The Pavlok bracelet gives users a kind of “fine” in the form of an electric shock with an average voltage of 350 volts every time they go beyond what is permitted, writes The Daily Mail.

On the the official website The bracelet voltage is indicated as 50-450 volts, the current is 4 mA. Despite tens and hundreds of volts, everything is quite harmless (for example, in the arc of a standard stun gun for self-defense there are tens of thousands of volts, but it does not kill a person). The determining value for safety is the current strength. According to Wikipedia, the minimum perceptible AC current is about 0,6-1,5 mA and 5-7 mA DC. An alternating current of 100 mA and above is considered lethal, and a direct current of 300 mA and above is considered lethal.

Amazon states that the shock feels comparable to touching an "electrified doorknob" but does not recommend its use for children, pets, pregnant women, people with heart disease or pacemakers, or anyone with a history of problems. health problems caused by a weak electrical stimulus. In any case, it is recommended to consult a doctor before use.

The company claims that “within 3-5 days” you will begin to notice that your addiction will decrease significantly if it does not disappear completely. The point is to fix and fix the unpleasant sensation associated with the bad habit, so that the brain automatically begins to perceive this process as something that it does not want.

The charge is designed for 150 strikes, so it all depends on how vigorously you take to break the rules.

Inventor Manish Sethi says that, despite the fact that this electric shock cannot be compared to the impact of a stun gun, it is sufficiently noticeable that you jump a little or at least react.

The idea was born as a result of Sethi’s own dependence on social networks.

“None of my many fitness trackers motivated me at all. I thought, "Why are so many devices tracking what I'm doing but not changing what I'm doing?" That’s how the bracelet came about.”
