*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
Although many people think TASER� devices and stun guns are the same thing, they are actually two different kinds of self defense devices. Stun guns must be pressed to the skin of an assailant, while TASER devices shoot two electrodes, so that they work from up to fifteen feet away from the attacker.

TASER is actually a brand name, produced by TASER International. There are several different TASER models designed for different audiences. The TASER C2, which is the newest model, is the one specifically designed for private citizens to carry as self defense. The design is meant to look sleek and ergonomic, less like a handgun or dangerous weapon. Designed to be carried in a purse or backpack, it even comes in a range of colors, including pink, red, silver, blue and more. Yet it still includes most of the features from the TASER models designed for police or military use.

The TASER C2 can be used up to 15 feet away from the attacker, and it delivers a 50,000 volt punch. With EMD (Electro-Muscular Disruption) technology, exclusive to TASER International, this jolt interrupts the body�s electrical system, stopping an attacker for several minutes. TASER devices are known for being very effective against any attacker you may need to fight back against, so you can be sure that you will be protected when carrying a TASER. While the C2 is the most powerful TASER model yet, it is still a nonlethal weapon, making it a good choice for self defense.

These TASER technologies have come a long way since the 1960�s, when the first TASER was developed by a NASA engineer named Jack Cover. This device, based on a stun gun, used gunpowder to fire the projectile. This first model was called the TASER TF-76. Though it was not designed to look like a gun, the use of gunpowder led it to be classified as a firearm, as a weapon available only to police. As a result, these early models did not find the wide audience necessary to make TASERs device commercially successful.

By 1993, the next generation of TASER models was being developed. This time, the model was specifically designed to use compressed air, so that it could be made available to the general public. The Air TASER 34000 was very similar to the TASER TF-76, except that it used compressed air. This TASER model was not strong enough to subdue some attackers, however, so they again went back to the drawing board to come up with a TASER model that would stop any aggressor with uncontrollable muscle spasms. The TASER M18 and M26 models, the next generation, became widely accepted as a non-lethal tool for use by law enforcement. The M18 was offered to civilians, while the M26 is a law enforcement-only model. These both resemble the shape of a pistol.

The X26C, first produced in 2003, is the latest consumer Electronic Control Device (ECD), featuring a stronger electric shock in a smaller, lighter package. It looks more like a handgun, based on the law enforcement X26 and can also penetrate up to an inch of clothing.
