i found this when trying to find out how to build a stun gun from a disposable camera and i think it would be quite usefull especially for planes

just a quick note on that, it is possible to KILL someone (or yourself) with the voltage that is stored in that flash cap. best to stay FAR away from those!


anyway, the tricky part about the locator is that your normal plane crash scatters parts a LONG ways! I've had times finding the battery pack is a challenge, or impossible. wires are ripped, everything is disconnected, so there is no power running to this.

what they are really useful for is a battery reminder, you won't accidently leave the power switch on and drain your battery to nothing, which could end up saving the plane for you!
