I ordered 2 of these bad boys, one for me and one for my girlfriend. I have to say they more than impressed me, and are even thinner than I expected (it really can fit into a cigarette pack). One of my girlfriend’s major worries was the possibility that someone could take the device and use it against her. However she agreed to take this one because of its pin release strap. I have tested this feature by firing the stun mode then pulling the pin at the same time and it disarms perfectly. Myself on the other hand like this unit for all the other reasons. It comes with an extra pin that isn’t attached to a strap so if you happened to get into a scuffle you may not want it accidentally disarmed. I didn’t previously want to get one because stun guns used to be too bulky to carry, but this thing fits perfectly in my front pocket and will easily become something that I carry at all times like my cell phone. As far as the look and feel is concerned, you can tell that it’s a quality product and wouldn’t break easily (I’ve already dropped it so I know). The charger is a flip out plug that is placed on the opposite side from picture shown, it is flush with the unit when not being used. I haven’t had to use it on anyone yet and hope I don’t have to, but you can tell this thing packs a punch. It’s very loud so I would assume, all you would have to do is fire it a couple times in the air and any would be attacker should flee.
