Is tetanizing painful?
• There is no pain whatsoever. In fact, when the rate of electrical pulses is properly adjusted, it is impossible to feel the tetanizing effect. • Can you make it painful? • Although it is not our intent to inflict pain, if the current were increased and the optimal pulse repetition rate were lowered to 2 or 3 pulses per second, the affected person would feel painful shocks. • Suppose a police officer held the beams on someone’s eyes for a long time. Would it hurt? • Aside from the fact that conducting the current through a person’s face would not immobilize him, prolonged exposure to the ultraviolet beams would be irritating. For more details please click on the paper “Ocular Safety”. • Could you make these weapons lethal? • We have no intention of doing so. They were created to save lives, not to take them. Perhaps one of the end-users would do this, but it would be without our knowledge or approval. • Would it be dangerous to point it at a storm cloud? • As would be true with any go
