A stun gun has two numbers associated with it's power. The first is amps. Stun guns run about 3-4 milliamps. A full amp will kill someone and AED's run as high as 500. So a stun gun won't even mess up a pacemaker, much less cause arrhythmia or death. The second number is voltage. This is the number you see plastered across ads for stun guns. It really doesn't have much to do with the stopping power or a stun gun, but the higher voltage guns do work quicker and might possibly work better through thicker clothes.

What 30 kv stun gun can do to human body?
A contact stun gun will cause the body's muscles to contract and release very rapidly. This has the effect of depleting them of glycogen, which is what muscles use for energy. In order to restore the glycogen, the body will pull sugar from the bloodstream to make up the difference. This will cause a person to be tired and out of energy. A stun gun does not have the amperage to cause a person to go into arrhythmia or cause the person's heart to stop. The voltage only determines how much clothing the stun gun will be effective through. A 30kv stun gun for example won't have the penetration power of a 1,000,000 volt stun gun.
