"watts" is a measurement of resistance, 100 watt lightbulb means 15amp/120v (household service) are going to be impeded 100watts (its a calculation that isn't important, but i just happened to have the formula tattooed on myself) after passing through the filament of said lightbulb.

e: so a million watt taser means not much shock (depending on the input)


Oh so Just cuz it said 1,000,000 watts on it doesn't mean it was strong?

means the resistance is strong, basically means it takes alot of volts or amps to push the current through the windings of the taser. If it was battery powered i doubt it was very strong at all, like 15volts 0 amps or so. 1 amp can kill you so they would need to reduce the amperage to at least .009a to make it "safe", which is probably why it has such a high resistance.

Oh okay makes since but still sucked because he did it so much and it was always unexpected for the most part

a 15v shock still sucks, i run 24v control wires and they still sting when they getchya. my teacher says most people cant tell the difference after about 210v, my 10 thousand volt shock was only minorly worse than sticking a fork in a lightsocket and lightsockets are only 125v
