  I can't help but notice though is how the voltage claims of commercial stun gun manufacturers has reached ludicrous levels and was wondering if anyone else has noticed this trend? 50 kV, 100 kV, 200 kV, 500 kV, 1 MV, 5MV, and now - 49 MV? Just how much voltage does it take to "stun" someone, anyway? :-D

Safely take out three zeros of these MV values. These devices at most reach 50 kV, to be optimistic.
