Hello,
I would like to build a coilgun for a nice rewarding project :wink:
I have made a "super simple mini version" in 10 min. that has only a photoflash capacitor and a coil.
When runing small "pre-tests" I have noticed a huge spark blast from the point were I touch the photoflash capatitor and the coil.
I need a switch that could stop this huge spark from happening, it is waisting elecricity right?
I have a radioshack close to my house
If anyone can help me please do
thanks,
George![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
