Stun Baton – An Effective Self Defense Weapon

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.

You will have a clear advantage by keeping an assailant at a safe distance when you use a stun baton because the reach of the stun baton is greater then the reach of an attacker’s arms. When the attacker is a distance from you sometimes just by test firing the unit and the sound and sight of the unit will be enough to scare him off.

With any self defense product, be it a stun gun, pepper spray or a TASER, the last thing you want to occur is to have an attacker take your self defense weapon from you and use it on you! Not good.

When you are looking at different models of a stun baton keep in mind that you want to make sure if an attacker tries to grab it from you he cannot. A good way to prevent this from happening is to buy one that electrifies not only the top where the metal prongs are but also the sides of the baton. That attacker will let go real quick when he tries to grab it from you.

A stun baton that comes with a wrist strap and disabling pin is very useful. The disabling pin is attached to the wrist strap. The disabling pin, once removed from the stun baton, stops the stun baton from firing. Always make sure you have the disabling pin inserted and the wrist strap on your wrist. If he does pry it out of your hands the disabling pin becomes dislodged and renders the stun feature useless.

Another factor to consider when purchasing a stun baton is the length of the unit. You do not want it too long where it becomes cumbersome, but just long enough so that it is easy to handle. One new model that solves the problem of length is the Expandable Stun Baton. In the closed position it is only about 12 inches long so that it can be worn comfortably in the included holster with belt loop. When it is ready for action a simple push of a button extends the length to about 21 inches! A great feature of this stun baton is that a really bright electric current pulsates up and down the top 12″! It creates a very intimidating electrical sound that would make any attacker think twice before approaching you.

Using a stun baton to ward off a dog attack is one other great use of this self defense weapon. If you do a lot of walking you have probably been confronted by either one or two vicious dogs. Keeping them a safe distance away from you can be a problem. One tap with your stun baton will send them on their way to find a place to lick their wounds! They will not be bothering you anymore.
