Benefits of a Mini Stun Gun

A mini stun gun may be small, but it can also be incredibly powerful. Try one that delivers one million volts and you’ll see for yourself.

In the past, the higher the voltage of a stun gun was, the larger device had to be. But not any longer. Now you can get a model that is so tiny, you can conceal it in a cigarette packet. And yes, it really does fire 1-million volts. The secret is that the original, most powerful stun gun models needed three or four batteries to be able to operate with such a high voltage. A new model mini stun gun, on the other hand is rechargeable. You don’t need batteries at all.

Ironically, the smallest mini stun gun on the market is currently the most powerful. Better still, it comes with a flash-light built into the device. This particular model also has a safety button that prevents you accidentally triggering it. And it comes with a free holster (with a belt loop) so you can wear it around your waist if you wish, and is available in black, silver and a really pretty pink.

There is something you can buy that operates on an even higher voltage – and that is a stun pen. While not really a gun, it is offers the highest “stun gun” voltage available. This model comes with a built-in LED flashlight.

One of the cheapest small stun guns also delivers a whack of volts – although not quite as much – only 80,000. This one works with a 9-volt battery and also comes with a holster for your belt.

But there are other little stun guns in between these (in terms of voltage that is). One little “runt” is available in three different voltages – 350,000, 650,000 and 950,000. Perfect for women, these models will fit into a purse or handbag, and may also be carried in a holster.

The mini stun gun works the same way as any other stun gun. When you touch an assailant with the prongs on the end of it, and then trigger the device, the effect will send him or her reeling, because the shock affects muscle control and balance. It is also quite painful, even though the device doesn’t rely on the pain factor.

Although not particularly small, the most powerful stun gun will stop an assailant dead in their tracks with 2.7-million volts. But this is not easily hidden or disguised. If you want something that looks harmless, but still kicks a punch, cell phone stun guns might be just what you are looking for. What a pleasure to be able to shock a potential cell phone thief who though he/she just got lucky! There is even a camera-cell phone model with a flashlight that has 950,000 volts.

Now if you are wondering about the high voltage some stun guns work with, and wondering if these self defense weapons don’t do any harm, the amps (or current) are low. So the answer is no. Another question many people ask is whether they will be shocked when they trigger the device. This is another NO. The shock is delivered, and confined to the spot where you prod with the prongs into your assailant. More information about personal safety training
