Weight Loss Made Easy

The best thing to do is educate yourself on personal safety and self defense. I have been doing this because it is hard to keep up with all four of my kids and wondering if I am doing my very best to keep them all safe.

Burglars and an abusive nanny are the first predators you will ever encounter in your own home. A home security system, child monitor and personal alarm are all priceless investments. Trust me, go get these today.

Alarms and safety lights provide personal safety for children, pets, bags, bikes, so you get your money\’s worth. An inexpensive alternative to home security systems are travel alarms you can hang on doors and windows.

In order to keep my valuables safe I use diversion safes. These safes will fool someone if they are rummaging through my house looking for something. I also use the computer activity tracking software often so that I know what kind of material my children are looking at and also what kinds of messages are coming in or being sent out.

I bring a pepper spray when I go out, with my children or not, and keep another in my car. They are the simplest things to use for personal safety – you spray, that\’s it. Pepper sprays are also good as bear and canine repellers.

In order to be responsible it is important to check the state or city restrictions when purchasing pepper sprays, stun batons or stun guns.

The fact that The Taser C2 can be fired from a distance makes it a great way to subdue attackers. There are even other stun guns that look like regular everyday items you would have on you like a cell phone.

Among the other self defense products that are out, unconventional items such as the Kubotans and Kubotan key chains, crossbow, blowgun, BB pistols, pen knives can also be very helpful.

Buying a stun gun is easy and simple. Once you receive it make sure you learn how it works so that you use it to the best effectiveness. Stun guns are not complicated devices but not knowing how a stun gun works could lead you to use it incorrectly.

Stun guns jumble up the electrical pulses in a body. These are the pulses that are being sent from the brain to other parts of the body telling the other parts what to do, such as “OK, raise your arm”. These electrical pulses control every function and movement of the body. When a stun gun is applied to an attacker those electrical pulses go awry. As an example, the electrical pulse being sent to the arm gets rerouted to the leg and the arm does not perform as it was instructed. This is because of the very low amperage sent from the stun gun into a body.

A stun gun causes the brain to go on vacation for a few seconds and the body shuts down. When this happens a great deal of energy is used up by the body. This energy is depleted because the blood sugar level in the body becomes seriously low. The body is sometimes paralyzed momentarily and the attacker cannot function at all. Maybe except to drool a little bit!

Stun guns use only 9 volt batteries or are rechargeable. They have internal transformers designed to increase voltage and reduce the amperage that is passed into the body. An oscillator is integrated which works to produce the pulsing action. The charge is built up with a capacitor and the electrodes are responsible for delivering the charge. These are the only elements of a stun gun. Stun guns send voltages ranging from 100,000 to 3,000,000 or more. This is more than enough to go through the thickest of jackets and clothing. Only 3 milliamps are used which is why there is never any long term damage to the body.

Usually there are 4 electrodes at the end of a stun gun. Two are test electrodes and two are for applying the current to a body. The test electrodes are usually pretty close together and you can see the electricity jumping from one test electrode to the other. At the same time a loud crackling noise occurs. Very often this can be enough to make an attacker think twice and decide not to bother you. He would rather not feel the effects of 2 million volts.

We have seen how a little 9 volt battery can incapacitate an attacker. It simply disrupts the electrical signals from the brain. This is all accomplished by introducing an electric charge with about 3 milliamps behind it. There are small stun guns, big stun guns, disguised stun guns, all shapes and sizes but they all do the same thing. Give you a chance to escape.

Don’t forget, when you use your stun gun the electrodes must be touching the assailant. Do not be afraid of receiving a shock yourself. Even if you are touching the bad guy when you apply the stun gun the charge will not effect you. A stun gun gives you the chance to disable an attacker so that you can then escape from the situation.
