It operates on a simple concept, your child straps a small transponder to their wrist or ankle, or put it in their pocket. Your base station works on batteries, or electricity, and can monitor up to two bracelet’s. The power adapter has the US 2 prong flat plug, though because it’s 110-240V, you can add a 2 prong adapter to make it work if you live in another country. We do ship these world wide, though we can’t send any TASER® devices, stun guns, pepper sprays, knives, kubotans, or telescopic steel batons overseas. Just everything else.

The good part is when your child wonders past 50 meters, or 54 yards, it will sound an alarm. The distance is adjustable, so you can set it for shorter distances.

How many times do you have to get hit before you can call it self defense? Like in school if someone hits you and you fight back you both get suspended but i think if you get hit a certain number of times you don’t get in trouble because its self defense. Does anyone know how many times you have to get hit to call it self defense?

Kalops, Babecures, and Noospy

Posted By admin

I love my wife, Minh Le. We met online after I was bitten by the Asian bug when I had to travel to Thailand on business. She’s from Viet Nam, and one of the sweetest girl in the world. While her English is really good, however, some words she has dyslexia, and pronounces or spells them wrong. In Viet Nam, they structure their sentences different.

I made some seared scallops the other night and she called them kalops, and even sent a text message that I should eat them for lunch.

Then I get a text message she is leaving her work, and to “Please star babecure.” Yes, I’ll star the babecure…

And finally, we hit Knotts Berry Farm, and who do we get a picture with? Noospy!

Heres a pic of Mindy & I with Noospy.

And they had a really creepy fortune teller there that was amazingly accurate…

You gotta love it…

Rock Solid Lock-out Protection With The Stone Diversion Safe

Posted By admin

While we are on the subject of Diversion Safes or Hidden Safes, how many times have you locked your keys in your car, house, business, or apartment? As we get older, we start to forget where we put things, and I can remember closing my door at home, and looking for my keys, and they are inside, locked.

Has that happened to you? If so, there is a great little item called the Stone Diversion Safe.

Fale Rock Hidden Safe

Just flip it over and take off the plastic piece on the bottom. Inside there is a compartment to put a key.

Then put it outside somewhere, preferably @ night so neighbors won’t see, or when you are pulling some weeds. Then the next time you brain fart and lock yourself out, you can quickly get in and get the spare.

You do have a spare key now don’t you??? If not, pick up any 3 diversions safes, and we will give you a 4th one of equal or lesser value, for FREE

Prevent A Close Shave With The Shaving Cream Diversion Safe

Posted By admin

We are going back and looking at some of our earlier videos, and we can’t believe how bad the quality is, and how long they are. We did the earliest ones with a cheap camcorder, and iMovie on a Mac. Here is a link to one we posted on YouTube in April of 2008 called: What is a Diversion Safe – Hidden Safe?

It’s 6 minutes long, goes over 5 different safes, and the video quality is terrible, though it was all we had. My how times have changed. Now we use Final Cut Express, have a better camcorder, and compress in the correct size with H.264. That video reviewed 5 different hidden safes or diversion safes.

If you don’t know, a hidden safe is one that takes an innocent item, hollows it out, and lets you hide diamonds, rings, coins, or cash in places a punk would not think to look. According the the Chicago crime commission, a criminal spends 8 minutes in a house looking for valuables. If you spread yours around, they will be less likely to find them before they vacate the premises.

So we took that long video, sliced & diced it up, and have made 5 new videos out of it. Short & sweet; here you go with the Barbasol Shaving Cream Diversion Safe:

Wait until the end, as there is a special offer just for you…

Do You Need A Stun Gun?

Posted By admin

This is a good question; Do you really need a stun gun?

If you carry a concealed, or open weapon in states that allow it, the answer might be no or maybe. You can always use the threat of the gun as self defense, as well as actually use it, though sometimes you might not want to use it or you are not carrying it.

If you are handicapped, a women, elderly, frail, or small, the answer could be yes. Though a stun gun is really a close proximity non-lethal weapon that comes in many shapes and sizes. It won’t work past the reach of your arm, unless it’s a TASER device like the TASER C2, which shoots some barbed darts into an attacker from up to 15 feet, then devastates them with the patented way the pulse the electricity into the punk at different speeds, vs any other stun gun that just blasts raw voltage.

Actually, the TASER C2 is only 50,000 volts, the wimpiest stun gun on earth voltage wise. We even wrote an article about it and posted it here; Is the TASER C2 the Worlds Wimpiest Stun Gun? By contrast, the lowest voltage stun gun that we know of is the 80,000 Volt Talon Mini Stun Gun

 

Mace Pepper Gun Pink
Cell Phone Stun Gun

 

Here are a few of our favorite stun guns that we like to recommend:

  1. The Cell Phone Stun Gun, which gives you the advantage of holding something that looks like a phone, and you can even pretend to talk to someone on it, then with the push of a button, it’s blasting 800,000 volts into the attackers body, taking them to the ground. It has a disabling wrist strap that renders the stun gun useless when pulled from you. You should look for that in all stun guns you are considering.
  2. The Stun Master 2.7 Million Volt Multi Function Stun Gun has the highest voltage we know of, almost 3 million volts! It also has a flashing red light, a white light, and an alarm to notify anyone around you something is going on. Disabling wrist strap is standard, and it comes with a nylon case, and has a built-in battery that you need a cable to recharge.
  3. The Barracuda 1.8 Million Volt Rechargeable Stun Gun packs almost 2 million volts, has the disabling wrist strap, is very small and compact, and has a built-in battery and plug so you don’t need a cable or nuthin, just plug it into the wall.
  4. The TASER C2 because it allows you to stop an attacker up to 15 feet, and with their pulsating, variable voltage, its possibly the best non-lethal product on the market.
  5. And finally, the Stun Master Telescopic Stun Baton, which we call our Star Wars Stun Gun because you pull it from the holster, and the shaft extends over 21 inches, has an alarm, light, and disabling wrist strap. It also has built-in batteries, so you can save the earth and take down a punk in one fell swoop!

