Technology Information

A TASER is one of a few non-lethal weapons that are increasingly being used in place of weapons that deliver lethal force because they can be used to end disruptive or dangerous situations without causing permanent injury or death. A Taser is a weapon that shocks an attacker from a distance without you needing to be in direct contact. The weapon uses an electric current that causes the person to temporarily lose control over their muscles. This paralyzes the muscles briefly, an effect called neuromuscular incapacitation. These non-lethal weapons are often used by the police during altercations to prevent injury.

To deliver the electroshock effect to the intended target, the TASER works differently than a stun gun. A Taser allows you to keep your distance from an assailant; it shoots the electrodes out and away, making it unnecssary to maintain contact with the attacker’s skin. A charge of pressurized nitrogen shoots two electrodes from the Taser. It propels them the same way that a paint gun discharges paint pellets. After the electrodes have been shot, the air cartridge has to be replaced. The new cartridge posesses a new pair of electrodes for the next time the Taser is used.

The electrodes attach to the clothing of the target and deliver the electroshock. They remain attached to the main device with small wires that deliver the current. The electrodes are designed to help them to attach to clothing more efficiently. This keeps them in place long enough to deliver the current.

Once the current is delivered, the effects of the TASER are temporary. The intended use is to end a conflict rather than to cause any injury or ongoing incapacitation in the assailant.

Many police departments arm their officers with TASERS because they can subdue an assailant quickly when the use of deadly force is not warranted. Police Taser models are equipped additional equipment, like laser sights, that police can use during disturbances. Stun Guns are also carried for security. Though they aren’t legal in all areas, they serve as an alternative personal protection weapon to stun guns and pepper spray. Make sure you check your local laws before buying.
