I have made a new addition to the WCR Potato Cannon: a 2.8 million volt stun gun ignition with a 6 LED super bright light. I just finished it tonight! I'll get better pics up when daylight comes - these were taken with my cellphone camera. I went through 2 stun guns...I ended up blowing up the first one... :pardon:
Feature list includes:
- propane powered
- computer fan air/gas mixer
- 2.8 million volt ignition
- rechargeable batteries - custom socket to recharge
- lighted switches for the light and the "Master Arm" switch
- Red LED to show when computer fan is spinning
- 6 LED super bright light
- PSI gauge for proper fuel pressure
- new paintjob with 3M reflective flakes for night time fun
- easy breach load
- breaks down into 3 parts for easy carry on the FJ to the rallies

I never got shocked by the stun gun - but I did get "bit" by 120 line voltage from a household socket while assembling...all the way up my left arm. :wacko3:
Little did I realize that the tip of a soldering iron actually carries a current from the outlet it is plugged into. I happened to be in the VERY rare situation to find this out. I was soldering a connection on the plug I made in the housing to recharge the stun gun's batteries. I had it plugged in and charging the stun gun's batteries at the same time - and it was plugged into the same power strip that the soldering iron was plugged into. Big mistake! VERY big POW!!! The spark was so bright I was halfway blind for 10 minutes. I thought the tip of a soldering iron was just heated...I did not know it actually has voltage going to it.... :yes:
The computer fan is in the base of the main chamber...you can see the red wire going to it from the box in pic #2.

If I knew you were going to almost kill yourself I would have kept the cannon until the WCR.... or at least been there to see you shock yourself :rofl:

Are you and Klavdy going for the shocking stories of the year award Marsh........I think his carries a bit more weight voltage wise, but yours is a good attempt!
