Technology improves exponentially every day, and the new kid in town for the stun gun set is the Runt.  The Runt is virtually undetectable in the palm of your hand, and is available in three voltage levels—350,000, 650,000, or 950,000 volts. It can also be worn as a pager would.

States that currently have restrictions on stun guns include Hawaii, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin.  Specific cities that have stun gun restrictions are Annapolis and Baltimore, Maryland; Chicago, Illinois; Denison, Iowa; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; and the District of Columbia.   If you are concerned about legal restrictions in your area, check with local law enforcement agencies to ensure you have the most current information.

When traveling, stun guns should be packed in CHECKED luggage only. They are not allowed in terminal areas of any airport, or in any carry-on luggage. Never attempt to enter a courthouse, government building, public meeting, or sporting event area with a stun device.

Before you do ANY traveling, however, check with what the laws are in the states and cities you’re traveling to as different states have different laws.

The stun gun is designed to key into the nervous system.  It dumps its energy into the muscles at a high pulse frequency that makes the muscles work very rapidly.  This rapid work cycle depletes blood sugar by converting it into lactic acid all in just seconds.  The resulting energy loss makes it difficult to move and function.  This causes disorientation and loss of balance, leaving the attacker in a passive and confused condition for several minutes; there is no significant effect on the heart and other organs.

As a general rule, a 1/4 second contact will repel and startle the attacker, giving intense pain and muscle contraction.  One to two seconds will cause intense pain, muscle spasms and a dazed mental state, this may drop the attacker to the ground.  Over three seconds will cause intense pain, loss of balance, loss of muscle control, mental confusion and disorientation.  Generally, any charge over three seconds will cause the aggressor to fall to the ground.  The aggressor will be unable to recover for several minutes and effects may last for up to fifteen minutes.

My mother works in a questionable neighborhood and I’m often worried that I will get a call from police with tragic news.  With that in mind, I gave my mom a cell phone stun gun to keep on her person when she’s leaving her office and walking towards her car.  If any punk tries anything on her, she can stun them with 950,000 volts before calling the police for help.  I want to ensure that my mom will be around for several more Mother’s Day and this device will help in that notion.

THE PRETENDER 950,000 volt CELL PHONE STUN GUN pretends to be a camera cell phone, but it’s not. It’s a powerful 950,000 volt stun gun. This stun gun will really give you the edge since an attacker will think you are just carrying a cell phone. It also has a very bright built-in 12 LED flashlight
