drizzt Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 ok i seen some 1 selling plans for an ion gun that can pop ballons at a 8' range i love trying electronics projects but this one seems a little far fetched. does any 1 have any experience with this type of application and any links if possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5614 Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 Well they exist: A product: http://www.rbdenter.com/PDF%20Files/RBD%20Ion%20Gun%20Package.pdf Some details: http://www.oaresearch.co.uk/mig5.htm So they do exist, whether the designs are correct I don't know because I haven't seen them!

YT2095 Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 what is it to be used for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drizzt Posted May 23, 2005 Author Share Posted May 23, 2005 basically a novelty item. the ones that i have read about can pop a ballon and make a person feel uncomfortable if pointed at them. really i just wanted to learn more about ions and how to focus them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YT2095 Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 Hmm... the best I can offer is a Microwave Cannon design that I`ve built, but I`ll need to chat with my peers as to our policy on Hazardous Materials and sub-sections. I doubt very much if if it`ll be allowed (I wouldn`t allow it myself with untrained folks in all honesty). I WILL ask though, that IS a promise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drizzt Posted May 23, 2005 Author Share Posted May 23, 2005 cool, ty yt. i have messed around with a few magnatrons b4 but never really tried to focus the waves. sound very interesting and cool to but again if the rules do not allow it thats alright Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Says Posted June 12, 2005 Share Posted June 12, 2005 Ever heard of cathode ray tubes (in t.v.s etc.)? It's the same thing. Also.. if you have heard of ion engines (deep space one) its just an ion gun on a larger scale... I studied a lot about ion engines and so should know all the basic premises for the ion gun... you can pm if you have any questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
