Stun Gun for Your Keychain
If you have to travel the streets, take the bus, or even just walk through a dark parking lot at night, you might feel safer with some kind of personal protection. There are quite a few devices you can get, ranging from mace to kubotans, that can fit in your purse or hook onto your keychain. I thought this stun gun (well actually, it’s a “stun pen”) from Streetwise was a cool idea.
If someone attacks you, you can zap them with 800,000 volts (the “highest voltage pen type stun gun available today”) that will surely convince them to leave you alone. They’ll be effectively stunned for long enough for you to get away. The pen also includes a long-lasting LED flashlight that can help you see the lock when you’re opening your car or unlocking the front door on a dark night.
The gadget can be attached to your keychain and costs $80 from Amazon. It would make a good Christmas present for anyone you care about who often has to walk alone in the evening.
