Yea dengerus if your stupid and stick your fingers around wen there charged.
I once acsidetaly was toching the output wen i trigerd the SCR and it only stung a litle bit.That was 100V.My hands ware dry so codnt coduct much.If they ware wet i wod cetarnly get a painful shock.
There is a way by stacking a lot of car baterys in sersis to get an high volatge.This is very dengerus if you short it becose an cap will only make an pulse of high curent but a car batery will make continues high curent that can make wires realy realy realy hot and melt them.
Whith an coligun you have to have high volatge to get enugh curent trough the coil (Ohoms law)
