How does a stun gun work?
The stun gun works on the muscular and neural system. It does not rely on high amperage or pain for results. The stun gun dumps its energy into the muscles at a high pulse frequency. This makes the muscles work very rapidly which results in energy loss. It also interrupts the tiny neurological impulses that travel through the whole body to control and direct voluntary muscle movement. This causes disorientation and loss of balance and leaves the attacker in a passive and confused condition for several minutes. Generally speaking, a one second contact with the device will repel, startle and cause muscle contraction. One to two seconds will cause muscle spasms and a dazed state. Three or more seconds will cause loss of balance and muscle control, mental confusion and severe disorientation. The attacker will be unable to recover for several minutes and effects may last for up to fifteen minutes. Will I be shocked if the attacker touches me when the device is applied? No! The electrical cu
Stun devices are designed to scramble the nervous system. By sending energy into the muscular system at a high pulse frequency the muscles work very rapidly, but not efficiently. This rapid work cycle depletes blood sugar by converting it into lactic acid within seconds. The resulting energy loss makes it difficult for the attacker to move. Simultaneously, tiny neurological impulses that travel throughout the muscular system are interrupted, causing the attacker to become disoriented and confused.
