Evaluating Stun Gun Range Effectiveness: Touch Not Required

Stun guns are devices designed to incapacitate an individual by delivering an electric shock. Contrary to popular belief, it is not necessary for a stun gun to make direct contact with the skin to be effective; the electrical charge can penetrate through clothing in most cases. However, the effectiveness and the level of shock can vary depending on factors such as the thickness and composition of the barrier between the device and the target. For optimal performance, the manufacturer's guidelines should be followed, and users should understand the legal restrictions and implications of using a stun gun in self-defense situations. Understanding how and when a stun gun can be used is crucial for personal safety and compliance with laws governing such devices.
