Tasers* are non-lethal, self defense products. These electronic control devices use propelled wires to conduct an electrical discharge, which affects the sensory and motor functions of the nervous system. The replaceable Taser cartridge contains compressed nitrogen to deploy two small probes that are attached to the Taser. The Taser C2, Taser M18 and Taser X26C can also be used as a direct contact stun gun device.

Because any one individual can have less tolerance for shock, there have been fatalities linked to the use of tasers, even when properly and judiciously used.

*TASER is a brand name for a product that projects stun probes. A stun gun is NOT the same thing as a TASER.
