out. Even if it doesn't, the constant arcing would be annoying. How about a long tube that fits over the bird feeder pole; two bare wires spiral in parallel down the tube; the squirrel's weight on the tube triggers a power switch...

Better off with an electric fence controller. I have a bird feeder on a wooden post with two leads spiraled around it from the controller. You need a + lead and ground lead for the squirrel to ground out. Birds never land on the post so they are safe. You can tell how much the squirrels love it by the way they ricochet about the yard while running away.

MrCivildefense have a weight activated switch. Should work.

haha they're tiny! it'll probably kill them not stimulate their nerves!

Best not a 9v if you don't know if it can handle it, start with 3 and work your way up.

Use the 5V output from an ATX power supply. Easily capable of more than enough current to drive this.

try a power bank. But keep in mind theses zappers draw currents far in excess of 1.5A.

I would not recommend using electronic power supplies to run these, they take awul pulse loads and shoot back terrible voltages and noise all over the shop. Batteries don't care as much.

MyBigThing2010 the other thing with using a mains power supply is even though it may output 5v it is likely to be referenced to mains. Remember not long back a girl dropped her mobile in the bath which was only connected by a USB lead.

Finland?

my biggest shock ive had from my projects was a real 400kv, over 200mm spark gap.

Now thats a proper shock. you are lucky to still be alive.

Touch the output of a TV flyback and you end up across the room and probably dead. I fixed a TV a while back and the high voltage horizontal deflection transistor had over 600V DC on its collector pin. I took extra special care not to touch it.

The latest trend across "fly over country" where I live, is an end to the requirement to pass some sort of test, or background check before you can carry your firearm concealed, locked and loaded! North Dakota passed the law a couple of years ago, in South Dakota (where I have my concealed carry permit) the bill is setting on our very conservative Governor's desk awaiting her signature, is should come tomorrow. It is called by those who are trying to get this passed nation wide, the "Constitutional Carry Law. They are in hopes to get the law changed till it is the law of the land, and any man, or woman over the age of 21 can legally carry a loaded firearm on their person, in their cars, and of course in their homes. It should prove to be a good thing, in States that have had this law for many years, a sever drop in crime has been noted, especially in burglary, home invasion and car-jacking incidents. What criminal in their right mind would try to car-jack from someone who has the legal right, and ability to carry a loaded gun. Many of the States also have the "Stand your Ground" laws, so have no legal responsibility to run away from a fight when crime comes their way. I am sure these laws stand no chance in the coast areas of our nation, where liberal gather and wring their hands at the approach of freedom and personal responsibility, and that is where these slaughters that happen in the schools and such usually happen. Sure there was the one in Vegas, but that is an entirely different world from the rest of the US, and with all the people we have here, such shit is bound to happen from time to time, but overall we are a pretty much law abiding bunch, here in fly over country, where the sheriff can be 100 miles away, the cops 40 miles away, and the criminal at your window. We take care of our own, and our neighbors, sometimes it takes a handgun, sometimes it take an AR-15 but in the end, we do what must be done, when the shit hits the fan.

It's not illegal to defend yourself. And at least if these are illegal, it keeps them out of the hands of the people who want to stab and rob you. You can get hold of these on the black market but they're very rare. I vaguely know, or have known, the sort of people who might be able to get this sort of thing. But nobody's ever actually shown me one. So the ban is pretty effective. The thing about carrying a weapon is, you have to be sure your assailant can't take it off you. Cos then you're double-fucked, you've just armed the bloke, and he's incredibly pissed off because you tried to electrocute him. It's not like Arnie films where you make a sarky remark and he fucks off crying. The best defence is a good pair of running shoes.

But its not legal to get stabbed to death or robbed in your own home....

@@user-yw8sr3uj1w Well I'm sure the person who was stabbed to death will be thrilled to hear that.

i thought that at first, but there would be no point. fast recovery is more important in this case .there is no shortage of voltage which is where schottkys would be better.

UK rating system I believe, like the US's E, T, M, AO, etc
