The Best Personal Protection Device Available

Taser® International was born when the inventor and the Smith brothers, Rick and Tom, joined forces in the late 1960s. TASER technology was developed by a research scientist at NASA. His goal was to provide non-lethal protection for individuals not interested in possessing a firearm for personal protection. The decision by the Smiths was fueled by the shooting death of two high school friends who were killed.

Let’s take a look at two different types of electronic control devices, ECD.

TASERS®, provide long-distance protection and are not considered a firearm and do not require a permit to possess. Using a replaceable TASER® cartridge fired by a compressed type of inert gas (nitrogen), a TASER fires a pair of barbed projectiles toward the attacker. The projectiles are attached to highly conductive, insulated wires coming from the hand-held device. The wires provide a 30 second 50,000 volt shock to the attacker at a distance up to 15 feet.

TASERS® are capable of delivering stopping power through up to two inches of cumulative clothing. TASERS® can also be used in close combat situations by providing drive stuns to assailants. Even after the projectiles have been fired, the TASER® C2 can be used at close quarters. It can also deliver a debilitating jolt without having the projectile cartridge installed. The backup capability seriously elevates the usefulness and diversity of the device. That means that with a single weapon, you have the advantage of both a direct contact stun gun and a distance conscious TASER&reg.

TASER® International has invented a product that combines the advantage of keeping potential attackers at a distance and provides close quarters defense. The TASER® C2, as in regular TASERs, fires its darts up to 15 feet, providing anyone with the ability to protect oneself and family members from danger.

Second, let’s look at stun guns. These non-lethal weapons do not fire any sort of projectile. While they come in a variety of shapes and sizes the common factor they have with each other is the fact that they all must make contact with the assailant to be effective. This means the potential of harm to the victim is much greater than if you were firing a TASER&reg.

Stun guns are a very effective alternative to their more expensive TASER® counterpart. Stun guns produce an effective shock reducing the attacker ability to stand or direct his muscles. The jolt of a 50,000 volt surge through his body interrupts the attacker's ability to control his muscles. This gives you time to react, call for help, or run away to a safe place.

The advantage of these self defense options provides the time needed to defuse or escape a dangerous situation. Additionally, the TASER® C2 comes in a variety of colors, is designed not to resemble a self defense tool, the Lithium Power Magazine is good for at least 50 applications. The TASER® C2 requires a felony background check for activation and comes with everything needed to start using it immediately for protection. The TASER® C2 also has a lifetime replacement guarantee. Should you ever have to use it to protect yourself or a loved one, TASER® International will replace the unit free of charge with a copy of a police report of the incident. The TASER® C2 has become the choice of thousands for personal protection.
