Think zip ties that are structurally stronger.
Zip ties themselves are easily circumvented with a razor. If stronger, how much stronger? Do you need heavy-duty bolt cutters to get them off?
UV light to melt the cuffs.
Wouldn't a UV light source then be an easily-producible key?
- michaelbuckbee 14y agoYou don't even need a razor, in the video below a teenage girl is able to pop them off her wrists with applied force: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfmOD5jImOs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfmOD5jImOs
- maxerickson 14y agoLaw enforcement already use zip ties that are quite a bit more robust looking than the ones in that video. And they do nasty things like putting your hands behind your back.

- eumenides1 14y agoI was thinking like 3/4 to 1/2 inch tubes of solid plastic. So maybe heavy-duty bolt cutters would be a good idea to get them off. The crux of the idea is that only way to get the cuffs off is to break the cuff with a specific brute force that requires a large unconcealable device. Even with the device, you still need time/space to use it (5-10 mins). So pretend that we would need a large UV lamp and 5 mins to melt through.
