Stun Gun - Electronic Circuits Projects Diagrams Free

**ElectroMaster** · 19th July 2002, 08:06 PM

This stun gun is powered by a 9V battery. The transformer steps up the voltage to about 1800V (but with very low current). A 555 timer IC is used to generate a high-frequency output. A 1 MEG variable resistor can also be used at the output to drop the voltage, but this is optional. If you build this circuit, be careful, as it outputs a high voltage. Touching the output leads will induce a painful shock.

NOTE: Building stun guns can be very dangerous! Please use caution.

Could you please provide more details on the transformer.
Is it the output transformer used in pockect radio sets?

Thanks

could u please tell me wat u could connect to the out put of this very simple but clever circuit

zachtheterrible · 24th January 2005, 05:28 AM

your fingers :lol: :shock:

DON'T DO THAT, I WAS JUST KIDDING!

I would be curious to know whare you got a 1800 volt 1 meg pot from?
Most pots are rated at 250 volts or Less.
Typically 1/4 watt resistors are also rated at 250 volts.
Typically 1/2 watt resistors are also rated at 450 volts.

very clever but i would replace the 555 with a crystal oscillator... much easy to wire and replace. however this is a cool circuit... ciao!

Chem,

I know you're going to do a head smack (to one of us), but of course the resistors are on the 9v side.

Technically, R4 is a variable resistor rather than a potentiometer, but it's still a fair question.

hi all i just wanna sak for if i get 1800 volt in that capacitor ,what`s the imporatant efective valyue of that capacitor, what`s the difernt between low curent and high curent in out put ????????????

HI

AN OTHER SCHEME FOR HIGH POWER SUPPLY MODIFIED TO BE USED

AS STUN GUN WITH HIGH OUT PUT. TAKE A LOOK :wink:

hi

where is my attached file for the last post??????? :?:

Could you please add another information about a stun gun and its purpose.

nos_slived · 5th April 2005, 07:33 AM

There is no purpose. Hi voltage at low current=shocking pain.

do you use a breadboard to build this circuit.
