Reminiscent of the early 1940's when a neighbor kid urinated on

an electric fence,Once.

Since exploding wire technology is employed to maximize energy density, but

is slow and cumbersome, why not a jet of electrolyte or metal to effect kilojoule-megajoule

energy discharge of capacitor banks?

For instance a pool of  Lithium Hydroxide Electrolyte, D2 Gas, or D2O on top  of a Cathode Pool of

Mercury with an insulation-sleeved Tungsten-Tipped Anode in a sealed chamber, triggered by

electro-hydraulic  actuation of a plunger-orifice device in the pool?
