  • where can i obtain photodiodes? please do not say Radioshack because i am not in the US and that answer would be just as helpful as no answer.

    thanks great vid.

  • @7sevenELFeleven I have used photodiodes from ball mouses

  • does the cap charger cut off power to prevent the caps from blowing?

    

  • @thatoneguy99100 yes, it cuts off power when caps charged to 400v

  • How did you time the stages?

  • @kravcio by optic triggers
