Personal Security Devices
By Steve Lane
The world is becoming an unsafe place for both men and women around the world. Every day on the news you hear stories of women being attacked and robbed. However, in some cases, it gets more tragic because the thieves get desperate and may kill the person.
Women especially are targets because the intruder feels that women are easy to rob and so they become more vulnerable. I think women are sick and tired of being targets and are taking control of their own safety and protection. Women are even going a step further by taking self defense classes to be prepared to defend themselves in the event that they come across any unsafe situations.
Being equipped with personal security devices is also another way that women are safeguarding themselves from attackers and intruders. Women have different types of personal security devices to choose from as a precaution. Pepper sprays, stun guns, maces, and other safety devices are some of the few we will mention here.
Pepper Spray, I think, was the first one that became popular among women. It is easy to carry and is packaged in a compact and small aerosol can. It fits securely in a womans purse and on a key chain. These days they are even making pepper sprays in the form of a lipstick. The thief will not know what hit him or her because a woman can take out her lipstick without the attacker being suspicious. When the Pepper Spray is held toward the attacker and pressed to directly affect the eyes, it will stop the attacker in his or her tracks and disable the attacker.
The canine pepper spray emits ten one second bursts and this is for individuals who are attacked by dogs. The bear pepper spray was created for a bear attack. The pepper spray only causes short term pain and is not detrimental to the attacker in the long run. It is just a temporary tool to give the woman a chance to escape quickly. The woman should first learn to use this pepper spray and not wait until she is attacked to fumble with it.
Stun Guns are small devices that are hand held. It is used by many law enforcement officers. It emits soaring voltage electric shock when it is used on an individual for up to five seconds. Once the individual is shocked with this elevated voltage, he or she becomes disoriented and will fall. Stun Guns cannot cause long term harm. The person will recuperate in up to ten minutes. This gives the woman enough time to escape.
Cell Phone Stun Gun is one of the newest personal security devices on the market. It carries up to 800,000 voltages. Its unique feature gives the woman a tactical advantage. The intruder or attacker will not know what hit them because the cell phone is not an obvious self defense tool. It is easy to surprise the attacker with a cell phone. The purpose for this device is to give the victim enough time to get away. It is not to intentionally harm since these tools are nonlethal weapons. It also has an alarm and a flashlight installed as well as an anti-theft disabling wrist strap.
Women can rest assured that they can now stop being victims and protect themselves with personal security devices that work.
