Meanwhile, Xtreme Alternative Defense Systems (XADS), based in Anderson,
Indiana, will be one of the first companies to market another type of

conducting channel. It will also interfere with electronic ignition systems
and stop vehicles.

"We will be able to fire a stream of electricity like water out of a hose
at one or many targets in a single sweep," claims XADS president Peter
Bitar.
