摘要: he TASER X26 electronic control device (ECD) is a handgun-shaped that uses compressed nitrogen to fire darts ranging from 9 14 mm in length impale the clothes or skin of an individual up distance 35 ft. Wires connect device. The functions as constant current generator and delivers initial 50 000-V begin arcing shock (the actual voltage delivered body range 1400–2520 V), followed by electric pulses 105- 155-microsecond duration, at frequency ≈19 Hz (≈1140 times per minute), 80- 125-microcoulomb charge.
