STUNGUNS and Runt Stun Guns and Why You Want One.

I love the old "Star Trek" series when Captain Kirk and the gang always carried their trustworthy stungun looking phasers. Have you noticed how they are like a stun gun? The best part was when they set their futuristic stun guns on "stun" settings.

The Enterprise bunch always used their phaser stunguns to stun their enemies - that would give a temporary unconsciousness -- instead of killing them.

These days, millions of soldiers, police officers, and everyday people do carry stun weapons to protect themselves against dangerous assaults. Much like the Star Treck fictional stungun phasers, these modern stun gun products are also designed to incapacitate a criminal temporarily without doing any long-term damage -- just long enough for you to escape.

­Stun guns are by no means infallible, but they definitely can save lives in specific dangerous situation

On our website, www.homedefender.com, there are lots of different sizes and shapes -- and even power output that you can choose from. Your singular purpose of purchasing a stun gun would be to obtain TIME in order to escape to safety -- if a criminal decided to attack you. Of course, we don't want to ever have that happen - but we should prepare to protect ourselves and our loved ones from the possibility of evil or violent behavior.

What is the best stun gun to get?

Obviously, the more power in the stun gun, the better it can take down the assailant. Stun guns are particularly effective non-lethal method of self defense.

Don’t worry, you won't get shocked if he touches you while you shoot the stun gun. It can't happen. Stunguns use high voltage and low amperage. Electrical current in the house is around 220 and uses high amperage (between 100 & 200 amps). That much will hurt someone.

The amperage is what injures. Generally, stun guns use 7 to 14 amps - and household amperage is 28 times stronger a stun gun.

I'm sure you have been shocked by touching a metal door or something metal. This kind of shock is around 25,000 volts -- it gets your attention but actually doesn’t hurt.

A stungun pulsates rapidly. When someone is zapped by a stun gun, the energy of the stun gun interrupts the neurological signal to their brain and sends signals to the body's muscles. This signal depletes the muscles of blood sugars by turning them into Lactic acid.

This exchange causes the attacker to feel weak, wobbly, and confused. In half a second, the attacker's body muscles contract. A zap of 3-5 seconds will bring the most belligerent mugger to his knees and keep him from harming you.

A weak stun gun does a good job -- and a 950,000 to 1,000,000 (plus) volt stungun is even more successful.

We all have times when something bad could happen... get the added peace of mind of knowing those you love are safe and you are there to protect them.

It's not Star Trek, but you can get the stun gun and make the move toward safety and security. Protect yourself and those you love.
