It’s not the volts, it’s the amps that kill you. How many amps does an eel generate?

The 30 amps I said before was for an electric ray.

I read an eel puts out one amp.

The electric organs are very similar and I’m not sure why the discrepancy.

“How many amps does an eel generate?”

And how do they do it...that’s what my intellectual curiosity wants to know.

See #12 link for smaller eel.

One amp at 500v.
