Marshmallow Bazooka

The guys over at Mondo Technology are at it again. If you have some PIC chips left over from your last project why not control a high voltage Marshmallow Bazooka ignition system with it.

“This device uses a PIC12F629 to create a burst of 30 high voltage pulses. The PIC activates a 1000 volt N-Chan FET driving a standard ignition coil. After the ignition, the PIC goes dormant until activated again. Most of the electronics, including the battery and momentary switch are located in the handle.”
