Homemade 2kV capacitor 9.20nf

Homemade capacitor, 9.20nf capacitance. Sorry for the poor quality as I am still tweaking with the render settings in Sony Vegas to get the best quality, so please use the 480p option.

it looks weak, i mean no strong sprakles, i have small ones who can scare the hell of someone when they short !

can anyone make a capacitor as tight as the pro ones ?

@tyreza79 You have to remember that the capacitance is very low.

@tyreza79 If you want to see a decent loud capacitor bank discharge then see my latest video.

ZAP, iphone charged. XD

@ipaqmaster Actually I have a funny story about that, I zapped a friends old cell phone and it still turned on and also it gave the battery a full charge. Strange.

@Alex1M6 thats going to be the technology of the future, insta-charging =P

[Alex1M6]

@ipaqmaster lol I can see the energy companies panicking already!

@Alex1M6 I need a tutorial, I would love to have made my own capacitor and I charge my capacitors in the ground!

@Alex1M6 Okay, thanks =)

@remzi133 Its just kitchen foil and laminated paper taped together and I used a 1.2kV bug zapper to charge it.

Hope this answers your questions.
