You can form the lead into the shape of a very small staple, place it

through the PC board across those two holes and solder it into place. If

you decide to use a tilt switch in the future you would mount it across

these two points.

 15. Solder two wires into the holes marked “Power Sw.” for the switch that

you get to provide.

 16. Solder two pieces of wire into the holes marked “Power”. If you find it

confusing to use the same color wire for both the positive and the negative

inputs you can use your own red or other alternate color wire in the hole

marked “+”.

 17. Lastly, solder two wires into the holes marked “Output” (one is marked

with a “+” sign and one with a “-” sign). These are the high voltage output

wires where you’ll connect your touch pads.

You’re all done!

SETUP AND TESTING

Now it’s time to power up. Your output wires need to be touching a metal

object to give you a good zap. You could attach them to little pieces of tin foil,

about a square inch or so. You could also solder them to little pieces of

copper-clad circuit board. Metal washers will work as well. When you have

something attached to them, twist together the two wires attached to the holes

marked “Power Sw.”; this is like turning the switch to the “on” position. Then

apply 3V-6V DC to the input wires from your battery, battery pack, or other DC

power source. Observe polarity! The DC positive is connected to the wire in

the hole marked “+” and the negative is connected to the wire in the hole

marked “-”. Warning, 6V will zap you pretty good! You might try 3V first. Go

ahead and touch the output pads you made and enjoy the shock.

Another warning: If you have a scope probe connected to the output leads to

see the voltage waveform you will get a surprise when you touch the output

pads! The shock will be much greater. This phenomenon is a hint at a way of

possibly juicing up your tickle stick without drawing any more power.

Once you know that the unit is operating correctly you can add a power switch

if you wish. It is recommended that you test the unit by twisting the wires

together first so that you know the kit works properly before adding another

element such as a power or tilt switch. If you went ahead and installed a

power switch before you read this and your Tickle Stick doesn’t seem to be

operating properly, check the troubleshooting section first, then remove your

power switch as a possible source of the problem and try it again.
