If anyone's interested, these are very easy to make. It's just a relay with the NC contacts in series with the coil (and the power). When you turn on the power, the coil energizes and breaks its own circuit. However, because of the fairly large inductance of the coil, it will try to still push current, so if you happen to be across the coil, it's going to push that current through you.

It's a few mA at best, but it's enough to startle someone.
