In addition to everything you instinctually felt about how horrible this is, according to the company’s own documentation, these are not supposed to be used on children as it increases the chance of death

Other highlights include:

multiple or prolonged shocks are lethal
disrupts the human heart
"cannot" be used on the head, face, throat, chest and groin
"cannot" be used on pregnant women, children, older adults, or people with disabilities
can deliver 90 minutes of shocks per charge

Me when I’m trying to innocently do my job of shocking people in the street but I run out of charge after only 80 minutes (I should have gotten the 90 minute battery) and can no longer harras-- I mean protect people

Luckily, as a member of ~~the gestapo~~ ice, you’re part of the 3rd most well funded military in the world. We’ll buy you two for when you have to beat the crowds.

That 90 minutes shit is just as insane as everything else. These are so very obviously designed to be used as a constant pain device. They want people to fill with terror at the sight of their oppressors.

Wow, yeah, 380V / 1.2A can absolutely be lethal if electrocuted… even in healthy adults. The most dangerous path for the electricity is from the hand or arm, as it can pass through the heart; which of course is exactly where you would grab a person with the glove.
