Not much, I've been shocked a lot worse by a BBQ igniter.

I used one of these for my mini a while ago.I used a sparkplug with the spark gap realy close together,if it isnt close together they dont work.Those little things have a bit of a punch when the shock goes through your arm and out the other but they are illegal here the only reasonw e have them is because my cousins brought them for us from Holland.

Any auto-electric spark coil will work as well you just need a 12+ volt source I.E. Coulple of 9v batteries in series, 8 or more AA, ect. just wire in a momentary switch and you're good to go.
