There seems to be alot of interest in making home made stun guns these days. Some things need to be said before we go any farther. Home made stun guns like any home made device could be hazardous! Home made devices are fun to build and play with, but use at your own riskI. If you doubt your skills, or need some thing more powerful and dependable, click on a link and have a look around
There is a huge difference between a Stun Gun and a Taser, a stun gun is a contact weapon and a taser fires darts attached to wires. We are Talking about a Stun Gun Here. If you want to learn more about a Taser but. If you are still wanting to build your own stun gun than lets get started.
Assembly of a home made stun gun
The main piece of equioment needed is a disposable camera, make sure it is one with a flash.
#1- carefully open the casing of the camera, but be careful not to damage anything in the process.
#2-Take out the battery to prevent being shocked in case of accidental discharge.
#3-You will need paper clips, that will need to be shortened and attached to each end of the Capacitor. These will act as the wires through which the shock will be emitted.
#4-Put the Battery back in ensuring that you don't touch the wires after it's back in.
#5-Press the flash button on the camera to charge and than use a screw driver to see the results.
essentually the main part of this project is adding wires ( in the form of paper clips ) to each end of the Capacitor.
There really isn't much more to it!
Stun Gun Schematics
This is diagram #1 of a working Stun Gun. You will have to be able to understand electrical circuit diagrams.
Self Made Stun Gun Electrical Diagram
This is another Stun Gun circuit diagram althoe a bit more complex. You will need the ability to read and understand electrical circuit diagrams to assemble a stun gun from these drawings.
Stun Gun Electronics Number Three
This is an even more complex drawing and will require you to have a good understanding of electronics and electrical diagrams to assemble. It should prove to be a challanging project for every one except someone in the Electronics field.
The Reality of self built Stun Guns
Just being able and willing to build a home made Stun Gun doesn't really mean that you actuaslly should.
People that construct home made stun guns have a tendency to want to test them on friends or family. Stun Guns home made or not are not toys and should never be treated as such.
There have been instances of home made stun guns blowing up in peoples hands and medical complications from being burned or shocked.
There is no way of telling what will happen with a home made device of this kind. Caution should always be first and the number one thought should be,
Should I even build the damb thing at all.
Well thats not for me to answer, because if you are determined you would have just found the information your self any way.
