The Taser C2 can put valuable distance between you and a potential attacker
The Taser C2 fires two mega-zapping darts and has a range of 15 feet
Is Taser’s involuntary electro-shock therapy appropriate for self defense?
Let’s face it. You can’t always carry an MK19 Automatic Grenade Launcher with you for personal protection. Or even a rifle or shotgun. Handguns are the next best thing for many situations as they’re portable, proven effective with good ammunition. They are also legal to some degree in 49 states. Is Illinois a state? We know that Chicago is a sovereign nation, but are unsure about Illinois. Let us know if you have information on that.
But there are plenty of scenarios where alternate forms of self defense make sense. Do you want to be caught completely unprotected?
Perhaps you are not quite ready for a gun, for whatever reason. They’re loud and can be scary at first.
Perhaps you spend a lot of time in a work environment where guns are not allowed – but Tasers are.
Perhaps you are just curious to see if an attacking thug really can vibrate like those old-time electric football game guys.
Team Glock’s Tori Nonaka has you convinced that you need a Glock 18 for personal protection, but you can’t seem to get your hands on one.
Whatever the reason, you may want to check out the Taser C2 as a personal protection option. Police officers around the country rely on various Taser models for protection against aggressors, why not you?
Avoiding “bad” areas is simply not enough. You never know when you might become a victim.
What does a Taser C2 actually do?
Simply stated, a Taser C2 is intended to immobilize an attacker. Immobilize is a fancy, and politically correct, term for shocking the living be-jeepers out of your attacker to the point where they are physically unable to continue doing you harm. That’s where the involuntary electro-shock therapy part comes in. Folks with many important letters after their name call this Neuro Muscular Incapacitation, or NMI for short.
- The Taser C2 is designed to fire small, but very impressive looking, darts at someone – or something if you’re an X-Files junkie – that is about to attack or harm you. These darts are connected to the hand held Taser C2 unit by very fine wires that are used to delivery carefully calibrated electrical charge to the darts. While mean and nasty looking, the darts are not designed to harm, but simply stick to clothing of your attacker so the electrical charge can be delivered.
- The hand held Taser C2 then delivers an electrical charge for a period of 30 seconds. The electrical pulse is designed to mimic the very same electrical pulses that the human brain uses to control muscles. So the Taser C2 is not intended to inflict pain, but simply completely confuse the aggressor’s entire collection of muscles. Envision the “Gator” dance scene from Animal House and you get a taste of the resulting muscle spasms. When all muscles are operating in full random mode, the attacker is effectively incapacitated. Or immobilized. And most certainly very, very frustrated.
- The point of all this involuntary electroshock therapy is to stop your attacker from, well, attacking you. For at least 30 seconds. The idea is that you’re intended to get the heck out of Dodge City, and closer to safety.
The intent is a pretty nifty concept. Stop an attacker and get to safety. With low risk of lasting physical damage or potential injury to anyone else nearby.
Benefits of the Taser C2
The Taser C2 allows you to protect yourself from a distance. Unlike hand held stun guns, it does not require the user to get within touching distance of a violent attacker.
The Taser C2 immobilizes your attacker for a period of about 30 seconds. If your aggressor is on the ground, you’re free to get away. In the fast moving sequence of events in a personal attack, 30 seconds can help put a lot of distance between you and the threat.
While options like pepper spray and stun guns rely on infliction of pain to stop a determined attacker, the Taser C2 is designed to disrupt the physical communication of the central nervous system. The Taser C2 approach is far more likely to succeed against an adrenaline and/or drug fueled attacker.
The Taser C2 includes a laser to help aim the unit. This means you do not have to bring it to eye level and aim it like a handgun in order to hit your intended target. If you feel endangered, you’re able to discreetly prepare for the eventuality of use.
The Taser C2 also includes an integrated LED light to help you use it effectively in dark or low-light situations.
The Taser C2 base module includes the power pack, which is good for 50 uses. The darts and wire components are housed in an easy-to-replace cartridge.
The Taser C2 weighs only 5.36 ounces – that’s just a wee bit more than an iPhone.
The Taser C2 is also available in 6 fashionable colors to reflect your personal favorite!
