A stun gun taser is a relatively inexpensive, convenient and powerful way to ward off attackers. The sight and sound of a stun gun taser going off is usually enough to scare an attacker away. Stun gun tasers repel your attacker with high voltage yet low amperage shock. You cannot be shocked even if you are touching the attacker.
A stun gun taser looks like a pistol but uses compressed air to fire two darts that trail electric cable back to the handset. When the darts strike, a five-second 50,000-volt charge is released down the cable, causing the suspect's muscles to contract uncontrollably. Electrical signals -Taser waves or T-Waves - overpower the body's normal electrical signals, temporarily confusing the nervous system. A laser helps target the suspect and the Taser works at ranges up to 21 feet.
Stun gun tasers come in compact sizes for your convenience and usually have safety switches and wrist straps. You need to supply batteries strong enough to power your device.
Get familiar with your stun gun taser before you might need to use it on an assailant. Test it in a safe environment and learn how to press the switch that will fire the voltage across the probes, making sure you don't get a shock. It's always recommended that you be prepared while walking through dangerous places like parking lots at night or even walking your dog in your local area. Have your stun gun out and ready.
If you are confronted or assaulted, the best points of contact to go for are the upper hip, upper shoulders or rib cage. All of these areas have more nerve endings than other spots on the body but other targets also will stop your attacker. Keep the stun gun taser going as long as it takes to incapacitate the assailant so that you can safely escape (usually 1-5 seconds, depending on the voltage).
