Note: If you ever feel compelled to "mug" yourself with a taser, one
note of caution: there is no such thing as a one-second burst when
you zap yourself. You will not let go of that thing until it is
dislodged
from your hand by a violent thrashing about on the floor. A three
second burst would be considered conservative.


Obviously you are a novice -
The proper procedure for testing these things is to anchor the unit to the
ceiling with a short string and duct tape. Stand on a chair and push the
button. As you fall off the chair, your hand will release the button, thus
preventing muscular lock up.

Particularly if you use a noose to slow your fall ?:-)