Remember to stun first & ask question later!

Chicago Considering Issuing TASER C2′s To All Elementary Students

Posted By admin

With 47 school age children killed since President Obama took office, Chicago school officials are considering the possibility of issuing over 400,000 TASER C2 stunning devices to all students.

“We gotta do something,” cried Bertha Williams, a concerned parent. “We gotta stop kids from killing kids.”

Amen to that, and we applaud the move as one that will most definitely slow down the youth violence.

A TASER C2 is in reality on of the weakest stun guns in the world, and won’t kill you, unless you have some type of condition where you are walking on thin ice.

It’s only 50,000 volts, considering the most powerful stun gun on the market is the Stun Master 2.7 Million Volt Multi Function Stun Gun; however, it’s what TASER International does with the voltage that will drop the biggest urban gorilla.

As soon as you launch the 2 barbed projectiles into your attacker, the 50,000 volts goes pouring into his body. He will drop like a sack of blubber, and for the next 30 seconds, the TASER C2 will pulse the electricity, and vary the pulses from 8 to 17x per second, for 1-8 second busts, until 30 seconds are over.

You can actually set the thing down and walk away while it continues to disrupt the attackers central nervous system.

Nothing, except a hand gun will do as much devastation, though you don’t have to worry about being charged with murder.

If you are considering a TASER C2 for your wife, mother, sister, or yourself, take off 12% at check-out with coupon code: TASER C2.

Remember to shoot first & ask questions later…

The GlassGuard Vibration Alarm Alerts You To A Home Invasion Robbery

Posted By admin

This is not a good factoid; according to Statistics U.S.A., there was an average of 3,600,000 home invasions annually between 1994 and 2000. That is 3 million, six hundred thousand invasions. That’s a lot if you really think about it. It’s almost 10,000 per day. Every day, 24/7.

I think crime is going down because the DOJ reports it’s only 2 Million each year, or one out of five homes in the USA will be invaded by hell bent punks who want to steal something and they don’t give a damn if you are in the house or not.

Are you ready?

Truly ready? My now discontinued camouflage TASER C2 & large 4oz. Pepper Shot Pepper Spray are out, and I got my GlassGuard Vibration Alarm hooked up to my windows, so when some punk tries to open a window, the vibrations will set off the alarm. We made a quick video for you to see how it works.

The Glass Guard Vibration Alarm is good for windows or glass doors, though it can be used on non-glass surfaces. You can also adjust the sensitivity, and it takes 2x AA batteries. It’s got adhesive & you want to place it in the center of the glass.

Switch it on and you & the neighbors will be notified when a certain amount of vibration on the window is reached. For the ultimate protection, keep the GlassGuard Vibration Alarm on 24/7 for another layer of protection from a home invasion robbery.

Is The Mace Pepper Gun The Best Overall Self Defense Product?

Posted By admin

Blood everywhere in Chicago, and the city of brotherly love wants to hold the Olympics. The Olympics, the ultimate show of world-wide unity is considering plopping down in Murderville, USA on it’s next stop.

If you have been living under a rock, there has been a lot of violence pouring out of Chicago with a boy being killed on film earlier this week, and another beaten so bad by 3 men he is in a coma.

While you can walk around with a gun exposed in a holster in certain states, they don’t like that in Chicago, so you are at the mercy of waiting for the police to come protect you (NOT), or take matters into your own hands and carry some non-lethal weapons when they make it impossible to carry a lethal weapon.

Then I wake up with my blueberry waffles and coffee and see that Chicago’s hand gun ban is being considered by the Supreme Court next year and I say to myself, Sparky, WTF, didn’t they settle this already and we moved on to bigger & better things like Cash for Clunkers? Which we will offer after this post…

Anyway, if they are banning guns in Chicago, and the murder rates are spiking through the roof, then it’s time to take matters into my own hands.

So I pulled out my Mace Pepper Gun, which looks like a small flare gun. It’s easy to put in a purse or pocket, or carry in a holster. It shoots the 10% Hot, Hot, HOT Mace pepper spray up to 25 feet, and there ain’t nothing besides a gun or some pepper balls that will shoot further.

The TASER C2 only is good for 12-15 feet, then the wires drift too far apart to be accurate. 25 feet is a long way, and you can shoot it 7 x, so even if 3-5 punks are running at you, you can still take them all out with one cartridge.

You can also pick-up additional cartridges in both pepper spray, or practice with a inert cartridge that has no pepper spray, just the propellent so simulate how far it shoots.

If you live in Chicago, I would not travel alone, nor without a Mace Pepper gun, a TASER C2, a Kuboton, and a telescopic steel baton.

Come get me sucka!
