Stuncuffs

Canon Legends version → Linked from 321 articles

Stuncuffs, also known as electronic binders, binder cuffs, binders, manacles, or shackles, were devices designed to restrict the movement of an individual's limbs, primarily their hands. Many versions were designed with the ability to shock the wearer if they struggled, particularly versions intended to be used on Force users. Some stormtroopers carried stuncuffs in case they needed to conduct arrests.
