The idea was to create a Taser system that could be effective in the intermediate range (30-100 feet) where a regular handheld Taser could not reach, but from which thrown projectiles could still be a viable threat against someone.
Ultimately, the project was a commercial failure, primarily because of the cost of the cartridges. At something like $125 each, they were nearly five times the cost of regular Taser ammunition.
That’s uh, not the formula for kinetic energy but yes I agree these seem like a good medium range alternative hahah
I mean assuming a civilized nation where law enforcement is not free to murder for fun. Here in the States we just use Glocks like multi tools
Fixed it, I had spliced together the formulas for momentum an KE in my head.
