Blowgun and Ammo

Step 4 Zappy ammo

High voltage ammo has never been so simple and fun.

Parts:

1. Photoflash capacitor. The most important thing about it is that it is small enough to fit in the tube. I forget what type of disposable camera I harvested the one I am using from. So the only thing I can suggest is just to test out a range of capacitors, and when you find one that fits perfectly see if the maker sells them in bulk.
2. The tazer glove http://www.instructables.com/id/ESJUFG9VBJEPUCHSMG/ (the web of danger continues) would greatly simplify this, but if your too lazy to make one all you really need is a disposable camera with exposed charge leads.
3. 2 metal pins
4. Soldering iron and solder

Process:

Solder the 2 pins onto the leads from the capacitor. Put some electrical tape around the base to provent accidental bridging. Because the capacitor is already wide enough to block most of the air behind it, just put a small piece of electrical tape on the back, this not only traps extra air, but prevents you from being shocked if you accidentally breath in, although if you are dumb enough to breathe in you deserve to be shocked.
Now you may be asking yourself "isnt putting a high voltage capacitor inside a metal tube, and then inserting that tube in my mouth extremely dangerous?" The answer is yes. However to minimize the chance that the leads will be bridged when the capacitor is flying through the tube, place a piece of electrical tape over the needles and bend it down both sides, so it completely coveres all parts of the needle. Push the 2 points just slightly through the tip of the electrical tape. You may not even need to push them through depending on how hard you can blow. The safest thing to do would to be to have the tips of the pins covered, and then driven through the tape and into the target by the force of the impact.

could you just get a capasator and charge it with a battery some how? if u can then how would you do it?

[djzadjza]

just touch the capacitor leads to a battery of your choice...

That works in theory, but he'd need a 330v battery. lol

Hey dude, instead of using the taser glove or the camera w/ exposed leads,couldnt you stick it into a electrical outlet and take it out right away? my dad used to buy capacitors from radioshack, and do that. then he tossed it to somebody. They dropped it really fast. Just wondering, he told me about the outlet thingy. Would it work?

No it probably wouldnt because that is some serious shit your sticking a small thing into, i think it might make the capacitor even explode or somtinbut any way NO DO NEVER TRY THIS.

Tetranite i think you and me think alike in ways, I have always thought about capacitor ammo but never knew how to implimant it, i think the police should make some realllly high voltage, semi low - medium amp capacitors that have something like a really sharp fish hook, cheaper ammo than a taser gun and its cool!

[Bondo_Red]

not an electrician but generally sticking random electric components into a outlet is bad

[Neodudeman]

That crap Hurts. Have you ever been shocked?

[Tetranitrate]

Many many times.
