Under Load (Dummy_Load#1)
4.58Vp, 1.44V Offset; +2.32mAp; -1.20mAp

Overall : This zapper is a "carbon copy" of H. Clark's zapper, except for one detail: The 555 and its components uses much less power (555 CMOS?) and makes it more efficient on battery's energy. 
A seriously made device under strict quality control at an unbeatable price.

(+++++)
This zapper is selling now (February 2010) for $10.00US. 
You will not find a better Value on the market for this kind of zapper.

Ideal to try the zapper's basic effect on the very efficient 30kHz frequency, or as a backup zapper, or as a traveling zapper, due to its low weight and bulk.

To note : Mr MStrong1 has a very good reputation on eBay (100% positive)

(- - - - -)
(Minor point) The positive output wire has a red shrinkable tube close to the alligator clip.
A full length
RED wire and RED alligator clip would be appreciated.

Documentation is missing.  A real lack on an entry level zapper, but this is a good way to avoid serious problems with a VERY restrictive North American Administration of Health (AMA, FDA and alike).

Lack of an On-Off Switch will seriously wear the battery's connector, even of the Heavy Duty kind, if you intent to use it often.

===========================================

Price List (February 2010): $ 10.00US from eBay store (USA Only) : " Get it While You Can "

A twin brother, with a frequency of 15Hz sells for more. Feeling of the current flow is stronger, but the original version (30kHz) is yet more effective.

Be aware : There is some zappers known as "tendollarzapper" or selling at about these prices, on the market.  Not all are made "equal" or made by the same people.
You will find the one tested here in this site :

Without Load : 7.12Vp, 0.26V Offset;
Duty Cycle 50%
FFT without Load, 30kHz

This zapper seems ridiculously denuded, without copper tubes, battery, or housing, or even an on-off switch. 
No documentation accompanies it neither.   How this "thing" can do anything at all?

Sometimes good things comes in "ridiculously denuded" packages, and this bench test will prove-it!

Bench Test
"10DollarZapper" from MStrong1, eBay
MStrong1 comments on this "10dollarzapper" bench test :

This zapper design was in response to several "ten dollar zappers" on the market that were very poorly made, unreliable, basically wads of 20% tolerance parts, balled up in either a wad of tape or a few inches of heat shrink.  To add insult to injury, the people making these quickly got a reputation for taking FOREVER to ship them.

I felt there was a need for a very basic, yet well made zapper that was straight Dr. Clark, aimed at the person who had read her book and wanted to make the circuit she published, yet couldn't relate to the "shoebox" method that Dr Clark showed.  Obtaining copper pipes wasn't a barrier for these people, just making the circuit.  Owning 3 complete surface
mount lines, making circuits is easy for me.

I made sure to use high quality flexible cords, high quality clips, had a special extra heavy duty battery clip good for many matings and unmatings made, we also carefully selected a CMOS 555 and used very tight tolerance passive components.  You can't do any of this at this price unless you run at least 1,000 units at a time.

As I'm sure you can tell, there is next to no profit in this item. That's OK with me, this one is intended to let people begin
experimenting with zappers, inexpensively and reliably.  Dr Clark estimated the cost to make one of these circuits at $20, years ago, as well as much time and frustration.  Why bother when you can get the same thing, made much better for 1/2 the cost?

The 15hz one is made for a different audience and costs more because it requires more expensive parts to hold the frequency close to 15hz and we make them in smaller runs.  Machine set up costs the same regardless of how many you run.

There are and never will be instructions as I personally know zapper makers that have been financially ruined by the authorities.  I will not risk becoming one of them.
Yes, this is a real zapper following the last
H. Clark recommendations!
Quoted as the "Smallest zapper in the world"
