If you like that, you should check out a TV flyback transformer sometime! Don't know if it would produce enough current to kill, but the voltage sure hurt!

I have sold a few thousand units custom made for Philips Brasil. Thye had something like 12Kv. I'm not sure if it was 12000 volts.

hehe, that low voltage Brain!

Come stop by and I will show you my 'Tesla Coil' running at ~700,000volts AC... very load, and looks VERY deadly, however you can hold you hand in the arcs and you only feel very minor shocks... that's because it's running at very high frequencies ~500khz resonant freq.

I have heard of ppl using those flyback transformers in small Tesla Coils for the primary circuit.
