EEL Non-Lethal Weapon
Product Design: EEL Non-Lethal Weapon
The problemTo design a better non-lethal weapon. Create a better tool to solve the key problem faced by law enforcement agencies; Shooting to stop, not shooting to kill or injure.
The solutionUse a high pressure electrified liquid jet: 'EEL' is a non-lethal alternative marketed to organizations such as the civil police, security forces and airline police. It offers an extended stun range (up to 50 meters) over other similar products available on the market. Also this is not a single-use weapon and offers repeat fire - unlike the nearest commercially available rival, the Taser.
- Innovative low-tech liquid-based solution
- Repeat firing capability
- Cost-effective to manufacture
- Greatly improved firing range (50m)
- Enhanced safety for officer and suspect
The 55,000 volt stun-charge is generated via a alternating current from a common nickel cadmium 6 volt rechargeable battery
How does the stun charge work?The stun charge instantly coverts the blood sugar in the suspects body to lactic acid, simulating the effects of major physical exertion resulting in severe muscle fatigue and temporary immobility.
