Hi Ludic Science, I am building a rat zapper that will utilizing your schematic and adding a PIR sensor switch at the 220V source plus an MCB as fuse. One question, If NEGATIVE coil terminal and the HIGH VOLTAGE terminal successfully zap a rat and the rat will stay there, do you thing the MCB fuse will trip down (due to shortage in the circuit)? I want the circuit to be automatically ON when PIR sensor catch a move, so it can zap multiple time per setup. Currently I am using mosquito zapper part to electrify the zapper, but I need to use 220v to 3.7V DC stepdown and currently it works great with small mouse. I want to build a little bigger zapper that will kill bigger rodent for continuous use. The circuit is use in our own property with enough security inside a barn.
+Kibs XX that is a copper wire coming out of the top (secondary tower) this acts as a protector from it arcing to the primary terminals it is called a secondary tower this has a screw in the bottom of the tower that allows you to connect to. that is what arcs to the primary terminals
They don't need to be insulated. When cars used these coils, the terminals were not insulated; only the wires themselves need to be insulated of course.
Without going into physics, voltage and frequency aren't really dependent upon each other. Voltage is the amount of energy (in very basic terms); frequency is how often that energy is expended or used. You can have 100,000 volts pulsed 1x per year (frequency) or 100,000 volts at 100,000x per second.
Is the output from the ignition coil the same 50 or 60 Hz as the AC power from the output? Or at a different frequency depending on the coil and capacitor, or dimmer?
@@davidbee3704 No. the dimmer works by chopping the waveform, making it look like a ramp up without its down ramp acting as a disconnected circuit and the capacitor acts as a resistor with AC due to capacitive impedance.
+Ludic Science Can I use a fan speed regulator instead of dimmer? I can't find 2MFD capacitor anywhere in my town, can I use an electrolytic type one with 250VAC and 10MFD?
cooking oil works well, you can also use mineral oil that is transparent (baby oil). Another option is to make a mix of vaseline and paraffin (50-50) and put it in the parts that make the arc
It won´t work, you need AC current for this to work. You can use 240 VAC with a capacitor less than 1 uF and voltage rating 400v or more. But of course be careful, 240 vAC from mains is serious stuff.
+Ludic Science I just made it, I used 1MFD 400V capacitor in line with electronic fan speed controller. I got zapped, because I distanced the output terminal too far. Good that I added a bell switch to activate the circuit, it stopped as soon as I got zapped. Going to make a EMP with it now.
Hello , thanks for this video, I have a question about the oil used in the coil ignition, is it the PCB or ASKAREL oil? what about Chinese coil ignition? thanks
How do you melt the paraffin & Vaseline together? Also where did you get & what is the voltage of the capacitors you are using that have a red stripe on them? Thank you.
Doesn't the capacitor give the coil resonance at some high frequency, well above 50/60 hz.? Is anyone sure this circuit is still firing the coil secondary at 50 or 60hz.?
Nice job. I think that your warning implies that it's only the high voltage that is dangerous. Any part of this circuit is capable of delivering a fatal shock with direct contact, primary or HV winding. At least 90ma on the primary and very close to that on the secondary on direct contact.
from 3:40 towards the end can you pls provide listing of items and provide a schematic diagram. thank you bro

my goal comparing emp effect and distance from magnetron and high voltage.
1kw magnetron showing distance over ignition coil in effecting calculator (reset) and light bulbs.
did someone try it ? did i do something wrong ?
I thought that the breakdown voltage for air is 30kV and that ignition coils are around 15-20kV, which would make sense with your 5mm arc length ?
i made with a motorcycle ignition coil and a ceiling fan regulator... but the Arc is small.... may i know why? ....i saw another video and the spark was a little bit bigger there
ceiling fan regulator may be the culprit
+Ludic Science may i know why?
This circuit needs an SCR, that comes inside the dimmer, maybe your fan regulator uses other type of circuit.
I can only run mine for a few seconds before the coil gets too hot. Already had one coil blow up. Sprayed oil all over my shop. I'm using the exact same set-up. What am I doing wrong ?
Hi Ludic
Would I get away with 20kv capacitors for the multiplier?.
I built one myself a while ago, with a capacitor from a microwave. Mine would throw out 30kv or so.
Very dangerous, and amazing. Good video!
