Electric mouse/rat traps on youtube, and I was trying to figure out the power supply to buy one. There are loads of fake videos with 12V battery + 150uF 450V cap in parallel... the HV PSU is hidden.
I saw this PSU which has weird RGB led flashing and possibly a timer and shutoff. Closest I could get to it is a "DC-DC 3.7V Step-up to 1500V-2000V-1800V High Voltage Pulse" but it does not have the extra circuit (MCU?) seen in pics. I think a timer or something like a fencer is needed.
Other youtube vids use a (hidden) boost converter with 10-150uF 450VDC cap charged up, across the electrodes.
I was not interested in tasers because of the fire hazard with an arc and the stink.
Anyone recognize the board or know the name for it?
