The amount of voltage that a military stun gun has is 50,000 volts or 2,000 volts under load which is often delivered in short duration pulses from a core of copper wire in the main unit.

Military stun guns and police issued tasers often have the same voltage and operate in near the same way.

The strongest Taser in the world is the Taser 7 which had a voltage of 50,000 volts although now the Taser 10 has a 1,000 voltage.

The other strongest taser in the world is a police taser which is 50,000 volts or 2,000 volts under load.

The strongest stun gun is the Dartmoor stun gun that has a voltage of 300,000 volts and is a rechargeable stun gun which is the size of a phone.

Most police issued Tasers are 50,000 volts or 2,000 volts under load.

The darts of a police taser are connected to the main taser unit by thin wires which achieve a high dielectric strength and durability given the extremely high voltage current that they conduct.

The 50,000 volts or 2,00 volts under load can be delivered in short duration pulses from a core copper wire in the main unit.

A 50000 volt Taser is very strong and has enough output to incapacitate someone temporarily through muscle control disruption.

The 50,000 volt Taser delivers a high voltage shock which is 50,000 volts and takes a person down temporarily without causing death or harm.

However someone with a heart condition could potentially die or have a heart attack as a result of the Taser.

The 50,000 volt Taser operates on 26 watts of electric output.

The high voltage pulses from the Taser disrupt your nervous system and causes temporary muscle control loss and makes you unable to move or act effectively.

While the taser is designed to be non lethal, there are still risks associated with the Taser use which can cause more serious injuries and even death.

Most police issued Tasers are 50,000 volts or 2,000 volts under load.

The darts of a police taser are connected to the main taser unit by thin wires which achieve a high dielectric strength and durability given the extremely high voltage current that they conduct.

The 50,000 volts or 2,00 volts under load can be delivered in short duration pulses from a core copper wire in the main unit.

The main difference between a taser and a stun gun is the distance at which they can deliver an electric shock.

Stun guns require direct contact and tasers can be used from a distance.

Stun guns are small handheld devices which can deliver a sharp pain through direct contact and is often a good self defense tool for women because they are compact and easy to use at close range.

Tasers are larger devices and are shaped like handguns which deploy probes from a distance and can incapacitate someone from as far as 15 feet away.

The dramatic visual and auditory effects of the tasers arcing electricity can serve as a powerful deterrent even before the probes make contact with someone.

Both tasers and stun guns deliver an electric charge and shock that causes muscle spasms and pain and incapacitation and a taser is often more effective for stopping an attacker quickly as a result of the range and spread of the electrical current.
