The microwave guns work on the same principle. It's like you just jumped into a really really hot hot tub. No damage, just a lot of pain.

If this is the case then what about someone on drugs. Often a 9mm isn't nearly enough someone already bent on attack and especially on drugs. If this is only as painful as jumping into a tub of ALMOST scalding water then the criminal could potentially get used to the pain. You can force yourself acclimate to an extremely hot temperature that isn't actually doing damage to your skin. This would HAVE to be hot enough to scald or it wouldn't be effective in my opinion. I would like to hear the specifics as to what temperature the water is raised to. I don't imagine anything less than damaging temperatures being about to stop an individual. Especially one on drugs or drunk as can be the case.
