A cell phone stun gun is now available. With a whopping 900,000 volts of stopping power, it can stop an attacker dead in his tracks. Just three to five seconds of contact with a stun gun will put an attacker on the ground in contorted agony. Stun guns use high voltage and low amperage to temporarily disable an attacker for several minutes.

Stun guns were first sold for an individual's personal safety. Combine safety with the appearance of a cell phone and you have a non lethal self defense tool that has the added element of surprise and just might save your life. Surprise can often be your best weapon against an assailant. Your goal should be to surprise the attacker long enough for you to flee the scene.

Having a cell phone stun gun is a great way to hide the fact it's a weapon. It blends in, and can be taken into public areas without arousing alarm.

Cities that restrict stun guns include Annapolis, MD, Baltimore, MD, Baltimore County, MD, Chicago, IL, District of Columbia and Philadelphia.

These units also typically feature a super high intensity flashlight which alone could temporarily blind an attacker. The stun gun packs a whopping 900,000 volts enough to stop the most aggressive of assailants. A wrist strap with a safety shut-off pin sets off the alarm if the unit is pulled out of your hands.
