High Voltage Igniter
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 сен 2024
- Here is an easy to build high voltage igniter that can be made fairly cheaply. Ignition coils require their 12v power source to be interrupted for them to release the charge on the high voltage side. Inserting a simple 40amp car relay and wiring it to turn itself and the coil off and on again repeatedly produces a high voltage spark I use to ignite my pulse jet engines.
Below is a list of parts needed. I sourced most of it from Amazon and there are affiliate links provided to the exact parts I used here in this video.
Build Parts:
40amp 5 pin car relay amzn.to/3w3c2hF
12v ignition coil amzn.to/3w3cc8L
Condenser amzn.to/3CLwabR
Extra Wire (I used an old light gauge extension cord) amzn.to/3GKCeSW
Shrink Tube (optional) amzn.to/3w8XJYV
12 volt battery amzn.to/3XdTM0Z
Crimp on Ring Terminals amzn.to/3QJntoj
10-32 bolt and 2 nuts
JB Weld (Optional) amzn.to/3GIMhYS
Tools Required:
Wire Strippers
Soldering Iron (optional)
Solder (optional)
Soldering Paste (optional)
Wrenches
Welder or JB Weld

This is the first video that steps through exactly the connections for these things.
Great work
Thank you. I hope it was clear enough. I feel like sometimes a schematic just isn't good enough
Electronics. Its fun ! At 10 years old........ had party lines ( phone ) going by our home in the country side. 6 party lines. Took a single thin wire and connected one line of each party line ......with a resistor between them. The resistor prevents the line from registering as " busy "....... then I put that line into my transistor radio to the amplifier side. Anytime anyone made a call. It rang in and I could listen to everything ! Lucky I never got caught !! :) Or...... as a 10 year old Id be in prison !
Auto manufacturers pulse the positive instead of the negative in their waste(d) spark management systems for better fuel economy…the high tension spark is attracted to both the positive and negative. So all you do is swap the leads around. This implodes the nitrogen in the atmospheric air and sucks the piston up to Top Dead Center from Bottom Dead Center. Use DC GENERATED NON REGULATED FREQUENCY this is where the MAGIC happens…like the model T Ford had on it. Thanks for this tutorial it helps out greatly! Please do more high voltage set ups in future videos. Thank you!
Awesome, thanks!
I had a model T coil years ago and it got ruined somehow. Had to get a little creative and this works perfect for creating a beast of a spark for my pulse jets.
The lack of likes for your comment gave me the realization that a future with cold fusion & a bright & prosperous future are on the same path of achievement.
This works great when you have bunk beds.... use " fine " transformer wires to thread up and under the bed sheets..... use another fine wire to weave them through the bed sheets to where your victim will sleep...... when all is quiet.... turn on the power !!!!!!
@@user-tc3ou6sy5f that's brutal 🤣
@@BuildNStuff Its cool...... no need for a alarm clock ! Just at timer !
@@user-tc3ou6sy5f that sounds like the beginnings of a prank war that I don't think I'd want to finish 🤔😅🤣
@@BuildNStuff Another...... water chickens out of a metal pan..... make the pan hot. Normally the chickens will do a complete flip and end up back on their feet !
Man I am stoked I found your channel. I love the content.
Awesome Thanks!
This ia a well made video, but it would have been even better if a circuit diagram was included. As they say, a diagram is worth more than a thousand words.
Nicely done! Can't wait to see what that goes too!! Hehe
You and me both!
Well presented simple device - I wonder if it would work as an electric fence generator?
Good video but for electrical people a simple wiring diagram speaks a thousand words.
Thanks, I suppose it would work for an electric fence generator, but I wonder how well? I thought about just putting up a diagram, but there are other videos out there with those and I saw a ton of people being confused in the comments, so I thought something more visual would be better for most.
maybe use a 12v flasher in series on 12v+ side of coil?
So how to up the amps ......want to use this as an electric fencer. As it is........theres no power to carry the spark........but a few hundred yards ? Any way to increase the force ?
Maybe you should post a schematic of your simple circuit???
Is it a normally open or normally closed relay I built it according to what you did but no spark
@@jjmasser8820 it is a normally closed. You want the circuit to be closed so that it runs through itself to activate the magnet in the relay that opens the circuit. Opening the circuit shuts off the magnet letting the relay close again and start the process all over again.
Can you use a 4 wire relay?
@@henrilaceyacramel1568 yes you really only need a four wire relay
@@BuildNStuff perfect I’m all set them. Wiring it up after work
I wired it up but only a spark on disconnect
Could you increase the voltage to the coil to get a hotter more powerful spark?
Maybe 20v?
Yes I believe so
Now show how to wire it to my forklift.
Without that condenser will the spark not pulse, because I have the same setup but without the condenser and it will only spark if I tap the negative wire coming from the battery and I want it to always be pulsing so is that the condenser issue?
Yes, you need that condenser
@@BuildNStuff sweet thanks
Condenser goes to the negative side of a coil just as it would on a Car.
Works well the way I've got it here.
@@BuildNStuff I cant say much because I dont know the rest of how its wired.If a coil has its poles swapped around it looses about 30 % of its spark & these tip of the spark plug runs colder making starting harder .I have a drawing of how to build one on my pulse jet engine sight.
Although the condenser may be backwards, the ignition coil itself is wired correctly. This is how I wrote it down 15+ years ago and the few I've made this way have worked well. A condenser is most likely a non-polarized capacitor and if that is the case, it is irrelevant how you hook it up.
Can you explain how to do it in a car
Why does the relay heats up and the circuit breaks?
Hi just want to find out my relay is getting hot then cuts spark off any ideas followed all steps
How long are you running it for?
Sir, can we use it as a Fish stunner...??
No idea really?
Non si distinguono la posizione dei fili nel inserto nero.
Black wire pin 85?
I’ve done exactly this and the relay is reluctantly working and getting really warm and no spark through a spark plug ?
Send me a few pictures of your setup

Can tis connect to a roller switch to setup spark timing ?
Well, that's how points work. This is simulating the points, but much, much faster.
Can you explain how to do it in a car
Do you mean hook up an ignition coil to run a spark plug in an interior combustion engine?
Système chime
'PromoSM'
Am i tripping out or are you switching the positive side of the coil?
I might be, but it works
@BuildNStuff fair enough. I built this after seeing your video for fun and I switched the negative side like in a car.
I'm a mechanic by trade. I turn it on and it scares the kids lol
🤣🤣 That's awesome.
Can you explain how it could be done in a car
