Ok Mike, I've built one that can give you a nasty zap. 3 main parts to it... first, build or find a circuit for an oscillator. 2 complemtary transistors hooked up together with a capacitor and potentiometer should do it <forgot the name for that kind of set up>. Next, feed the output into a small audio transformer so it steps up the voltage. then on the end of that have a row of capacitors and diodes for a voltage multiplier. To get maximum output, tune the potentiometer. Just do some research and you should be able to get decent voltage. Hope this helps... MINE

Any info will be greatly appreciated. There was an article in the October '81 issue of Radio Electronics that showed how to build a "Simple Tesla Coil" from a flyback transformer and a couple of 2N3055's, that might be what you're looking for. -- Richard Foulk richard@pegasus.com

This sounds like a neat project. I would like to know about this, too. Does Radio Electronics sell back issues? vovut@prism.cs.orst.edu

"The Electronic Dazer", from Hands-on Electronics 11/87 seems to be exactly what you're looking for. It's a real straight forward project: basically two transistors and a simple voltage multiplier circuit. At the end of the article they have an address where you can order a kit with all the parts, etc. The part list is so small, though, I'll bet you could scrounge the parts up really easily. -- /**************************************************************************/ /* Kent Dalton * EMail: Kent.Dalton@FtCollins.NCR.COM */ /* NCR Microelectronics * CIS: 72320,3306 */ /* 2001 Danfield Ct.
