Ithaxa Posted May 13, 2004 Posted May 13, 2004 Ruling out: dodging it, and wearing a full body armor suit of non-conductive material. Is there anything you can do to lessen the effects of the tazer or simply not get shocked? here is one potential solution i see, but i dont know if it will make it worse or not. http://www.afrotechmods.com/cheap/pikashoe/pikashoe.htm It pretty much grounds yourself with a 12v Negative ion generator. I Think those tazers use 50k v?
Dave Posted May 13, 2004 Posted May 13, 2004 I think that site is a little bit unscientifically based, but it's a bit hard to stop yourself getting tasered to be fair. And yes, they use about 50-100k volts.
Sayonara Posted May 13, 2004 Posted May 13, 2004 I stop myself being tazered by not going near people with tazers and calling them names.
Dave Posted May 13, 2004 Posted May 13, 2004 That's the most sensible approach. My suggestion is to go and wear body armour.
[Tycho?] Posted May 17, 2004 Posted May 17, 2004 Wear some sort of conducting mesh over non-conducting materiel. Allow some of the metal to touch the ground, so as to allow the electricity to flow through the metal and into the ground, instead of into your body (which isn't a good conductor compared to metal). You can be the one that tests it.
fafalone Posted May 17, 2004 Posted May 17, 2004 Not harassing women you don't know and/or not robbing them on the streets at night is a good way not to get tazered...
Dave Posted May 18, 2004 Posted May 18, 2004 If someone wants to tazer you, then you've probably deserved it tbh.
Glider Posted May 18, 2004 Posted May 18, 2004 I think that rather assumes tazer owners are infallable judges of character and intent, rather than, as is more likely, scared people who are anticipating attack.
Tesseract Posted May 18, 2004 Posted May 18, 2004 Not harassing women you don't know and/or not robbing them on the streets at night is a good way not to get tazered... Wow never would have thought of that. Maybe Ithaxa is tazer owner and wants to find out if the police have any protection against it.
YT2095 Posted May 18, 2004 Posted May 18, 2004 what kind of tazer are you refering to? the gun type or the personal contact only type?
Ithaxa Posted May 21, 2004 Author Posted May 21, 2004 either kind the one that is a probe or the one that shoots the electrical leads into the target. I think the body armor as suggested is an effective way, but not practical. As for the piercing leads, i was wondering if you were charged before the leads hit you, would one of them get shocked off? i remeber studying something like that in physics, where a charged partical with a velocity enters a field, and it adverts the field or something. *edit* so 135 per second thats not possible to push away without something very powerful? But what is interesting is that they use some kind of special pulse that they call a T-wave(also Electro-Muscular Disruption (EMD) technology). That stuns the nervous and muscle system but does not really electrocute the person. Would the Pikashoe disrupt the wave? I did find warnings on the sites that sell the tasers, where small percentages of the population have high tolerance for electrical stimulation and can fight it. How do they did get the tolerance? I dont think practicing getting shocked would increase your tolerance? PCP? Huge Mass? *while editing i studied drugs that are used on people who have an abnormal T-waves in their heart and how hospitals correct it* Giving yourself high potassium levels, and Adenosine Triphosphate - ATP, helps to repolarize the ions in your body and give you energy. im gonna introduce this thread to the biology section to see what they say

YT2095 Posted May 21, 2004 Posted May 21, 2004 I was wondering if higher levels of potassium and Adenosine Triphosphate - ATP would increase your tolerance or recovery time from a tazer shock? taken from the other thread you started, it belonged in here
Glider Posted May 22, 2004 Posted May 22, 2004 Higher levels of potassium would put you into coronary arhythmia. You wouldn't need to be tazered.
