tbh i see that weapon used against security cameras and other such devices

instead of people

>aiming molotows out of peoples hands

and stuff like that

*aims laser at paper factory*

and yes @transience didn't that hit in Cuba aswell?

🤔

iirc yes

That was chink electronics

And unless the chinks are at least 4 gens ahead of everyone else in terms of battery tech they don't have shit anywhere near what they are claiming

It weighs as much as a fully loaded ak

I think there's a lot of battery power in that sucker

it says 1000 shots at 2 second bursts

i wonder how long it takes to charge each

Fully loaded ak is like 6 pounds

Thats nothing

Loaded is 4.8kg

An 18650 is 3000mAh or so and weighs 45gm

That's a lot of power my man

`It can fire more than 1,000 “shots”, each lasting no more than two seconds.`

i'm confused by the wording

does that mean each shot can be 2 seconds

And it would explode in high discharge applications unless a good chunk of that was heat mitigation

or 1000 shots maximum at shortest duration

I thought my google was sperging out with dates at first https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thai_calendar

Let's talk light guns and laser weapons that cause cancer in <#189467888657235970> thanks

turns out, thai years are 543 years ahead

I think it fires for two seconds, then charges.

@transience it does that on their windows too

taiwan has minguo years (years since the founding of republic of china) but i think google still uses gregorian calendar, which seems used in day to day life anyway

it's just official stuff and receipts that seem to use minguo years

How backwards, someone needs to come by again and introduce the year of our lord to the heathens

minguo is usually only used for government stuff

because it was mandated a long time ago and now it's a matter of legacy support in terms of records keeping

modern businesses will use western dating

some things like expiration dates are still in minguo

although it varies, some use it and some don't
