Which Is The Difference Between A Stun Gun And A Taser?
When choosing a Self Defense product, you have many choices. Some of the best, non-lethal choices are stun guns and Tasers. Both of them are effective in stopping someone from attacking you, and they have their pros and con’s. While they are similar products, in reality, they are quite different. Stun Guns and Tasers are designed to send a charge of high voltage, low amperage electricity into a person’s body through the skin, to disrupt their central nervous system. The electricity will affect the ability of a person to function like they normally would; you loose complete control of your body, and you usually fall to the ground, unable to move. The Taser goes one better, in addition to the electricity, it uses something called Shaped Pulse Technology, which is a sophisticated pulse wave that initially uses a high voltage when it penetrate barriers such as clothing followed by a series of lower voltage pulses that causes involuntary muscle contractions and a resulting sense of vertigo.
