This module is a Portable, variable-power Photography flash.
it powers using a 12v source like a wall adapter or a car battery for on-location photography. A 3.5mm sync socket is included to allow triggering by a sync cord or wireless trigger.

• Adjustable voltage: The step-less knob allows you to select the charge voltage.
  
• FAST : Charges a 500uF capacitor to 300v in just 0.6s ! Or 120 Joules in only 3.4s .
  This is about 3-4 times FASTER than a typical on-camera Flashgun.
• POWERFUL, HIGH EFFICIENCY: The module is capable of charging capacitors of any size, thus can power a high-energy flash unit. The high-efficiency technology used in this circuit will both save you lots of battery power (more shots), and allow cooler operation, without any worry about excessive temperatures.
• All-in-one: The module includes a visual LED indicator and audible BEEP buzzer for READY notification when the desired power is charged. Also, it features a 3.5mm sync input and a TEST button
• CUSTOMIZABLE: You can choose the capacitors according to the power you need, so you don't end up paying for twice the capacitance you actually use. Output voltage range can also be customized using the on-board trimmers, you could set the minimum and maximum allowable voltages for adapting to a specific flash tube, for example.
• On-location / Outdoor flash system: Running on 12v, you can easily use it anywhere thanks to your car's battery, or even much smaller sized batteries like LiPo or other Lithium batteries. At any time you could also use it with a simple 12v wall adapter for unlimited indoor use. It is definitely the ideal Photobooth flash module. Imagine deploying and operating a portable photo-booth without the need for mains power !

Details, Wiring diagram

This module is delivered to you after being professionally assembled and inspected. It has passed the quality control process successfully.
Please follow connections polarity and safety directions to ensure good functioning of the module and your personal safety.
Thanks for your cooperation !

The module is calibrated to output 250v to 700v
according to the main potentiometer knob position.
Please only use compatible capacitors for the output
- for example two (2) capacitors in series, rated at least 350v each (total 700v).


Always monitor the output voltage using a voltmeter and make sure you do not exceed the capacitors’ voltage rating.

WARNING: This kit involves High Voltage up to 800v which is stored in big capacitors even long after turning the unit off. THIS VOLTAGE CAN CAUSE SEVERE DAMAGE AND INJURY. Never touch any of the components and always discharge the capacitor before working on it. Always keep in a well insulated project enclosure.
BY FOLLOWING THESE INSTRUCTIONS YOU AGREE TO BE THE ONLY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE THAT MIGHT BE CAUSED BY DOING SO.                         WORK CAREFULLY AND FOLLOW WARNINGS

Step 1: Solder the capacitors

Place the capacitors on the top side of the board, following the correct polarity.

Locate the trigger coil, and connect its output (flying wire) to the lamp trigger terminal. This wire should be clipped short, and well insulated.

Step 2: Connect your lamp

Solder the capacitor terminals on this side. Pay attention to the middle trace linking the two capacitors:
This trace sould be filled with a thick layer of solder, as the capacitors will discharge into the lamp through this path.

The Xenon flash tube (lamp) should be connected to the two outermost terminals of the capacitors
