This is not new, however I don’t know if anyone noticed this. On JRC’s website they talk about the electrical shocks they use and the shock device. Not the JRC website that most are familiar with, there other website. Take a look at it if you have not yet http://www.effectivetreatment.org/ On there they have an article which goes into detail about there shock device http://www.effectivetreatment.org/remote.html. Doing some calculations from it I can see that it puts out 122.76 volts (13.4 k Ohms * 12.8mA) to 171.52 volts (3.1 k Ohms 39.6mA) and about 2.1955 to 4.8613 watts (volts * amps = watts) depending on skin resistance of the person who receives the shocks. Do note however those voltage and wattage calculations are just theorized from some of the information in there testing, and they did not mention actual voltage measurements from when they shocked the volunteers. This painful electric shock is administered for a period of 2 full seconds at a 25% duty cycle at 80 Hz.
But I digress. The main point is that in this article under “Safety Issues” it says, “A second effect, which has been noted at some time in about one third of our students, has been slight erythema and, in a few cases, a skin blister. We have found that these effects can be avoided by altering the location of the electrodes or by adjusting the duration or voltage of the device.” So there you have it, right from the horses mouth, it can cause skin blisters.
Just wanted to point this out.
