Advanced TASER Summary With Q&As

Taser International 

“A person hit with an Advance TASER^® will feel dazed for several seconds. Recovery is fast and the effects stop the very instant that the M26 shuts off.”

“The batteries limit the effectiveness in cold and extremely hot temperatures. Alkaline batteries perform poorly in freezing temperatures.” 

“ The spark from an Advance TASER can ignite some flammable liquids, vapors or sensitive explosives. It should not be used anywhere that cigarettes are forbidden for fire safety reasons. It should not be used on anyone who has been sprayed with an alcohol based chemical spray”.

“The Advance TASER can work if one probe hits a human and the second falls on grass or dirt as the power grounds. However, the results depreciate substantially if the second probe lands on concrete, asphalt or not at all on wood floors. Should the user miss or engage a second attacker, he can touch the unit directly to the target”. 

“The heat issue is only an issue if the Advance TASER were left sitting in the sun, once again adversely affecting the batteries.” “As with any product containing polycarbonate and other thermoplastics, the Advance TASER and Air Cartridges should never be left in direct sunlight.”
