  • =( oh the tears

  • make a tutorial!

  • Detailed build pictures are available on the project's homepage. Check the video info for the link.

  • What is the uF and voltage on your capasitor?

  • 400V 560 uF. But i wouldn't use my numbers. This project was just for fun. I had the parts lying around so I gave it a shot. The results weren't amazing but I was very happy when that bb even came out of the barrel.

  • @andrewjbright

    A Softair with 20 Joules... A Dream But no reality

  • @cacneaunit6

    uF stands for something (lol) farads, which is measurement of capacity (50 uF would have low capacity, but 1 F would hold alot.)

    joules are the impact force (an airsoft gun is about 5-20 joules)

    and mF is microfarads, similair to uF

  • what is a joule and a mf and what does uf stand for

  • awsome casing never thought of that before :P

  • Wow it goes through paper,not my blowdart is better than that!

  • one word: defibrilator

  • @SireSpamelot it's simple if you have an hold camera you can take off the internal circuit (pay attention at the capacitor don't touch the circuit without gloves there is 350 v) so, you take a metal tube , a nail and a copper wire so winding copper wire round the metal tube (like a coil) firm the 2 wires of the coil to the capacitor,in the flash circuit there is a flash charge button (make sure that the battery aaa is at its place) touch the charge button with a screwdriver you will hear
