The most reliable partner an individual can use against the intentions of criminals is the taser. The stun gun is a non-lethal self defense weapon used to stun criminals or attackers. From the name itself, stun, which means to immobilize or shock someone. Surprising or stunning is the only way to escape and quickly call help out of the hands of the attackers.
Stun guns are classified as non-lethal because they are not designed to kill people. Unlike when you use bullet guns that can bring serious danger once they hit the attacker. There is a high chance that the attacker will die from being shot multiple times. Whereas when using the stun gun, the attacker will just be immobilized and after an hour or so, they will return to their normal state.
Being stunned by a taser is definitely not a good or pleasant experience. When you look up the definition of stunned, it simply means to shock, stupefied, and stunned. But these definitions alone aren’t enough to say what it really feels like to get pummeled by this powerful device.
No matter what the voltage of your stun gun is, the effects are the same. It only takes approximately 3-5 seconds for the attacker to drop to his knees once he is hit by the device. When you charge the device for ΒΌ second, the attacker will feel intense pain and muscle contractions. If you charge the stun gun for 1-2 seconds, the attacker will be stunned and may even fall to the ground. And a charge of more than 3 seconds, the attacker will become disoriented, lose balance and control, and even mental confusion. If you want to make sure the attacker doesn’t deal damage to you anymore, hold the device against the attacker’s body and charge it until they lie down on the ground.
When you see your attacker already immobilized, lost and off balance, immediately run and call for help. The main purpose of the stun gun is to penetrate the nervous system of the human body. Once the nervous system is disrupted, the communication between the brain and the different muscles in the body gets mixed up and thus leads to the effects mentioned above. Rest assured, it will not affect any other organs in the body, such as the heart.
However, the use of this type of security device has its own limitations. Like the device, it cannot be used for those people who are high or even those who are drunk. The reason for this is that drug addicts and alcoholics can easily overcome pain and the main effect of the stun gun is based on pain. Be very careful when using one against them. You must be prepared with other self defense devices or techniques.
It is important that you check the device before using it, otherwise you will only put yourself in great danger. Check if it is fully charged by turning on the device. Having a stun gun inside your pocket or bag wherever you go keeps you safe and secure.
