My Homemade "Laser Taser" Pistol with pulsed YAG laser and High Voltage Head!!!

This is what happens when you combine thrift store electronics with military surplus parts!

The heart of this bad boy is a pulsed Nd:YAG laser from an old Isreali military rangefinder, which is pumped by a flashlamp and has peak powers of several thousand watts (even though only for a short time). I also added a high voltage generator to make it a little bit scarier.

I should mention that a project like this should NOT be attempted at home! The funny thing is that the taser unit of the gun wouldn't kill me if I got hit (which I have..) but the capacitor bank for the pulsed laser could easily stop my heart. High voltage is not to be messed with by the inexperienced tinkerer, and attempting HV projects at home without much electronics experience is a good way to end up dead on the floor.

On a lighter note, be on the lookout for more vids! The laser bazooka was put on the backburner for a bit due to some issues with my diode banks, but the final product is in sight!

You should also be watching out for my giant ruby lasers that I'll get built before long, as well as some crazy pyro and science vids.
