About TASER Stun Guns: How Does a Taser Work?

TASER stun guns use electrical currents to shut down muscle function temporarily. They come in all sizes and shapes and include many optional features, such as laser light aims, reloadable cartridges, and apparel holsters. They’re non-lethal and dependable — and far more affordable than you think.

Why TASERs Are So Popular

1 Effective Defense From a Distance

Other self-defense weapons, such as contact stun guns, may require getting in close quarters with an assailant. TASERs allow you to incapacitate an attacker from up to 10 or 15 feet away — no close range required.

10–15 foot stand-off distance
No close contact needed

2 Easy-to-Load Cartridges

TASER cartridges are easy to load and quick to eject. If you miss your target on the first try, you can quickly replace the cartridge and shoot a second set of barbs at your assailant.

Fast cartridge reload
Second shot ready in seconds

3 Long Cycle Discharge

TASERs discharge electrodes for up to 10 seconds — particularly helpful for women, as the extended cycle is debilitating enough to ensure ample time to call for help and run after the cycle ends.

4 Superior Voltage

On average, a TASER emits about 50,000 volts. When making contact with the body, this is much less — the TASER 7 emits less than 2,000 volts on contact, while the TASER X1 emits 1,400–2,520 volts on contact.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a TASER?

A TASER, sometimes called a CEW (Conducted Energy Weapon), is a type of electric shock weapon, or stun gun, that can disable a target temporarily. This is done using two darts fired at a distance and connected to shielded copper wires, which pass electricity from the gun to the target when the trigger is pulled. Originally most notable in police departments, TASERs are now commonly found in homes for personal protection.

Can a TASER kill you?

TASERs have minimal risk of death. They have been used by law enforcement agencies for many years as a first-choice use of force in a confrontation, given they are considered non-lethal. When someone is tased, they experience neuromuscular incapacitation — a temporary state of immobilization caused by muscle contractions. This rarely causes serious injury.

How long does a TASER incapacitate someone?

A TASER’s electrical pulses typically last for five seconds, and the incapacitation only lasts as long as the discharge is applied. Some TASERs have a “drive stun” capability, which means the device can be held against the target without firing the projectiles.

Are TASER guns legal?

Yes, TASERs are legal to own and carry in most states. Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Mexico, West Virginia, and Wisconsin require a license for ownership. TASERs are not legal to own and carry in Hawaii and Rhode Island.

How much do TASERs cost?

A TASER device can cost $50 to over $1,000, depending on style and type. Explore the various TASER models at The Home Security Superstore from TASER International, and holster options from Blackhawk! and Safariland.
