Ok well I noticed that while a disposible camera works great as a stun gun it isn't as easy to operate. My point is if you were really going to use it to shock someone then it doesn't work that well since you have to have the wires touch while it touches the person. I'm not sure if someone has done this before but I figured I'd post it.

The picture should be pretty self explanitory but heres how it works. You would attach the wires that come out of the flash on to two peices of metal. You could use whatever you want as long as it conducts the electricity. Then on one of the tips you would attach a strip of sheet metal and make sure it has contact with the metal piece. then just bend it up a little so it doesn't touch the other piece of metal. This part would be optional but it would work better if you did it. Then just take a spring from whatever (you could use a pen) and attach it to the camera so it is touching the sheet metal. Then when you push the camera at someone it pushes down the strip of sheet metal and makes contact with the other piece of metal which sends electricity through the metal and shocks the person. It pretty much works just as easily as a stun gun except looks a little different. I hope this helped some of you but I don't want to make it easier for you to shock unwilling people so just please don't mess around with it.

The flash wires are already connected straight across the capacitor. Just press it to them and they should get a 300V shock. Not enough for anything more than an unpleasant zap really.

I'm just showing an easier way to shock someone because usually you have to touch the 2 wires together.

I haven't actually tried this yet but does anyone know if it would work? I plan on trying it later tonight once I get a bunch of cameras from eckerd.

I can shock myself with one with out having to touch the two wires together. It's not hard - the current will flow across the skin quite easily at that voltage.
