Several Tesla Cybertruck Owners Consider Electrifying The Truck’s Body to Stop Vandals – They Add, “We Can Have an Electric Fence for Our Dogs & Trespassers, Why Not Our Cybertruck?”

Ben, a Cybertruck owner from California, says he’s curious whether it would be possible to electrify the Cybertruck's body to shock would-be vandals.

This might seem like a desperate measure in response to all the attacks that Tesla owners have faced recently.

However, Ben’s deterrence measure has gotten some support from the Cybertruck community.

Ben shared his unorthodox vandalism deterrence strategy on the Cybertruck Owners Club forum.

He writes…

“Vandalism Prevention with Electrified Body?

Since the panels are isolated, could we theoretically electrify them to cause a mild shock…

I am just brainstorming, but the videos would be great.”

Here, Ben is pondering whether such a device could be built and, if so, how entertaining videos of potential vandals getting zapped by a Cybertruck would be.

As Ben says, he is “just brainstorming.”

However, in response to Ben’s post, Cybertruck Wraps, a company that primarily focuses on providing wrap services to Cybertruck owners, created a fictional ad for a product that will electrify the Cybertruck’s body called the “Zap-O-Tron 8000!”

Cybertruck Wraps describes the fictional product writing…

“Introducing the “Zap-O-Tron 8000” for the Cybertruck: Because Some People Need a Shocking Reminder”

Cybertruck Wraps continues to describe the product writing…

“Do you find yourself worrying about petty vandals, window smashers, or those who think your futuristic Cybertruck is just too shiny to leave unscathed? Are you tired of scraping off inappropriate graffiti from your stainless steel panels? Then get ready to experience a jolt of pure comedic justice with our new and improved Zap-O-Tron 8000!

What Is It? The Zap-O-Tron 8000 is a totally over-the-top (and entirely fictional) security solution that transforms your Cybertruck’s panels into a high-voltage electric fence—perfect for when Sentry Mode just isn’t intimidating enough. That’s right: while your Cybertruck stands guard like a stainless-steel sentinel, our device will supercharge its exterior with up to 8,000 volts of raw, unbridled electricity.

How Does It Work?

1. Plug & Play – Securely install the Zap-O-Tron 8000 module under the Cybertruck’s steel shell (comes with 300 pages of disclaimers).
2. Enable Sentry Mode – Switch on Sentry Mode from the comfort of your phone, or just tap the big, ominous red button on your dash labeled “ZAP.”
3. Sit Back & Relax – While you sip a latte in your local coffee shop, rest assured that the next person who tries to key your priceless polygon-on-wheels is in for the shock of their lifetime—literally.

Why Choose the Zap-O-Tron 8000?

• Unforgettable Deterrent: The only thing more memorable than your Cybertruck’s radical design will be that tingly sensation your would-be vandal experiences.
• The Perfect Meme Generator: Any trespasser’s awkward jolt dance can be captured by your cameras. Viral internet fame awaits you.
• Prevents Window Breakages: Because if they can’t get near the window without being turned into a human plasma ball, they definitely can’t smash it.

Side Effects May Include:

• Lawsuits from outraged vandals. (“Your Honor, it was just a tiny scratch!”)
• Overblown headlines you can brag about at dinner parties: “Tesla Owner Zaps Thief into Next Tuesday!”
• Elon Musk spontaneously tweeting about you. You’ll never know if it’s sarcasm or praise, but it’ll be a story to share.

Disclaimer:

• The Zap-O-Tron 8000 is satirically recommended for comedic effect only. Actual attempts to electrify your vehicle may result in legal trouble, moral dilemmas, angry neighbors, or unexplainable scorch marks on your driveway. Any resemblances to real-life shock devices are purely coincidental.
• We are not responsible if the person attempting to damage your Cybertruck also gains superpowers and becomes your lifelong arch-nemesis.

So if you’re looking to really leave an impression—like, “8,000-volt” kind of impression—on any misguided vandal who dares cross your Cyber-fortress, look no further than Zap-O-Tron 8000. Give them something to talk about for the rest of their static-haired days!

Zap-O-Tron 8000: Because nothing says “Hands off my ride” like a bolt of comedic lightning.”

Currently, this is merely a comedic take on such a product, however, looking at the comments, frustrated Cybertruck owners say they would be interested in installing some kind of electric shock device to deter vandals.

A fellow Cybertruck owner responds to the fictional ad writing…

“COOL! Take my money! Where can I buy this?”

A fellow Cybertruck owner who goes by the username “Baldyloxx” seconds this sentiment writing…

“I actually think this has legs…

if I can have an electric fence for my dog and trespassers, why not for my Cubertruck?

I would buy it...

no one should be touching my property…”

However, the original brains behind the Zapo-O-Trop 8000 push back and try to point out some of the safety implications of actually shipping a product that electrifies the Cybertruck’s body.

Cybertruck Wraps writes…

“Yeah, but what about innocent children? I, too, want this to be real, but there are too many liabilities for this to be real.

I guess if you had “danger electric shock” stickers everywhere to warn people. Might have to leave this one to the YouTube DIY build or WhistlinDiesel”

However, in response, Baldyloxx pushes back, writing…

“Parents need to take accountability for their children… this is the root of the problem we face now.

innocent children touch the fence also… once

I’m not saying the zap needs to be lethal; just needs to teach them fast.

let’s be rational…”
