Lol, in case you missed it, the weapon uses microwaves, the same as in your microwave oven. You know what happens when you put tin foil in the microwave....

I read an article on the history of the cooking microwave. Seems after WWII they had all sorts of radars laying around, and tried to figure out a way to sell them. Modified them to use to heat food. The first microwave ovens were large and bulky. But could cook an entire roast in something like 20 seconds!
