Stinger Systems is not making any representations about the safety of either Taser or Stinger devices, rather is just posting medical study information

Tasers: Reliable?"The three officers shot Wrobel about five times with a Taser to "little or no effect," Tyler said.

It eventually took five law enforcement officers to handcuff him."

Taser Troubles for Chattanooga Police But when an unusual amount of them started to malfunction, the department wanted to know why. http://www.newschannel9.com/articles/taser_14424___article.html/

National Study:  . A single application of a Taser could not be relied upon to be successful unfailingly. Indeed, Taser was "ineffective" 23% of the time from a single application. However, the researchers point out, "Taser training stresses the use of multiple applications in order to bring a suspect under controlhttp://www.policeone.com/writers/columnists/ForceScience/articles/120718/

Deaths occurring while using a stun device during an arrest or transport

• Taser: 300+• Stinger: 0• Stinger Stun devices have been used for eight

years, including Band-It and Ice Shield

• Stinger Systems is not inferring or stating the Taser devices had anything to do with the aforementioned deaths but is just stating arrest statistics

If you are sued,What are the costs to a

department?• Taser has gone to court 69 times for the

use of Tasers in the field

• Stinger: Zero times sued by the use of its products

• Stinger offers co-insurance to departments under its liability policy, Taser does not

Taser Does In Fact Use an Explosive Primer in their Cartridge

Cartridge components

Question: Is Taser Shipping Their Cartridges, Batteries, and Primers Properly?

Should they be shipping DG?

• IATA Regulations to be followed when shipping international are as follows for the cartridges and batteries. (IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations, 48th Edition).

• Cartridges with primers are classified as explosives, Class 1.4S. the UN number is UN0012 (Cartridges, Small Arms). They fall under Packing Group II (medium danger) and Packing Instruction 130, which states inner packaging is not required and intermediate packaging is not required. These items can ship  via passenger or cargo, but the general packing requirements of Section 5 - Subsection 5.0.2, 5.1.0 and 5.1.1 must be followed, which means the 1.4S label on the box, a dangerous goods declaration and packed so if anything causes activation the darts will not penetrate the packaging. Another label is on the outside of the box stating the net and gross explosive amount and a copy of the material safety data sheet included with the commercial invoice and airway bill.

• Lithium Ion batteries are classified as Class 9. The UN number is UN3091 (Lithium batteries packed with equipment) or UN 3090 (Lithium Batteries) They fall under Packing Group II and Packing Instruction 918 (903 for just batteries). These aren't a problem until you ship more than 12 in a package and the package is over 10 pounds; otherwise, they cannot go passenger - only cargo aircraft - and would need the Danger label on the box, and a dangerous goods declaration and material safety data sheet. 

• CFR49 Regulations to be followed when shipping domestic air.• Cartridges are shipped per Packing Instruction exception 173.63 and related instructions 173.60,

173.61, and 173.62 and 172.204. This requires the box to have the ORM-D AIR sticker, dangerous goods declaration and material safety data sheet.

NIJ Study Facts• Taser International is being sued by Stinger Systems for false

advertising.• The NIJ study Taser uses to compare products was initiated in 2005

for only $37,000 to compare Stinger’s older model weapons to the Tasers.

• Stinger did not even have the S-200 as a concept product in 2005• The first release of the Stinger S-200 was in November 2006. NIJ

received a first release weapon in December 2006.• Almost every aspect of the S-200 has changed including cartridge

design, wires, and darts. Internal circuits and design molds. • To Stinger’s knowledge Taser has NO studies comparing the

current S-200 to its products.

Real Testimonials • Chief Darren Jaros commented, “I had an opportunity to evaluate a

Stinger S-200 from a neighboring agency whom is carrying them. After experiencing the effects of the Stinger S-200 and closely evaluating the Taser brand X-26, I easily came to the conclusion that not only was the Stinger far superior to the Taser, I like the fact that Stinger exclusively sells to the law enforcement community at a more affordable cost. I researched all the information out on the Internet and concluded that there is no current information or studies that reflect negatively on the new Stinger S-200 that I am purchasing.

• After I took a hit with the Stinger, there is no way I believe any of the conclusions that were reached by some so called independent tests and found those tests to be an unfair and bias study that has nothing to do with the new Stinger S-200’s.
