The high-voltage ignition module is used for self-defense and the manufacture of modern technology. Knowing the sequence of work, you can make such a device with your own hands. How to do this and where you can find finished products, this article will tell.
Description
A high-voltage module is a unit with 4 wires, 2 of which are needed to connect power. As you can see, nothing complicated.
If you need a high-voltage module, you can purchase it in an online store or make it yourself. The finished device runs on finger-type lithium batteries from 3.6 to 6 volts at the input. At the output, a power of 400 volts can be issued.
The high voltage generator has 4 wires. To check the quality of the purchase, you can take a 3.7-volt lithium-ion battery module. According to the parameters between the electrodes a spark should fly up to 2 cm.
Such work must be done especially carefully. Separate the wires of the high voltage module and connect them to the battery. When power is applied, a sound effect in the form of a whistle is noted. A discharge will also occur, the exposure length of which is 1.5-2 cm.
How it works
Demonstration of the operation of the high-voltage converter module can be carried out using a generator. This requires power from an uninterruptible power supply of 12 volts and a lamp of 25 watts. When the wires are connected, it lights up completely.
Description of the manufacture of high voltage generators
The ability to craft helps out more than once in a lifetime. For example, good high-voltage generators are quite expensive. Moreover, they are difficult to get. But after all, a high-voltage module can be successfully made by yourself. To do this, you need a stepper motor, which can work perfectly in the generation mode.
A handle is attached directly to the shagovik shaft, rotate it and charge the phone in traveling conditions. This charge can be made with your own hands in a few minutes.
Model Improvement
There are many such inventions, but their power is not high enough. To charge the phone, you need at least 2 watts at the output of such a motor for an old model of a mobile device and at least 5 watts for a modern smartphone.
Where to get a high-voltage module with good power? Let's try to do it yourself. We will pick up a convenient rotation knob for the shagovik, we will connect all the wire leads according to the scheme. The resulting DC outputs will go to the wattmeter and to the load, which is selected for this engine and under revolutions according to the optimal parameters.
What power can be developed on a large stepper motor at a speed of 120 per minute? Let's start the experience. The wattmeter shows 0.8 W at a voltage of 6 volts and a current of 0.11–0.12 amperes. With faster rotation, the peak digit reaches 1 ampere, but this is at very fast speeds.
Therefore, such a device requires improvement. We need a converter that increases the speed 3-4 times, so that you can successfully charge the phone in the field.
For this, a collector motor is used. You can make a belt drive to this engine to increase its speed by 3 times. It will result in an installation with a pulley diameter that is 3 times larger than that installed on the stepper motor. Now such a device will rotate 3 times faster, which will allow to achieve indicators of 2–2.2 watts. In this case, the voltage is 17 volts, the current is 0.12-0.13 amperes. Such power is already more significant. If the device is mounted on a table, twisting the handle is quite simple.
The higher the speed, the more useful power the generator can give out.
Making a stun gun: preparation
Electroshock devices can be very powerful. The law allows the use of devices up to 3 watts, which are not capable of causing serious harm to health, but guarantee a fairly strong electric shock and burn.
The device diagram is as follows:
- source of power;
- boost converter;
- high voltage voltage multiplier.
You can use a conventional lithium-ion battery of compact size, better - lithium iron phosphate. It has less capacity with the same weight, and the nominal voltage is 3.2 volts versus 3.7 volts in the lithium-ion version.
Such a device has many advantages:
- With its own capacity of only 700 mA / h, this one is capable of delivering currents of 30-50 A.
- Has a service life of 10-15 years.
- Able to operate at temperatures up to -30 degrees without loss of capacity and other negative consequences.
- It is environmentally friendly, safe, does not swell and does not explode.
- Losing capacity is much slower.
- Not so sensitive to the parameters of the charger, can be charged with high currents without overheating.
For the converter, you can use a ready-made model from China. Or make it with your own hands. The most important thing in such a device is a transformer. It can be taken from a standby source of an inoperative computer power supply. It is desirable that it be of an elongated type, which will facilitate the winding process.
Putting the device together
The transformer must be disassembled, remove the core and heat it with a blowtorch for 5-10 minutes. The glue structure will weaken, and it will be easier for the halves to separate.
There is a gap inside. Removing halves in the core is replaced by the winding stage of all factory windings, only the surface of the bare frame remains.
Rules for performing winding movements
The high voltage module for the stun gun requires that the primary type of transformer winding be wound. The wire length of 0.5 mm is folded in half. The optimum diameter is from 0.4 to 0.7 mm. You will need to wind at least 8 turns and bring the other end of the wires out.
We isolate the wound winding with several layers of fluoroplastic or transparent tape. To a thin occasion, the thickness of which is not more than 0.05 mm, a piece of a stranded wire placed in a thick insulation is soldered.
We isolate the places where the soldering was done using heat shrink. We withdraw the wire and fix it with hot glue so as not to accidentally cut it off during the winding process.
We wind the primary winding, 100-120 turns, alternating it with several layers of insulation. By its principle, winding is simple: a row - from left to right, second - from right to left, with isolation between them. So repeat 10 to 12 times.
After the winding is done, the wires are cut off, multicore high-voltage wires and heat shrink solder to them. All are fixed by means of several layers with transparent adhesive tape and a transformer is assembled.
If you do not want to take turns for so long, you can purchase ready-made modules in Chinese online stores at an affordable price or make a high-voltage module yourself.
Device test
The next part of the voltage multiplier is high-voltage diodes and capacitors, which can be taken from a computer power supply. Diodes are also needed high voltage type. Their voltage should be from 4 kW. Such items can also be purchased at online stores.
The case can be a box from a flashlight or a player, but always from a dielectric material: plastic, bakelite, fiberglass.
A multiplier with a high-voltage converter is recommended to be filled with an eboxite resin, molten wax or hot melt adhesive. The latter can severely deform the case if you do not place it in a container with cold water.
Electrodes can be taken from an ordinary plug. The shocker is equipped with a safety switch to protect against accidental switching on. To activate the device, it is removed from the fuse. The indicator LED lights up, then press the button.
High-voltage module - a voltage converter successfully shows operability in a stun gun. The charger is based on a microcircuit, where a voltage of 5 volts is applied to the input of the module, and a voltage of 3.6 volts is output. Such charging allows you to power the device from any USB port.
Using solder, protective arresters can be made to limit the length of the arc for the safe operation of the high-voltage converter. The shocker is ready.
Making a high-voltage module from an energy-saving lamp
And such a device can be easily made with your own hands. But where to get the high-voltage module? You can use a conventional incandescent bulb. At first we wind no more than 80 skeins. The second layer is 400-600 turns. Between each layer, do not forget to make insulation from adhesive tape.
To test the device, we will connect it through a 35 W limit light. The result was a fairly powerful high-voltage ignition module.
Product Areas
Where is the high voltage module used? Such devices are widely used for the manufacture of modern equipment, can serve as a laboratory generator of high voltage. With the help of such a device, you can build a homemade shocker, a system for igniting fuel in an injector or engine.
It can be used to provide power to a portable Geiger counter, dosimeter, and varieties of equipment requiring high voltage indicators with power, which has a small power.
The device of the microcircuit is switched on in the “Multivibrator” mode with the frequency indicators regulated depending on what the characteristics of the transformer are. A high level, which shows the current output signal flowing through the resistor and the primary winding of the transformer, is able to charge a 10 uF capacitor. In order to make an electric shock, a transformer device is required, the multiplication coefficient of which is 1 to 400 and above.
To obtain a spark of 1 mm, voltage indicators of about 1000 V are needed. Knowing the sequence of work, you can make such a device with your own hands.
