High Voltage Igniter

Here is an easy to build high voltage igniter that can be made fairly cheaply. Ignition coils require their 12v power source to be interrupted for them to release the charge on the high voltage side. Inserting a simple 40amp car relay and wiring it to turn itself and the coil off and on again repeatedly produces a high voltage spark I use to ignite my pulse jet engines.
Below is a list of parts needed. I sourced most of it from Amazon and there are affiliate links provided to the exact parts I used here in this video.
Build Parts:
40amp 5 pin car relay amzn.to/3w3c2hF
12v ignition coil amzn.to/3w3cc8L
Condenser amzn.to/3CLwabR
Extra Wire (I used an old light gauge extension cord) amzn.to/3GKCeSW
Shrink Tube (optional) amzn.to/3w8XJYV
12 volt battery amzn.to/3XdTM0Z
Crimp on Ring Terminals amzn.to/3QJntoj
10-32 bolt and 2 nuts
JB Weld (Optional) amzn.to/3GIMhYS
Tools Required:
Wire Strippers
Soldering Iron (optional)
Solder (optional)
Soldering Paste (optional)
Wrenches
Welder or JB Weld

    This is the first video that steps through exactly the connections for these things.

    Auto manufacturers pulse the positive instead of the negative in their waste(d) spark management systems for better fuel economy…the high tension spark is attracted to both the positive and negative. So all you do is swap the leads around. This implodes the nitrogen in the atmospheric air and sucks the piston up to Top Dead Center from Bottom Dead Center. Use DC GENERATED NON REGULATED FREQUENCY this is where the MAGIC happens…like the model T Ford had on it. Thanks for this tutorial it helps out greatly! Please do more high voltage set ups in future videos. Thank you!

    Nicely done! Can't wait to see what that goes too!! Hehe

    Could you increase the voltage to the coil to get a hotter more powerful spark?

    Without that condenser will the spark not pulse, because I have the same setup but without the condenser and it will only spark if I tap the negative wire coming from the battery and I want it to always be pulsing so is that the condenser issue?

    Well presented simple device - I wonder if it would work as an electric fence generator?

    This ia a well made video, but it would have been even better if a circuit diagram was included. As they say, a diagram is worth more than a thousand words.

    Condenser goes to the negative side of a coil just as it would on a Car.

    Hi just want to find out my relay is getting hot then cuts spark off any ideas followed all steps

    Maybe you should post a schematic of your simple circuit???

    Can tis connect to a roller switch to setup spark timing ?

    I’ve done exactly this and the relay is reluctantly working and getting really warm and no spark through a spark plug ?

    Why does the relay heats up and the circuit breaks?
