Hero999, i apriciate your answers. My huge questions because i'm really obsessed with high voltage project. Being able to get 800V from just 2.4volt source ( 2 AA Nimh battery) is my dreams comes true. Please, answers my questions above to help me build this project
stupid simple circuit? So, audioguru can you show better and "clever" stun gun? Is it possible to add some voltage multipliers at the secondary transformer used here?
This circuit uses a tiny transformer from an old portable radio. It is only about 50mW max so its output current is only about 62.5uA which is next to nothing.
Adding a voltage multiplier would reduce the current to much less.
I think a real powerful circuit has been posted in this topic.
So, audioguru, stop laughing and show better schematic! Seem you're just adding total post. How about CW (voltage multiplier)? Can it added at the output of the transformer?
The wimpy circuit doesn't produce any current. Adding a voltage multiplier would overload it and reduce its tiny output current even more.
I think there are powerful high voltage generators in this thread.
The ignition system on a car makes a pretty powerful spark.
The transformer is too small. Its small size means it has high resistance which causes low current. The transformer will probably arc because it is so small.
