These modules are widely sold on eBay as high voltage pulse generators with grossly inflated output voltage figures like 400kV. They put out closer to 20-40kV as 400kV would probably jump about 150mm/6" in dry air.
They are so cheap and mass produced that they must be from a common product, so I decided to test if they were for stun guns by touching the output....
Note that the circuitry in these modules appears to be based on a high frequency inverter with a multiple stage multiplier as opposed to the traditional circuitry I described.
Here's an eBay search link for these interesting modules.

I bought one that looked exactly like that (said it was 40kv) that I used to make a rat zapper. I never tested it on myself though.
I bought this device to detect internally broken cables by applying voltage. When i inject to defected cable broken place is burning inside and shows you where is defected.
How to not kill my self using this?
Yes 5 kv hurts.
ah, but can you rig them up to your front door nob ?
I use one of these along with a constant current regulator board in a DIY powder coating electrostatic gun that i hook up to my air compressor to blow the powder. Its basically some PVC pipe with a T fitting and one side of the top of the T plugged. The bottom of the T is attached to a threaded cap for a glass bottle which holds the poweder. The plugged side of the T has an air coupling on it, along with a piece of tubing that runs through the plug and down into the bottle. The electricity bit connects to a piece of copper solid wire that runs down the main piece of PVC tubing and every inch is a piece soldered to it which keeps everything centered. So air is blown into the bottle which blows the powder up and through the threaded bit, then down the tube with the copper thats electrified. This charges the powder and it sticks to any grounded metal just like a $400 gun. Works great, not one shock. And so far i've gone through 5 pounds of powder using the gun on various projects. screw paint. powdercoat rules.
YOU ARE ACTIVATING THE FEQS IN THE WAVES USING THIS DEVICE CRACKS THE ATOM THE DEMON CORES PRODUCING….ATOMIC POWER IS THE ATMOS STREAMS ENERGYS EVERYWHERES THEY ART LIARS
I put it in an electric swat and i use to kill wasp and bug
No worse than being savaged by a mad dog
I replaced my super fly zapper circuitry with this module and a 9 volt battery. The flies don't like it 😉
Any type of "stun gun" is certainly illegal in the UK and possession can attract a 5 year prison sentence. I wonder though if these modules are illegal? As such they are not stun guns and as a module producing high voltage have many applications in the experimenter's home laboratory.
thanks! I was hoping you would do a video on this. They have intrigued and worried me for some times, didnt dare to buy them, felt like 'there's something not okay with this landing on my doorstep for 3 pounds'
👍 👍 👍 Good stuff.
