The basic idea that man has a right to defend himself has been around since the beginning of time. Even back in Bible days, when people used to throw sticks and stones at each other, self-defense was one of those inalienable rights. Self-defense for women is especially important because they are targeted in violent acts 90% of the time. Personal self-defense and personal security are very important to them and to the men in their lives who love them.
When it comes to personal self-defense, many do not like the idea of using the lethal force of a handgun so they choose a nonlethal alternative-a self-defense product like stun guns or pepper sprays. A lot of people like pepper sprays but if you are in windy conditions, a pepper spray may not be much help.
Other people prefer stun guns. Detractors don’t like the idea of having to apply it physically to an assailant. And that is understandable. That is why I have always recommended, especially for personal self-defense, that women carry both a stun gun and a pepper spray.
The stun gun uses an electrical charge that comes out of the end of the product. The electricity basically short-circuits the muscular system by causing it to over work using all blood sugars in the body so the assailant has absolutely no energy left to do anything. The higher the voltage, the less time that you have to apply it to an assailant for it to be effective.
It used to be that a 1,000,000 volt stun gun was as powerful as you could get. But today a 4,000,000- 5,000,000 volt stun gun like the “hot shot” or “pretender” from Stun Master or the “elite” stun gun from Guard Dog are more the norm.
But there’s a new model out on the market today called the Touchdown Stun Gun Flashlight. It is 7.5 million volts in a package that’s only 6 1/2 ounces and 6 1/2 inches tall and 2 inches wide. It is fully rechargeable saving you money on batteries. It has the disable pin wrist strap that prevents use against you, should it be taken away by an assailant.
It has a rubberized armor coating that protects the unit and enables you to get a firm grip on the device. It also has a built-in LED flashlight and two levels of safety built-in: a safety switch and a stun activation button. It has a lifetime manufacturer’s warranty, which speaks to the quality of the product.
All in all it is the most powerful stun gun in the world today.
A test firing showing the electrical arcs flying back and forth and making an intimidating sound with a warning of “back off” may be enough to scare most attackers away.
