There are so many choices when it comes to self defense products that it can be a little intimidating. You probably already know that self defense weapons are used by military and law enforcement agencies the world over because they are so effective.

Pepper spray is at the top of the popularity list then comes stun guns with tasers last only because they are so pricey. It should be noted that tasers are the most effective of all these self defense devices.

The purpose of a non lethal self defense item is to give you enough time to get away form a dangerous situation-not injure anyone, thus the non lethal handle. A pepper spray will get you 20-30 minutes to get away, a stun gun 5-10 minutes and a taser up to 30 minutes to seek help or subdue the assailant.

In three to five seconds the 800,000 volts immobilizes him by forcing his muscles to work so fast he has no energy left. This also interrupts the tiny neurological stimulus that controls muscle movement resulting in disorientation and loss of balance.

When it comes to stun guns without a doubt the most popular stun gun sold in the U.S. is the cell phone stun gun. It gives you an edge usually reserved to the assailant-that of surprise. No one will know you are carrying a non lethal weapon when you have a cell phone stun gun or a camera cell phone stun gun.

Aside from that the power and features carry the day. 800,000 volts and more depending on specific model, a disabling pin wrist strap that prevents the stun device from being used against you, an alarm, a flashlight and more features. They all combine to make the cell phone stun gun the most popular stun device there is.

Most models come with free holsters and lifetime warranties. Prices vary by manufacturer from $45-$90. Some models are even rechargeable.

Often the sight of the flying sparks and crackling sounds of a stun gun is often enough to cause a would-be attacker to back off.

Chances are if you are reading this that crime has touched your life in some way or you consider yourself at risk. Take the next step and do something to protect yourself! Your life and safety is worth far more than the cost of a stun gun or pepper spray.

If you are in the market for a self defense product look for quality, effectiveness, and a biggie-LEGALITY. Stun guns, tasers and pepper sprays are not legal in some states. Check with your local police department first before you get one.
