  • 330 fucking volts for only shoot it about 2 cm????

  • @Meokins wut?

  • @VinnieDain424 No, a disposable cameras flash uses high tension DC current which is completely different to mains power.

  • you said for kinetic energy ke=1/2xmassx*voltage*^2 obviously a typo, but you said voltage instead of velocity :P

  • i think the capacitor is more dangerous than the metalbolt!

  • Careful! You might kill someone with this monstrosity!

  • coil gun frankenstein!!!

  • You would get a lot more power from a rubber band. The rubber band also would require any wires, it wouldn't require charging up a capasitor and it's safe to use.

    You can still end the rubberband video with a lot of calculations and math if you want to be scientific about it, just stick to doing something simple instead of over complicating things unless you are ready to impress.

  • dont forget eddy losses and stray flux!
