"A Car Ignition Coil Driver"





Created: "July 16 2007"
Updated: "Oct 18, 2009"
A NEW REVISED PCB & PICTURE OVERLAY.
A Simple design based on a 555 to Drive a Car Ignition Coil.
I Designed this for a Small Electric Fence to Protect my
Vegitable Garden from some Small Animal called a Marmots.
Last year they ate one of my crops entirely before I could
install this device.
A Few Shocks and No More Probem.
My Garden is on Raised beds and the High Voltage wire is just
3 inches above the wood frames on homemade PVC Pipe Insulators.
Could be Quite useful for persons that have Rabbit Problems also,
with the wire raised a bit higher, But Read Warning Below.
Definately Makes a STRONG Electric Fence.
However, because it is a Continuous pulse output,
WARNING: This can Kill Smaller animals,
such as cats and rabbits, And Probably Even Small Children!
For a Much Safer Electric Fence,
PLEASE consider making the "C-Mos Fencer" Project.
However this Car coil design can have many other uses as a HV Supply.
Not much else I can say now, maybe more later. .
