You got to be kidding us. If you hooked up 220 volts to your vehicle and it electrocuted somebody you'd be up for manslaughter. I guess I've heard it all now.

Dave is correct , the thief would be injured ( probably dead ) and you'll be in jail !

Besides being just plain wrong, and possibly going to jail for manslaughter or worse, there are easier ways to catch a thief...like a wildlife cam placed properly (they detect ANY movement where aimed and snap pics...proof positive for the law) and/or a burgler alarm wired so it cannot be disconnected/disarmed except by key/remote turning it off.
Also...would be a sad note if per se a family member or good friend got zapped accidently and hurt/killed...or even yourself (possibly drunk and forget the "alarm")...then where would you be? :banghead:
