8,000 volts will certainly be enough to arc a small distance through you, but what really does the damage in electrocution is not the voltage, but the amperage. Think of voltage as the force with which the current is pushing it's way though something, and amperage is how much current there actually is. If you have even as little as 5 or 10 amps running though that 8,000 volt current, it could certainly be lethal. Cattle prods are designed to operate at low amperage however, so it is unlikely that it would cause injury with a quick jolt.

∙ 10y agoCattle prods are intended to inflict minor electrical pain to large farm animals in order to control them, and they can cause significantly more pain in a person, though they are unlikely to physically injure the recipient of the jolt. . . unless you get bonked on the head with the heavy battery end or something.

∙ 14y agoNo, not really. The electric shock from a cattle prod isn't enough to kill a human, just to give a person a really nice shock.

Can you use a lamp as a cattle prod?
Yes and no. The wiring and metal parts of a lamp may be useful, but the rest of it may be an encumbrance. Also, you can't simply plug it into a wall and have a cattle prod without having a transformer. The key to making a cattle prod is high voltage and low amperage. The standard wall outlet will give you about 25 amps and only 120 volts. That needs to be fixed before you have a cattle prod.
