Most Powerful Stun Gun - Benefits of Owning One
As you can see by browsing the internet for a
stun gun, there are many different shapes, sizes
and power output you can choose from. The sole
purpose of any stun gun is to buy you some time
in order to find safety if an assailant were to
choose you for his next prey. You, nor I, want
to be involved in that kind of situation and we
should be willing to do whatever it takes to
protect ourselves and our loved ones from that
kind of violent behavior.
So you ask, what is the best stun gun to have?
Everyone has a different opinion but one thing
remains a fact, the more powerful the stun gun
the more effective it is taking down an
assailant. All stun guns have high voltage and
low amperage, some being stronger than others.
This means that stun guns are a very effective
non-lethal means of self defense. Have you ever
wondered if you could get shocked while using a
stun gun on an attacker if he were touching you?
Dont worry, it will never happen. That is the
beauty of high voltage and low amperage.
Household electrical current is the opposite with
low voltage (around 220) and high amperage
(between 100 & 200 amps). That is what can
seriously hurt someone. The amperage is the key
factor to how severe you could get hurt.
Typically, most stun guns work in the 7 to 14 amp
range and household amperage is 28 times stronger
than that. Just to give you an example of high
voltage and low amperage. I know you have been
shocked when touching a door knob or something
metal. A shock like this has about 25,000 volts.
Enough to get your attention but doesnt hurt.
What happens when an attacker or an assailant is
touched with a stun gun? First, I want to
explain how the stun gun works. The stun gun
pulsates at a rapid rate. When the attacker is
touched by the stun gun, the stun guns energy is
dumped into the attackers body, the stun gun
interrupts the neurological signal the brain
sends to the muscles. The energy makes the
muscles work in a high rapid rate depleting the
muscles of all blood sugars and turn them into
Lactic acid. This affect makes the assailant
very weak, unstable and disoriented. A ½ second
contact will cause the attackers muscles to
contract and react by jumping back. A 3 to 5
second contact with the most powerful stun gun
will put even the most aggressive attackers on
his knees preventing him from any further
aggressive behavior. Even the weaker stun guns
do a good job of stopping an attacker, but I
believe a 950,000 to 1,000,000 (or more) volt
stun gun will be more effective in taking him
down and giving you more time to find safety.
As we all know, there are many uses for a stun
gun but I would like to let you know why you
should own a stun gun. We all have moments where
we fear that something bad could happen to us or
to someone we love. Few reasons could be you
have a spouse you care very much for, you have
young children and fear them of getting hurt if a
burglar were to break into your home or pick you
as their next victim on your next outing to the
mall with your child, you travel a lot and want
the added peace of mind or you have a daughter or
son starting to date or go off to college and you
want them to be safe knowing you are not there to
protect them. There are many different reasons
for owning a stun gun so why not make the move
and give the gift of safety and security as well
as give you the peace of mind you need and want.
