Give muggers a shock with a cellphone stun-gun

by Bob Crabtree on 4 July 2006, 15:38

Fancy carrying a stun-gun disguised as a mobile phone? Well, it's illegal in the UK, so don't try to buy one while abroad - or order it over the net. Even so, it would be rather nice to know that if someone tries to mug you, especially if they're after your cellphone, they'd be in for a nasty shock!

This little stunner goes out for a mere $80 (shipping is free on two or more) and is available online to US citizens (though only in certain states) from TBO-TECH Self Defense Products.

Rather than paraphrase the company's description of the product, we thought we'd let you read it in full - it's just too good to mess with (and, anyway, we were worried it would be us getting the nasty shock while out and about one night if we didn't accurately describe it).

Cell Phone Stun Gun with Personal Alarm

This Cell Phone Stun Gun incorporates its unique design to give you a tactical advantage. Personal Alarm and 180,000 volt stungun with case. Cellphones are carried by almost everyone these days. No one will think that yours is actually a non-lethal self-defense weapon.

It also has a safety switch to prevent the stun gun from accidentally discharging.

Choose from either navy blue or pearl silver and the cell phone stun gun comes with a free genuine leather carrying case.

Uniquely designed right into a regular cellphone body so there's no question of how it looks. It's authentic! Just don't let anyone make a phone call! :)

Stun Devices can not be shipped to New York, Massachusetts, Illinois, New Jersey, or the city of Philadelphia, PA.

Does Not Work as a Cellphone, only a Stungun :)
