before we get started I want you to know the product I'm reviewing today is illegal in Hawaii Massachusetts New Jersey New York and Rhode Island but it's still pretty interesting let's get started on my channel I've talked a lot about protection for phones today we're gonna talk about personal protection using a stun gun case for your iPhone this particular case can protect your phone obviously it's also a power bank and it has seven million volts of stun gun protection which is pretty crazy so this particular case is the teal case and just out of the box it is super super thick and check out this warning this product can cause severe injury or potentially death read user manual for use never leave unattended around minors it's probably pretty important only use if you are in serious danger I like that they mentioned check your local laws before carrying a stun gun because these are illegal in several states like I mentioned earlier but like always on my channel we test a lot of different things and so we're gonna test out the features of this stun gun and then take it apart and see how it works comes with a screen protector and the case is detachable which is kind of cool I'll go ahead and slide my pristine condition iPhone 8 inside of this case and slip it into the housing and it should start charging so I press this button on the back twice and these LEDs lit up and now the phone itself is charging up here in the top corner so that part of this case actually works oh yeah and there is the stun gun that is pretty scared okay so in order to activate the stun gun part of it there's actually two safeguards so it first of all I have to flip this switch right here up and then I also have to slide these metal prongs out the top of the phone which then releases the 7 million volts of electricity through those two points one thing that I should mention is that when you do switch into taser mode it does stop charging your phone so you can't defend yourself physically Walter your phone at the same time no multitasking going on either zapping people or charging your phone you got to pick one or the other so even though that there is seven million volts pulsing through these two needle-like connections at the tip it's not the voltage that kills you there's not a whole lot of amperage flowing through with those volts so technically I should be fine zapping myself but remember this is illegal in quite a few states so let's see what happens I don't want to do this boy oh boy okay so I am in okay I'm gonna do this time so right now we are locked into taser mode with the safeguard the metal prongs are stuck up oh I could feel it like oh the way through my fingertips like it made my fingertips curl at the very end and I could feel it probably on getting goosebumps over my whole arm I could feel it all throughout this range right here that was so crazy okay let's not do that again no I vote we opened this thing up see what the external batteries like inside and see how these prongs of doom extrude from the case each time batteries and electric cars have been on my mind a lot lately after listening to a book on Elon Musk by Ashley Vance audible is kind of my way of productively filling my time while driving or traveling one of alongs quotes that stood out to me the most is if other people are putting in 40-hour work weeks and you're putting in 100 hour weeks then even if you are doing the same thing you will achieve in four months what it takes them a year to achieve it's pretty motivating stuff audible is one of my ways of motivating myself to become a better person audible is giving out a free audiobook with 30 day trial membership so if you don't know who Ilan is now would be a good time to check him out just go to

video so like I mentioned earlier this does have an external battery charger as well like it charges your phone while you're using it and is charged with a micro USB port that charges this battery right here which is a 3,800 milliamp hour and then there that goes into the proprietary lightning port that Apple uses with all their phones so I'm going to disconnect that proprietary lightning port so obviously a normal battery can't produce seven million volts so there has to be a couple other components inside of here that do that so a transformer can step up the voltage to that seven million we were talking about and all of that circuitry is probably inside of this box right here there also could be an oscillator that fluctuates the current and produces that buzzing noise you hear on the back and a capacitor which actually stores the electricity and releases it in that pulse pattern all of that happens inside of this box here while sending it out of the electrodes up at the top and the electrodes can slide in and out just like that it's a pretty sweet setup at risk of getting shocked again I vote we take apart this component because this is the part that most cell phone cases don't have but it looks like we can't get inside because it is a solid block of plastic I imagine this is where we stick the transformers the oscillator and the capacitors that allow the electrodes to zap someone so there is no taking this apart because it is a solid block of plastic overall this is a pretty interesting device I've never seen something quite like this that me know protects you physically as well as your electronics now as far as the damage it can inflict it was more of a I would say like a distraction for me getting zapped was a surreal experience and like you know I definitely don't want it to happen again but it wasn't like an immobilization thing like I was able to use my hand right afterward to be honest it was the sound that was mostly the deterrent that sound coming from the voltage off of these electrodes made me not want to come anywhere near those two points so that's what it would be the biggest deterrent if I was a thief and I was gonna go rob somebody just saying I'll leave a link for all this stuff down in the video description and make sure you check out audible for your free book it is a service that I use regularly audible.com slash jerry-rigged let me know if you want to get zapped by seven million volts down in the comments and thanks a ton for watching I'll see you around
