How The C2 TASER Works As A Personal Defense Weapon
The C2 TASER EMD Personal Defense Weapon works by interrupting the communication signals from the brain to the body. TASER devices do not inflict permanent harm; they only temporarily disrupt the way our body functions. TASERs do not cause long-term damage because the electricity delivered into a person’s body is very high voltage but low amperage. This way, the charge is not intense enough to cause any permanent injury or even death to humans. However, on persons with a heart condition or other medical problems, it is possible, just as sneaking up behind a person and saying ‘BOO’ in his ear would.
When you fire a TASER C2 at a person, the electric shock delivered will combine with the electric signals from the brain, confusing the body and making it hard to move. TASERs temporarily stun the muscles and make it feel like a person fell off a 2-story building. When stunned with a TASER C2, a person will be very confused and disoriented for minutes afterward.
To use the TASER C2 as a stun gun, hold the electrodes firmly against a muscular area of the attackers body such as a shoulder, thigh, or buttocks. You will not receive a shock even if you are touching the person being stunned. Hold the TASER against your attacker’s body for a few seconds. More time is required if the person is large.
TASER devices use EMD (electro-muscular disruption) technology. Compared to stun guns, EMD is more powerful with its 18-26 watt electrical system. The TASER C2 uses compressed air to fire two darts that trail electric cable back to the handset. When the darts attach to the skin or clothing, a 5-second 50,000 volt charge is released down the cable, causing the assailant’s muscles to contract uncontrollably. The TASER C2 has a laser sight that helps target the assailant. TASER devices work from up to 21 feet.
If the darts miss, there are two probes in front of the weapon, allowing the unit to be used just like any standard contact stun gun. Because these weapons affect the central nervous system by imitating the electrical impulses used to communicate within the human body, a hit anywhere on the body can be effective. Thus, the C2 TASER EMD Personal Defense Weapon is much easier to use than pepper sprays or firearms that require a hit to a specific zone of the body.
