Talk:StunStrike

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tesla coils aren't directional weapons; they arc to the easiest to reach object. Using one at range would be stupid and pointless. If we're going to have conjecture on this page, then electrolasers would be a far better guess.Fdgfds 02:29, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

• An electrolaser creates two plasma channels, resulting in two visible electrical arcs, not the many shown in the videos of this device from the manufacturer's website. The video shows a semi-random roughly conical discharge, which is consistent with a Tesla coil using a needle or similar for a terminal. The Tesla coil article includes a photograph of exactly that sort of discharge. I'm leaving the page as-is for the moment in the hope that someone with more expertise will set the record straight.
