Perfect Diapason

Stun Batons are a great self defense weapon when you want to keep an attacker away from you and not let them get close. Stun batons pack a high voltage punch and can be intimidating looking.

To put the odds in your favor it is always best to stay as far away from an attacker as possible. The stun baton lets you do this. It is longer then the attacker’s arms and quite frequently an attacker will turn and walk away after you test fire the baton. They see the sparks and hear the electricity crackle and decide it might not be a good idea to mess with you.

Keep in mind, as with any self defense weapon, you do not want the attacker to take the weapon out of your hand and use it against you. Needless to say that would not be a favorable outcome.

When buying a stun baton look for safety features that will help to prevent an attacker from taking the stun baton away from you. One feature that works well to prevent this is to buy one that has metal strips running down the side of the baton that also become electrically charged when the baton is activated. This will stop any attacker from grabbing it out of your hands!

Another feature to look for is a safety strap or disabling pin. With a wrist safety strap on the end of the stun baton the assailant can not just grab it away from you. If the wrist strap is connected to a safety or, disabling pin, if the attacker does manage to grab the stun baton it will be rendered useless when the disabling pin is pulled out of the unit.

OK, sometimes length does matter. Especially when it comes to using a stun baton. If you are concerned about how short or how long a baton you should get consider looking at an expandable stun baton. When not in use these little babies are a compact 12″. With the press of a button they extend to about 21″! Pretty neat, huh? When not in use it can be carried comfortably in your hand, just like an umbrella, or placed in a holster and clipped to your belt.

Don’t consider using one of these just for self defense from an attack. If you walk a lot you probably have at one time been approached by a very unfriendly dog. What did you do? Well, with a stun baton your chances would be a lot better of warding off a dog attack. One touch of the baton before the animal gets close enough to bite you and he will run away yelping with his tail between his legs!
