hello,
I took apart a stun gun (100,000v) and I was wondering if the coil
in there was a Tesla coil? How can they take a 9v battery and produce a
spark big enough to jump 2 inches? And I noticed they had a simple spark gap
arrangement also set up in there.The instructions say to only run it for
about three seconds or it will burn up. Is there a way to maybe pulse the
switch to make it run continuosly? If anybody could help I'd sure be very
appreciative. Thanks a lot.
