Even without a stun gun, you should be able to fit your camera and coil circuit similarly.

I think its a bit different like i said i do basic electronics. The way i see the wiring diagram when you hit the switch to trigger it all 330volts of the capicator go through it to the ignition coil. This is why people put the relay in. I just think I am highly confused possibly and am failing to produce an actual physical image in my mind.

Do you have a schematic drawing of your circuit?

Yeah you need to add a relay to number 3 trigger. You don't want to be extending the 300 v pulse out on a remote cable.

alternatively leave the flashlamp in there and hook the original trigger contacts to the remote cable. they still carry considerable voltage, but the current isn't there.

that may not work because of the induction added to the circuit by the remote wires, and also to the path to the flashlamp. (if you really want to why, let me know)
