Winding down this summer season is a shocking water gun from Russia. A real weapons manufacturer decided that they should dabble with creating a water gun that shoots a stream of water with an electric flow. Although the now the device isn’t making a splash right away, the company is hoping that their electrical super soaker will fire 2 to 7 lbs. of water at a distance of 17 feet. Zaaaaaaap!

    but the water will break into water droplets win midair…causing a break in the circuit…go watch mythbusters….

  2. John is correct. When in midair, the water droplets separate. Would be cool if it worked though.

  3. Myke says:

    Agreed. But maybe at close range it will work?

    Mythbusters were wrong, water under pressure can stay in a solid stream,
    the pissing on the fence myth had to be redone because the first show they just let piss fall from gravity, but when you go for a piss, you are actually pushing it out instead of just letting it fallout o you.

    I dont know what kind of sniper water fights youv been having, but the ones I had when i was a kid, we were about 6 feet away from each other at max.

    Couldn’t it put a static charge on them?

  6. Perhaps you should all go read the article. The water isn’t getting charged to electrocute people, it’s being charged to create high pressure. The idea is to have the same force as a less-than-lethal bean bag weapon, without the same high risk of breaking bones.

    If the specs are true, it’s quite an impressive water gun.
