The Hulda Clark Zapper is ready for immediate use right out of its box for basic zapping needs, using a single 9-volt battery with an easy battery change procedure and green LED indicators that switch red when low on power. Plus, its convenient shape makes battery swapping hassle-free!
The Zapper emits a 30 kHz positive offset electrical signal which is designed to effectively remove pathogens. Some find lower frequencies more effective, however.
555 timer
The 555 timer is an integrated circuit used across numerous electronic applications. Featuring two stable states and configurable to perform any number of functions, its most basic application is producing pulses of varying duration and width; however, other uses for it include voltage-to-frequency converters, clock generators and DC voltage regulators; digital logic probes, light dimmers and accurate timing delays are all potential uses of this versatile integrated circuit.
Hulda Clark was an alternative health practitioner who touted her zapper as a cure for many illnesses by killing parasites and other toxins within the body. The device emits low-frequency square impulse currents through copper handle electrodes that users hold or place over specific body parts; scientists have not verified its claims, though many claim it helps eliminate toxins, relieve pain, increase bloodstream activity and immune system activity, as well as improving overall wellbeing.
A zapper typically comprises of a 9-volt battery, pulse generator circuit and copper handle electrodes for use by its user. Powered by an onboard timer chip and various resistors and capacitors, its circuit emits low-level electrical energy that penetrates skin layers to kill parasites and microbes; detoxify, reduce pain and inflammation and speed healing processes in general.
This circuit features not only the 555 timer but also an additional 39k ohm resistor with a 1/4-volt positive offset to eliminate negative output or spikes, and an anti-polarity-reversal diode between pin-8/negative probe and ground as protection from potential injuries if the circuit is connected backwards.
This circuit was originally intended to operate at 35kHz but can easily be modified for 15 or 30kHz output with just minor component modifications. To half its frequency, simply add a 0.0047uF capacitor in parallel with C2 and connect a switch series-connected to this new capacitor; switching can then toggle between its two operational frequencies.
Resistors
A zapper, also known as Hulda Clark device, is a low-voltage circuit which produces a pulsed square wave at 30kHz that is believed to kill pathogens within the body, such as parasites, fungus or viruses. Homeopathy utilizes small doses of active ingredients in their treatments as an alternative treatment method.
The basic zapper comprises of a 555 timer IC, resistors, capacitors, and an LED for visual feedback. Originally developed by Dr. Hulda Clark to treat various diseases, its primary purpose is producing an electric pulse field deep within the body that penetrates deeply to kill bacteria, parasites, fungus and other pathogens that pose threats such as infections.
Building the zapper is straightforward, although you should make sure all components are compatible. A 555 chip may either be TTL or CMOS–the latter provides sharper square waves at reduced battery current consumption and requires less maintenance costs. To test it properly, an inexpensive multimeter from Radio Shack or Home Depot would do nicely; use it to test whether your output resembles a constant square wave with frequency between 0-9VDC at 50% duty cycle output with zero voltage negative component output (you must modify timing resistor and capacitor settings accordingly).
Some zapper users claim that lower frequencies, such as 15Hz or 30Hz, can be more effective than Clark’s 30,000 Hz in killing parasites or microbes. They claim these lower frequencies penetrate more deeply and affect various aspects of bodily functioning; however there is no scientific proof to support their claim.
Though the zapper cannot guarantee to treat every condition, many users report positive outcomes after two weeks of using it. According to one user’s testimonials, just seven minutes of daily zapping could make a substantial improvement to health; others claim it helps with pain relief, bloat reduction, fatigue relief and depression alleviation.
Capacitors
A capacitor is the central element in a zapper circuit and serves to store energy. Charged up with electric current, it can then be discharged by connecting it to a load – like an incandescent light bulb which will begin glowing once connected and shut off once fully charged.
Capacitors are measured in farads, an SI unit for capacitance. Capacitance can be determined by measuring their capacitance according to two components – their distance between plates or linear dimensions; more precisely C = E/ A/ d). As distance increases so too does capacitance. Furthermore, permittivity plays an integral part in this measurement as materials with higher permittivity allow more field flux through and more charge is collected on their plates.
Capacitors are much faster at charging and discharging than batteries, making them suitable for short bursts of current such as camera flashes. Furthermore, capacitors have much longer lifespans which makes them a cost-effective solution.
Hulda Clark’s book “The Cure for All Diseases” contains a schematic for an electric zapper that can be constructed in a shoe box using $20 worth of Radio Shack parts. Unfortunately, however, this schematic is flawed with regard to battery orientation and capacitor values; furthermore a switch may be added that allows users to select either 30Hz or 15Hz frequency settings requiring changes in component values for proper functioning.

Metalized film capacitors can be produced using this process: first by “slitting and winding” with high precision by length and width to achieve the desired capacitance; next they are encapsulated and heat treated to protect it from moisture exposure and contamination that could potentially harm its internal circuitry; finally they are sealed against humidity exposure with moisture sealants to further ensure reliability of operation – creating an “immensely rugged yet reliable capacitor that shares many electrical properties with ceramic counterparts.
