Up the power a little and you can crush rock. It's all for science, of course.

Twenty years ago I helped demo some equipment at Caltech, and saw a system they had, that created an arc it water. It was used to experiment with remediation of chemicals. I don't think theirs had that power, but I never saw it operate. Mikek
Haven't seen the video and won't, but 1 or 4 mA has nothing to do with standards on these devices.
A lot of web based resources concerning stun guns or tasers disappeared from the web, shortly after the death of Robert Dziekanski.
A supplement to the UK HOSDB2 doesn't seem to be web searchable. At ~5MB, I can't host it. A.B.S.E. upload attempts only produce errors.

Interesting. That document states the peak current from the M26 as 9 amps whereas this one says 18 amps:
I think I put a link to that Carleton University document on the wikipedia page, but someone unlinked it.
