Make a Shock Flashlight!

Heres a really fun gadget you can build! A Shock Flashlight!

It will give your victims a powerful but harmless shock!

---

With my creation of the How to build the World's Smallest Electronic Shocker, it is so small that I can fit it into a flashlight, and use it to give people fun shocking pranks!

This is going to be so fun to shock people with it, and I can guaranteed you to get laughs!!!

So lets build this fun device!

Also for the English people that may not know, a flashlight is same thing as a torch.
And please note that I am only 15 years old and I am not very good at grammar so if you find some parts of the instructable confusing, please let me know and I will try fix it.

Step 1 Get the things!!

All right, lets get started!
You will need...

• A flashlight (torch).
• A very small shocker (you can build one, click here!).
• Tape (I used electric tape).
• Some wires.
• Aluminum tape.

And the tools...

• Wire strippers.
• Wire cutters.
• Soldering iron with solder.
• Hot glue gun with glue sticks.
• Drill gun with a small drill bit.

 I remember when I was 4 I was playing around with a torch and I electrocuted my finger with a 24-volt battery. It made some nodules. Man that as fun and hurt.

Haha!

i did something like this, but i used a boxy metal oldfashoned flashlight, i converted it to the led technology and added a 300v shocker conected to a 150uf capacitor, but i'm not sure if it's too dangerous for using in animals or people, do you know if the capacitor is too big?

When I was in high school a friend of mine build a shock box. I don't know how it was made but I do remember him saying it had a mercury switch in it? I was the life of the party! I remember it had a little lightbulb in it that had mercury and was placed in a box wrapped in tin foil. When you shook it, it gave you a little shock. It was funny placing it under the tree Xmas morning and watch the kids shake the presents. Do you know what this could be?

[lasermaster3531]

I think he had a 120 volt to 9 volt step up or down transformer and the mercury switch pulsed the nine volt battery through that side to make the other side produce 120 volts and shock you.

[TheDeviant13]

what he means by a mercury switch is a little glass tube with a drop of mercury in it and two wires at one end and the mercury completes the circuit

[ElectricMan1]

Does this burn you? Is it safe to short circut the -450 and +"ground" wire?

[Madrias357]

I got an idea: what if you were to make it so that there was a conductively painted layer where your fingers would grip the flashlight, and the shocker pad in the button/switch?

i might make a modifide one for my locker that ought to teach those morons who are butterflying my locker : ) but make it so i have a neodidim magnet turn it off so i can open my locker with out geting shocked

[hirenpanchal47]

I made it , & get Shock But i gave to one person he touch to torch but he Did not get Shock , !!!!!!!

[Plasmana]

Thats odd, maybe the wire broke off...

So I tried out Plasmana's torch. One thing to consider is how to make the tape less shiny and noticable. Perhaps a conductive, yet dimming coating exists to keep that "beat up flashlight" look.

[Plasmana]

Yeah, I am going to try make some conductive paint using the information from this instructable.

[Kaelessin]

Haha! I'm going camping with a bunch of people this weekend and this will prove invaluable let me tell you! cool idea!

[Plasmana]

Hahaha! Good luck shocking people!
