What Is the Point of a Cell Phone Stun Gun? Not Being Mugged For Starters.

I think by now enough of us know exactly what a stun gun is and what their intended purpose is. Stun guns are a non-lethal self-defense tool that is used to help protect innocent people in the event of an attack. They work by distributing a high-voltage, low-amperage shock of electricity to the attacker that disrupts the attacker’s normal neurological pathways and basically makes the attacker lose control over his or her own body. The effects of the stun device are temporary and in almost no cases lead to any long term ill effects. The high voltage ensures that the electrical charge will be powerful enough to stop an attacker and the low amperage ensures that the electrical charge will not prove fatal for the attacker. Just about every stun device I’ve come across shares the same general physical characteristics of being small enough to hold in one’s hand and almost all have resembled a device that is noticeably a stun gun. However, there is one line of stun devices that do not follow that second general rule and look nothing like a traditional stun device and that stun device is the cell phone stun gun. Why would such a device be necessary? Why the need to conceal the fact that it is a stun device?

I asked myself these very same questions when I first saw the cell phone stun gun and it didn’t take me long before I realized why. I think one of the main reasons someone does not want to carry a stun device would be because it would be obvious to everyone that a weapon was being carried. The thought of noticeably carrying a weapon, non-lethal or otherwise, is simply unnerving to many people and as such they are less apt to purchase a stun device and hence more likely to be unprepared should trouble strike. The cell phone stun gun on the other hand looks exactly like a real cell phone (even upon the closest of inspections) and because of this it can be more comfortably carried by people that would otherwise be self-conscience of carrying such a device in public. The less law-abiding citizens we have being leery of carrying a stun device means more law-abiding citizens having the ability to defend themselves against stronger, faster attackers and that is a wonderful thing in my opinion.

So please, if you were considering carrying some means of non-lethal self-defense but were self-conscience of doing so because of how it would “look”, consider a device like the cell phone stun gun.
