Post Taser International - New C2 Taser Product Review

Taser International has announced the a new product the Taser C2 . Lets take a look at the outline of this Taser .

Replaceable Cartridge
Pros - It's easly accessable and fast to change
Cons - 2 pack cost you $49.95, 4 pack cost you $99.99

Range 0 - 15 feet
Pros - 15 feet is qutie the distance
Cons - It dosen't go around corners

Anti-Felon ID System
Pros - A computer backround check will deter misuse
Cons - What if another person gets there hands on it? Can they use it under your backround check?

Intergrated LED Light
Pros - It's good to have a light built into any less lethal device
Cons - None

Optional Laser Site
Pros - If you can't aim you will be able to now
Cons - It's only $50 more

Trigger Safety Cover
Pros - Always good to have a safety device
Cons - How much extra time will it take to release the safety?

Lithium Power Magazine
Pros - Last 50 + Firings
Cons - $30 to replace but how many times to you plan on using it?

Ergonmic Hand Grip
Pros - Fits any size
Cons - When they say fits any size does that mean kids too?

Lifetime Replacement Warranty
Pros - Lifetime is always good
Cons - None


From the above I will give the C2 Taser a 8.5 for options and a 9.0 for design. They have gone a long way from the M18 Advanced Taser to the X26 Taser and now to the C2 Taser . As far as security goes for the new taser I'm not to bedazled by it's backround check unless it does a palm scan every time to check to see if the user is authorized? If anyone can find information on this please post it: Below you will find the spec from Taser International on the Taser C2 .

Outstanding product review, I myself am in the process of doing a product review on another Taser product and will use yours as a template. Great Job.

I want one. What would it take to get one of those? That looked like it would get the job done and then some.

I have bought one from there. They work really well and have a good selection of brands and types.

Cool Taser C2

I'm sure that the C2 is a great Taser for what it is. The problem is that as many of you know Tasers do not always work. My partner and I both carry the M series Advanced Taser. Last time I tried to use the Taser on a subject it had no effect. So my partner discharged his Taser...... with no effect. Fortunately I've never met anyone who was resistant to Fox Defense Spray so it wasn't the end of the world.

The problem I have with the C2 is that it is advertised as the perfect solution to less lethal personal and home defense. I saw an infomercial with John Bunnel that made the Taser seem like it had a 100% success rate. This simply isn't true. Also the Taser is only effective against one person at a time, and can only "shoot" one person. Any other attacker would have to be "drive stunned" and that means having to get may too close. My fear is that people will get a false sense of security with this product.
