*guess*the idea with these things is that a pair of bare wires are wound in a spiral (0V, HT), so the bug has to span the wires to be zapped. (?). I'd like to target mozzies as they target me :-)
Like to build rather than buy - before the bug*ers bite me any more (in the shed) :-)
I have the diodes, I have the (hv) C's - but er um no lamp. Does it have to be "UV"? I have some blue HB led's, maybe they would do?
Any fellow bug zappers tried any of this...? zzzzzzzzzzzzzz......zzzzzz.....
