Well, laser take a lot of power. I have an online friend who, back in the 1980s, made a combo “laser/taser” where the laser would ionize the air and the electricity would travel down the path. He zapped groundhogs unconscious with it and you only had a few shots when powered by a car battery. Unless you want to lug around a half dozen car batteries, portable lasers are a long way away.

That’s very cool. I hope he’s still working on it.
Somebody mentioned “Looping Semi-Conductors” and “High Volume Fast Charging Capacitors” earlier. It might solve his problem.
