STUN GUNS use high voltage and low amperage to temporarily disable an attacker for several minutes. The stun gun does not rely on pain for results. The energy stored in the gun is dumped into the attacker’s muscles causing them to do a great deal of work rapidly. This rapid work cycle instantly depletes the attacker’s blood sugar by converting it to lactic acid. In short, he is unable to produce energy for his muscles, and his body is unable to function properly. The stun gun also interrupts the tiny neurological impulses that control and direct voluntary muscle movement. When the attacker’s neuromuscular system is overwhelmed and controlled by the stun gun he loses his balance. Should the attacker be touching you, the current will NOT pass to your body!
What is an AirTaser and a
STUN GUN?
An AirTaser is a hand held, non-lethal self-protection system. It uses compressed air to launch tiny barbs attached to 15 feet of wire. When the probes make contact with the assailant or their clothing, the AirTaser sends powerful electronic pulses (called T-Waves) through the wires which instantly incapacitates the assailant (or attacking animal) for 1 to 15 minutes. The T-Wave output simulates the electronic signals used by human nerves to communicate. Once inside the body, the T-Waves jam normal communication between the brain and body, regardless of size or resistance to pain.
A Stun Gun is a hand-held battery-operated electrical self-defense tool. It can put out an electrical shock of 45,000 to 250,000 volts, depending on the model. When touched to the body of an assailant, the electrical shock causes the person to lose control of their voluntary muscles and fall to the ground in a dazed or unconscious condition, allowing you enough time to get away.
PERSONAL SAFETY TIPS
