    First mosfet can be: IRFB4227. Diodes: 2CL82 5MA 30KV, White propilene capacitor probably about 0,01uF 8000VDC, the gas dischargue tube something between A7-H25X and A71-H55X... The final mosfets could be the IRFP4227 which are in TO-220 format and powerful with low gate chargue, or a more low resistance and powerful IRFB7534PBF. Zeners is OK 15V 0.5W, and resistors about 100-1K, depending of the tank circuit peak voltaje and the frecuency, in order to have as less as possible the risetime gate charge. and I personally recomend using TVS on sensitive componets. I will try the same just to have fun. Thanks Nicolas!

      Ironically, messing about with a high-voltage generator module from Amazon, I've discovered that great big enormous scary white sparks won't even set a cigarette paper on fire. You can send the spark right through it (a few CM long, decent spark) and there's not even a mark.
      My arc lighters both use a much smaller arc. It's also, interestingly, purple rather than white. I think it's lower power and higher frequency. "WEEEEEEEEEEM" rather than "SNAP! SNAP! SNAP!" Looks like there's a knack to setting stuff on fire, not every electric spark will do.

      @@greenaum Just my non-professional guess: I'm willing to bet it's not that the arc isn't hot enough to light something on fire, but maybe instead that the material you are trying to light has tiny gaps in it and the arc is so thin that it might be simply passing through without ever making direct contact. Also would bet that cigarette paper is an even better insulator than air, which would explain why the arc might prefer traveling through those tiny gaps. Maybe if the paper was wet it would cause the arc to go directly through the paper instead of the air, but then of course it would *still* not ignite due to being wet.
      I could be way off the mark here, but it feels like a hypothesis worth testing to me!

    For the how to avoid exploding the AVR question: from my experiments with automotive ignition coils. you'll wanna optically isolate the circuit to suppress the noise from traveling into the rails. however optical isolation will require power isolation too

      Regarding optical isolation, can you get phototransistors for the right speed and power? I know, technically, _all_ transistors are phototransistors. All treated silicon is light sensitive, they just put them in dark containers to keep it out, or clear ones for the labelled opto parts. I wonder how fast one of those solid-state relays can switch? Really they're just a triac in a friendly box, with the input side driving an LED that sets off the output side.
      I think speed is the important thing here, particularly switch-off speed to let the coil kick back quickly with it's back-EMF.
      The "finished" version doesn't need a computer anyway, he was just doing that to test the parameters easily. Once they're known, you can do it in analogue. Even though coding an oscillator is easier than designing one!
      How do you implement your opto isolation, Max?

      Particularly HV capacitors seem a right bugger to get hold of. Nobody sells them! I wonder if some concoction of aluminium foil and paper, wound into a spiral, would be practical? Maybe soak and pot in epoxy after. Or foil and plastic. You could even use cling film ("Saran wrap" for Americans"). Capacitance partly depends on the distance between the metal plates, closer is better. But closer also means less voltage resistance, it's easier to punch through a thin layer than a thicker one. Then there's the dielectric strength of the insulator. Simply, some materials are better, it's intrinsic to the material. Maybe TWO layers of cling film?
      Thing is the stuff is so damn staticky it's almost impossibly to work with, you want nice orderly layers, no wrinkles. A press brake of many tons wouldn't help, it'd just squash up any wrinkles and ruin the result, tearing everything. Maybe if you used thicker plastic...
      Maybe the professionals won the war on making caps decades ago... but there's just no marketplace for HV caps. I bet it's specialist suppliers with their own catalogues and high prices. Still, you can put ordinary caps in series, but you thereby lose a lot of capacitance.
      Still, paper is cheap, so is foil. Might get myself a capacitance meter. Already got a high-volage supply to test voltage tolerance. Just have the insulator hanging over past the ends of the foil so there's nowhere to arc around. Be nice if you could squash it without breaking it but prob not. Maybe epoxy would increase the dielectric strength of the paper. Maybe, I dunno, WD40 would. Or light oil? Old microwave ovens have HV caps in them, but that's well in to the "unforgiving" end of experimenting, you don't get to make any mistakes at all with them.

