Question

f i were to power a stun gun (high voltage, low amperege) with batteries connected in parallel?

one normally powered by two 9 volts. the idea; a stun gun that will not run out of juice in the middle of a brawl. were i to connect more 9 volts, in parallel, with the ones powering the device, would this give longer performance? would it put strain on the system (ie, burn it/me, melt it, or explode)? would the amperage become deadly (a thing i'd like to avoid!), as opposed to just shocking, but not life threatening (i know; pacemakers - but i don't expect to be fighting off mobs of seniors. "who do you expect to be fighting off?", you ask? a friend was attacked by a gang of over 50 assailants, recently, while in a party of 4 [3 men, 1 woman, causing 0 trouble, conservative-casual dress]... a shifting group of these people, in varying numbers, congregate on numerous streetcorners, and the like, in our cities [his and mine]. i'm considering tear gas and flash grenades!). police fear these groups. help! poor diction due to YA's word count limit. other questions to come.

er, IF i were to power... the word limit is making me look more insane than the question!

i'm serious, here. non-lethal serious, if i may coin a phrase. i don't want to hurt anyone, permanently - the police, though conspicuously absent, during these confrontations, tend to look down upon such behaviour, unless they're perpetrating it, and they have more power and resources than i. i've considered a camera flash gun, as a stunning device, as well, but this has limitations (doesn't work in light), and dangers (possible permanent eye damage), too. i wonder about keeping these powered, as well; i imagine they require a lot of juice. i'm not a psycopath looking for a fight, just a person who'd like to be able to walk around his block, at night. any serious help appreciated. anyone have experience with information unlimited's sonic devices? do they work?

i CAN'T avoid these people - they're omnipresent! i live in a "deep urban" area, and can't afford to move.

Answer 1

Beyond the technical issue, be very careful about modifying a weapon, unless you have the credentials to do so! Any adverse outcome will be blamed on you.

Answer 2

I solved the details of your problem and these are the results:

1. Voltage does not decrease.
2. Current (amperage) does not decrease
3. Power loss per battery is reduced by a factor of (1/no of batteries) squared. AKA, longer performance.

Translated: you will get the same amount of juice, but of a longer period of time.

The high voltage output will depend ONLY on the specs of the manufacturer. As long as you connect the batteries in parallel, you will not overload the stun gun.

However, just be careful with it, it still has a chance that it will overload if too many batteries are connected, since nothing is perfect.

Answer 3

Sounds like a problem ,the current of the stun gun is 4 Milli amps,which is normally safe if u are not on drugs.
Possible solution a little difficult, one side connects to ground and the rest of u are insulated from the ground. metallic clothing that is insulated from u the other connection is to the metallic clothing. If u get it to work correctly u will be OK and they will be OK unless they touch u.

Answer 4

yes
