Commercial stun-guns are modified and hidden in ordinary objects, as counter-measure to unlawful search and seizure.
Positive points: a) possible using off-the-shelf components
Negative points: a) battery life/maintenance issues. b) likely to cause much concern if scanned c) backfire and collateral
damage issues d) unusual approach invites similarly creative response from careerist prosecutors.

We could have great fun taking only the positive points and negative points, and coming up with new inventions that they could apply to. |

Agreed. Using unusual off-the-shelf components is
likely to backfire and invite a seizure response in
careerist prosecutors. |

Google is not your friend. [marked-for-deletion] cellphone tasers are commercially available: widely known to exist. |

I don't get how this is an "improvized device;" it seems
more like a disguised device. Disguised weapons are illegal
almost everywhere, making your "unlawful search and
seizure" (wtf?) a very legal S & S. Making or carrying one is
just begging to get arrested. |

Would these objects be hidden on ones person? Or within the belongings? I have devised a similar system for my belongings, protecting them from unlawful search by storing them in a tottering and precarious pile with old beverage containers on top, and the possibility of roaches leaping out and getting down those unlawful shirts and trousers. |

Just a "possibility", mom! |
