The TASER X26-C - The Newest Consumer Model
By now, with all the media stories, it would be hard to find someone who doesn't know what a TASER® is. Despite the occasional lurid headline, many police, security and law enforcement agencies throughout the world depend on the TASER for quick, effective and, if used properly, non-lethal apprehension of violent or otherwise uncooperative persons.
Consumers have been buying TASERs for their own protection for several years. Now a new high tech model has filtered down from the police ranks. The patrolman's favorite, the TASER X26 [http://www.stungunsupply.com/product/taser-x26c.html], is now available for citizens to buy in the consumer model X26C.
It not only looks like the police version, it has many of the features too. Like the police model, it is lightweight and easy to handle. The consumer model has a 15 feet maximum throw, while the police version can go up to 30 feet. The X26C has a maximum of three 10 second burst cycles. Continually holding the trigger will result in continuous discharge until the trigger switch is released or, the DPM battery pack is depleted. The idea of course is to incapacitate and then run away. If you leave your TASER at the scene, TASER International will send you another as long as you file a police report.
This is the first consumer TASER to feature a sophisticated readout of vital information. You can track battery level, energy remaining on the digital power magazine and time in use. The TASER contains all the safety controls that all TASERs contain such as serialized paper tags. Twenty to thirty of these tags deploy during an actual TASER activation. Law enforcement can later retrieve this confetti from the scene and contact TASER International to get the name of the owner of the TASER device, allowing police to track any potential misuse. That's one reason new owners must register their product with TASER International.
Finally, this model contains what only police models had before, an upgradable software capability. That way the TASER can take advantage of the latest monitoring specifications that are available.
