Non-Lethal Electric Ray Wand Development
Budget: €8 – €1,500 EUR
Project Description: Non-Lethal Electric Ray Wand for LDS
Project Objective: We aim to develop a non-lethal electric ray wand for the LDS organization, capable of emitting a visible electric ray (plasma arc) that can deliver controlled electric shocks or minor burns, without causing permanent or life-threatening damage. The wand will be used as a tactical defense tool and must include multiple safety measures to ensure controlled, ethical use.
The key is to create a device that delivers an electric ray powerful enough to incapacitate or deter, while keeping the voltage and current low enough to prevent serious harm.
Technical Specifications for the Electric Ray Wand
1. High Voltage Power Supply (Electric Arc Generator):
Component: High-voltage arc generator (12V or higher).
Purpose: To generate a visible electric arc between two electrodes that can produce a controlled electric shock. The electric ray will have a plasma-like appearance, capable of delivering minor burns or shocks.
Specifications:
12V electric arc generator with low current output (less than 10 mA) to ensure non-lethal performance.
Estimated Price:
USD: $35 - $85
EUR: €30 - €75
GBP: £25 - £65
Where to Buy: AliExpress, Amazon, eBay.
2. Tungsten or Copper Electrodes:
Component: Tungsten or copper electrodes.
Purpose: These electrodes will conduct the electrical discharge and direct the plasma arc towards the target. Tungsten is ideal due to its heat resistance.
Specifications:
Tungsten electrodes or copper alternatives, resistant to high temperatures.
Estimated Price:
USD: $6 - $18 (for a set of electrodes).
EUR: €5 - €16
GBP: £4 - £14
Where to Buy: AliExpress, eBay, Electronic supply stores.
3. High-Capacity Capacitor:
Component: High-capacity capacitor (470 uF or higher, 400V).
Purpose: Stores the energy that will be discharged through the electrodes, generating the electric arc. The capacitor will control how much energy is released to ensure the shock is not lethal.
Specifications:
Capacitor that can safely release controlled bursts of electricity to generate the electric ray.
Estimated Price:
USD: $12 - $22
EUR: €10 - €20
GBP: £8 - £18
Where to Buy: Mouser Electronics, Digi-Key, RS Components.
4. Rechargeable High-Voltage Battery:
Component: Rechargeable high-voltage battery, such as a 12V lithium-ion battery.
Purpose: To power the electric arc generator and ensure enough voltage for continuous operation. It should be compact to maintain the wand’s portability.
Specifications:
12V lithium-ion battery (Panasonic NCR18650B or similar, 3.7V, 3400mAh) with high capacity.
Estimated Price:
USD: $15 - $25
EUR: €13 - €22
GBP: £10 - £20
Where to Buy: AliExpress, Amazon, eBay.
5. Voltage Controller:
Component: Adjustable voltage controller.
Purpose: To regulate the voltage output, ensuring the electric ray delivers controlled shocks without exceeding a safe level. The controller will limit the current to below 10 mA to ensure non-lethal performance.
Specifications:
Adjustable voltage controller to fine-tune the strength of the electric ray.
Estimated Price:
USD: $25 - $55
EUR: €22 - €50
GBP: £18 - £45
Where to Buy: Mouser Electronics, AliExpress, eBay.
6. Safety System (Safety Switch and Proximity Sensor):
Component: Safety switch and proximity sensor.
Purpose: To prevent accidental activation of the wand. The safety switch ensures the wand is only active when intended, and the proximity sensor ensures the electric ray is not fired too close to the user or other objects.
Specifications:
Safety switch to prevent accidental activation and a proximity sensor to detect safe firing distance.
Estimated Price:
USD: $12 - $20
EUR: €10 - €18
GBP: £8 - £16
Where to Buy: Amazon, AliExpress, eBay.
7. Heat Dissipation System:
Component: Aluminum heat sink or mini cooling fan.
Purpose: The electric arc generator and capacitor will produce heat during operation. A heat sink or small fan will dissipate excess heat, preventing the wand from overheating.
Specifications:
Aluminum heat sink or cooling fan to maintain safe operating temperature.
Estimated Price:
USD: $7 - $15
EUR: €6 - €13
GBP: £5 - £12
Where to Buy: AliExpress, Amazon, eBay.
8. Wand Casing (Heat-Resistant Material):
Component: Heat-resistant wand casing, made of aluminum or carbon fiber.
Purpose: The casing must protect the internal components from external damage and ensure the wand remains cool to the touch. Materials like aluminum or carbon fiber are recommended for their durability and heat resistance.
Specifications:
Durable, lightweight material such as aluminum or carbon fiber.
Estimated Price:
USD: $25 - $50
EUR: €22 - €45
GBP: £18 - £40
Where to Buy: AliExpress, eBay, Engineering supply stores.
Functionality and Design Features:
Visible Electric Ray:
The electric arc generator will produce a visible ray between the electrodes, creating a plasma-like discharge that resembles an energy beam.
Non-Lethal Electric Shock:
The ray will deliver a controlled electric shock designed to incapacitate or deter an individual without causing serious harm. The current will be limited to under 10 mA, making it non-lethal but capable of delivering minor burns or shock sensations.
Timed Discharge:
The wand will be designed to limit the duration of the electric ray to 1-2 seconds per activation, ensuring the user has control over the shock’s intensity and duration. This will help prevent over-exposure and minimize the risk of burns.
Heat Management:
The wand will include heat dissipation features such as an aluminum heat sink or a cooling fan to manage any excess heat generated by the arc generator and capacitor.
Safety Controls:
A safety switch and proximity sensor will prevent accidental discharge and ensure that the wand only activates when the target is at a safe distance.
Indicator Lights:
LED indicators will show the operational status of the wand, with green for ready and red for warning or overload.

Final Notes: This electric ray wand must be designed with safety as the top priority. The non-lethal electric discharge should be powerful enough to deter or incapacitate a target, but without causing permanent harm. The shock intensity must be carefully regulated to ensure that it does not exceed safe limits.
