  • In this video I show you how to make a 3,000 volt taser from a fly zapper. Once I remove the high voltage generator I teach a little bit about dielectric breakdown and why pointy surfaces can breakdown air easier than curved surfaces. I only get shocked a few times throughout the process! I show you the plasma that forms and also talk about what a plasma actually is. Then at the end I make my taser and even shock myself with it. Then I show it shocking an apple in order to spare my arm. By the end of it I was shocked 3-4 times and my whole body hurt!

    If you film the plasma arc on a dark background, it shows up better for demonstrations. Just thought that might be useful because your videos are awesome and I suspect you’ll make more related to plasma 😊🙌📚

    you can measure the voltage by taking some resistors to divide the voltage.Then you can mesure the voltage at one of the resistors and calculate the voltage of your fly trap.(you should know the inner resistance of your voltmeter.)

    Hi ActionLab Vlogs.
    I was wondering if you added a few super capacitor's to the circuit, would you think that it would make the voltage go higher dependant on the capacitors.
    Brilliant videos, love watching you do your experiments.

    1$ For a double 18650 battery holder.
    I already had some 18650s, good thing about those, they are rechargeable, rated at 3.7V each 7.4V is just fine.

    Since you didn't solder together a voltage muliplier with ceramic capacitors, and diodes, so you can't get a big arc that can jump a larger gap. 10,000-40,000 volts is enough high voltage for me.

  • @Lunartrek
    @Lunartrek 7 років тому +4

    Most store-bought tasers run in the 100kv's region.
    Anyway, this is a lot more effective if you remove the bleeder resistor accross the tank cap at the end of the circuit so it will hold a charge even after the button is released. Personally, I'd just remove the whole HV DC end of the circuit and build my own voltage multiplier and solder that to the HV AC end of the mini transformer, but then it isn't as simple as this one is.
