There is no need to yell at us. ;)

You will want to pull out the charge circuit from the camera if you want to drive the light. Like Rick said its a camera flash and wasn't designed to stay on all the time.

It's a flash light so it won't light all the time - only in very brief flashes - You will need a high voltage source - usually a charged capacitor and trigger voltage - the 3rd wire.

You can get a bad shock from flash guns.
