*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
Those shopping for self defense devices and considering the purchase of a stun gun often wonder just how effective this device could be. After all, a mini stun gun is only about the size of a package of cigarettes. Surely this isn't strong enough to take down a full-grown man, right? Actually, stun guns are surprisingly powerful, and will take down any attacker almost instantly. Still, if you plan to carry a stun gun for self defense, you should be aware of how the stun gun's effects may change on attackers who are larger, smaller, or wearing certain types of clothing.

Although the best-case scenario is the stun gun coming into direct contact with your attacker's bare skin, fear not, for this device will still work effectively even through a typical layer of clothing. Jeans, t-shirts, and even a down jacket will not stop a powerful stun gun. Thin layers of clothing are certainly no match for its powers, as the current will go right through them.

However, if your attacker happens to be wearing a rubberized coat or a thick leather jacket, try to aim for an area of his body not covered by this clothing, as it may provide some insulation from the full power of the electric shock. Try to place the stun gun against bare skin or areas of the body covered only in a thin layer of clothing. Still, the highest voltage stun guns available on the market today should be able to penetrate even the thickest layers of clothing. Today, there are stun guns offering a million volts or even more. This will easily penetrate thick clothing to disable your attacker, but will not cause any serious or permanent harm.

In addition to the issue of clothing, there is also a prevalent myth that a stun gun will be rendered useless against an attacker who is under the influence of drugs or alcohol. For the vast majority of people, the effects of a stun gun will not change under these conditions. No amount of willpower can fight a stun gun's effects.

Finally, many people wonder if their stun gun will be effective against an attacker who is very large. Although it does require more of an electric current to take down assailants who are large, the highest voltage stun guns on the market today are certainly powerful enough to do so. The current will incapacitate your attacker faster if you aim for a large body part, such as the torso, rather than an arm or leg. When shopping for a stun gun, choose the most powerful one you can find, because it will work fastest against attackers of all sizes.

Once the stun gun has contacted your attacker, the electrical current interrupts signals sent to the muscles, resulting in loss of balance, mental confusion, and other effects. Your attacker will be left motionless and literally stunned. All it takes is a second or two of contact between the stun gun and your attacker. Try to hold the stun gun in place for as long as possible, or until your assailant falls to the ground. The effects of a stun gun last up to fifteen minutes, plenty of time for you to escape.
