Ok. So, it's going to have a battery (9v) and capacitor.
Better be a solid-state cap, because if someone hooks you up with a hand held taser, you'll blow a electrolytic cap.
Second, isn't going to work if the guy stabs you through it. You'll end up shorting through yourself.
Third, if he's wearing a jacket and gloves, and clubs you upside the head with a billy-club, the jacket isn't going to be of much use.
Fourth, it would have to be very low-voltage to be "rain proof". At 80kv, electricty can jump over 3cm through dry air -- even further through humid air. It would have to have a deformable mesh conductor grid to protect from water, and your purse strap over your shoulder would negate that.
But that doesn't make it completely worthless. What you do is heave that stupid 9v battery into a smoke detector, and put a bang-stick (double-ought) up those retarded sleeves. When the little bastard grabs you, you stuff him in the gut with the bang-stick. Problem solved, go home and sleep with a pistol under your pillow.
