Michelle Lindor's L-Rad Experience
- Michelle Lindor experienced intense, painful sound from an L-Rad at a protest that caused lasting ear ringing and discomfort.
- She fought through the pain to stay at the protest but suffered symptoms lasting nearly a week afterward.
How L-Rads Work
- The L-Rad is a device that focuses sound in a narrow beam, functioning both as a loudspeaker and a weapon.
- Its deterrent tone is a loud, focused sound designed to cause discomfort, unlike regular loudspeakers that scatter sound broadly.
L-Rads' Original Military Use
- L-Rads were originally designed for military communication over long distances at sea.
- They can transmit messages clearly over two miles, useful for naval and emergency situations like wildfires or disaster evacuations.
