Whether you’re out in the wild or in the
city jungle, you’re probably always on the lookout for a personal protection
tip. Well, here’s one: Seeing a professional stun gun in your hands will make
anyone think twice about attacking you! Criminals know that the energy from the taser or stun gun will cause their muscles to fail briefly. The voltage zap
actually depletes the amount of sugar in the blood by converting it into lactic
acid. The attacker becomes unable to create energy and loses control of his
body. Cool huh?
Personal Protection Tip: Keep the Duration
Short
It’s okay to dry fire a stun gun as often
as you like. Just don't hold the trigger down for more than one second at a
time. In a personal protection situation, the tip of the prongs quickly
immobilize the attacker, but it’s okay to hold the trigger down for five seconds
or more — it won’t damage the unit. Just try to keep the duration short, since
an application of at least two seconds will cause most people to lose their
balance and fall down. And one more personal protection tip when firing a stun
gun: Keep fresh batteries in your unit and it will last for dozens, and maybe
hundreds, of dry fires.
