Neuronic whip

From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.

The neuronic whip was a particularly cruel creation of TholCorp, the purpose of which was to send powerful electrical charges into a being's nerve cells. It was a long, flexible cable, connected to a power pack in a handle that delivered a stunning jolt on contact. Unlike a typical leather whip, the heavy cable could crack bones and break flesh, although death outcome was extremely unlikely. It was capable of causing a great deal of pain and trauma.

The neuronic whips were very popular amonst slavers. They were extensively used by the Mytaranor Slaving Council after their leader Talas Piran found a cache of them on a hidden compartment of the recently acquired ship, the Vanquisher.^[2]
