Question about clarks zapper

[Guest guest]

Hello

I have made the zapper that comes in the book " the cure for all

deseases " and when testing it I really dont know if it works properly,

because when I turned on the zapper, the led was turned on, I

connected a Digital multimeter with frequency counter and the voltage

was OK 8.7 volts but when checking the frequency the DMM meassured 0.0

Hz. and it supposed to produce a frequency of 30 hz (isnt it).

If anyone had a problem like this and solved it, please help me or if

you have a different diagram that the book has please tell me where I

can find it or send it to me.

I made 4 different zappers with the same diagram the book has and the

result was the same, 0.0 Hz.

Please help

Your voltage is too high. It should be between 4 and 5 volts with a

fresh battery. Make sure that nothing is shorting out. You also want to

check your chip and try a new one since you've tried this four times with no

luck. Chips are easily zapped with static, so be careful about that. The

diagram is accurate, so be assured that isn't the problem.

Dear ,

You may have an old edition of the Cure for All Diseases (ProMotion Publishing

on the spine). If so, make these two changes:

1. Join pin 4 on the 555 to pin 8.

2. Join pin 1 to battery negative.

I think this will bring your zappers to life. It is always a good idea to

measure the frequency if possible to be sure you are actually getting a square

wave at the output. The LED will glow even if the output is always high, as you

just saw.

While you are at it, you can easily lower the frequency of the zapper to 2 kHz

or so by changing C2 from 0.0047 uF to 0.068 uF (also written as 68 nF), or to

0.15 uF (150 nF) for 1 kHz.

Blessings!

I'd double check your jumpers/connections. Its easy to miss a

connection. Make sure your connections to your chip are correct also.

Check out the How to video on this site: http://www.clarkzapper.net/

I made a few zappers from this site snf had problems that you

describe. Its most likely something you missed. Good Luck

Thank you guys for all your help, After reading your messages, I

realised that the diagram was OK and some of my connections were

wrong. I never saw the splice between the the cap C2 and the

resistance R2, the indicating point is very little.

Now I have a voltaje of 4.x and a freq of 25.x Hz

Thank you for your help and support!

Hi Friends

I am from India and stumbled upon this excellent title by Dr. Hulda

.

It has taken me more than a month to get the zapper assembled - time

primarily was more because I could not find the timer chip in stores

near me.

A friend travelling to US obliged - but the chip I got was 555CN and

not LM555. The Radio Shack guy had assured that both the chips are

same and there is no difference.

Assuming that both the chips 555CN and LM555 are same - I got it

assembled from an Electronic Store [using 555CN].

However as I do not have access to an Oscilloscope - I can rely only

on the output Voltage test for validating the Zapper. The output

voltage is 2 Volts only. I even tried using two 9 Volts batteries in

parallel. Still the batteries showed input voltage as 8 Volts and the

Output voltage remained at 2 volts.

My question is - is this output voltage of 2 volts enough? Can

someone help me please.

Thanks and Regards