      @@greenaum unless you don't mind very low capacitance and efficiency, using regular aluminium foil and paper won't cut it. Seeing as capacitance is based on surface area, the trick is to use as thin as possible metal foil for the capacitor plates, kitchen aluminium foil is much too thick in that case. Commercially they use a super thin aluminium foil which is bonded to plastic, or even metalised foil which is produced by electroplating plastic foil.

    Best tip; insulate everything by single, means what can be disturbed in radius needs insulating as well as what will disturb other parts. Since Tesla energy is hard to go through glass rather than Plastic as well as air as the easiest, but electric wire is the most desired for electric as the most desired is the electric way interesting. As wires will always be desired through air. So an EMP bomb will knock out wires rather than the air. If there's no wire the desired will be water until it's air.

    Hi Nicolas!
    I used high voltage generators (aka stun gun modules) in my art project ( ua-cam.com/video/a3Wc-ahGum0/v-deo.html ) controlled by an esp32. During the R&D phase, I ran into the same problems you demonstrated in your video of controlling your stun gun with an arduino. I worked around this by using the esp32 to control a relay that switches an galvanically isolated isolated power supply. Specifically, I used the Meanwell SKA15B-05. Happy to share more if you're curious.

      good you understand the whole process is pretty redundant considering he didn't say the output,,, meaning its shaky at best at what its suppose to do. most tasers use high amperage batteries like the 18650

    Great video, thank you. For shielding you need a metal foil of very high magnetic permeability, meaning, MuMetal. The metal shield on the old oscilloscope tube are just that. Believe me, this thing works. All the old oscilloscopes use it.

    Current that goes out has to come back. So, it's best to include the positive rail, with the negative rail directly on the other side of the PCB from the positive rail. Otherwise, you can end up making a big loop that will induce massive currents in other parts of the circuit.
    It may seem like the current will return by the shortest possible path. This is only true at very low frequencies and DC. But as you know, pulses are AC. And it doesn't take very much frequency before the return current starts trying to follow the outgoing current as much as possible. There are some excellent videos on UA-cam about this topic.

    When I was a teen, I took apart a disposable Kodak camera. While pryingnthe plastic away from the circuit board, I wedged my middle knuckle against the circuit board, and got the ABSOLUTE WORST electric shock of my life!!!
    I had no idea what had happened, as I just like taking things apart to see how they worked...
    Cut to 20 years later, I'm scrolling through UA-cam and see, "How to turn a disposable camera into a stun gun"!!!
    It felt good to finally know WHY I got that shock as a teen. When it happened, let's just say I couldn't exactly search the internet.

    Hi Nicolas. You made a really good job there. Congratulations.
    I think the problem with Arduino nano are the cables (also the proximity of power traces in your board), but cables are definitely a huge problem, if you try with Arduino nano soldered in the main board I think that could work properly.
    Could you send me the measure of output waveform? If so, do this with a 600 ohms power resistor at output (between electrodes), this should make voltage drop to under 7000V.
    Thank you in advance, and again... Well done.

    Great work man ! impressed !! Can you shield the NANO in grounded aluminium foil ? or copper shield . Paper on the inside and aluminium on the outside, to ground . Faraday cage . Very nice to insulate each layer, then its easier to get tidy layers and no x crossing . Hey, cotton drenched in oil . Volts per turn on the coil surface . By insulating just in "in and out" wire heavily, also reduce the risk of internal arcing . I avoid using PVC cause it has a very low melting point .

    hi mate. recently i discovered a way to dramatically reduce the input current and double the spark energy with those little 15kv arc lighter modules.
    simply adding a tank circuit between pos and the drive coil and testing different film caps in parallel with a 44 mh choke coil,(the tank), i’ve had a fet and a tip 122 as single side switches running at 120 and 350 ma respectively, both at 11.5v and 4 mm spark gap with the fet and 8 mm with the tip. not sure how critical but both of these devices have the built in diode from C-E and the feedback coil doesn’t centre tap with the drive it’s separate.
    also monitoring the d.c. volts in a cap across a fwbr hooked up to other side of the inductor ( its a dual mode 2 coil choke). looks like a way to optimise the cap across the choke for best tune. i’ve seen 27 volts in that cap with 11.5 input.
    i just started posting videos and details on youtube.
