i dont think im a pro at this or anything, but i am quite handy with the camera's, although i only found out that you can make the spark jump a few days ago http://www.spudfiles.com/Combustion_Cannons/HVC1.php yes on this very site. all i was doing before was shorting out the capacitor as more of a taser than a combustion trigger. if you have any problems email me at either xenion@gmail.com or ur_fat_and_not_like_the_kidz_say@hotmail.com . Right now i am thinking about "souping" one up by ripping out capacitors from other cameras as well as batteries and led's, and adding them to one circut board. I figure ill have to rip out the ohmic resistors too. It will be one h*ll of a combustion trigger.

If anyone can give ME any tips too on "souping" it up, it would be greatly appreaceated

THX!

Because some people use them to ignite their spudguns... usually when they can't get a stungun.

A camra flash is about 300 volts, and the spark gap is around 3/4 of a millimetre, I tried to use a camra but it is too hard to get the gap right

I'f you add a coil to it, you can transform it up to 100,000 Volts (depending of the coil)
