      I thought they meant that the rapid high current output of lead batteries was better for torture.

        12 volts doesn’t really hurt much is my understanding. I think movies exaggerate it. It tracks because people literally lick 9 volt batteries to test them. The 120 volts AC in the wall would be more useful for that.
