Stun Guns, Tasers are the same but different.
 
All Tasers are stun guns but not all stun guns are Tasers.
Tasers and stun guns are non-lethal electronic self-defense weapons. I know you read in the paper... “A Taser killed a suspect...” but the newspapers never print the follow-up report that, under investigation, it was found it was not the Taser that killed them it was drugs, alcohol, etc. Think about it, every law officer must be Tasered before being issued a Taser, No officer has died, none have even gone to the hospital. Tasers and stun guns do not kill.
A Taser is a stun gun which shoots into the assailant two (electrodes) barbs attached to wires. The citizen's Taser cartridge shoots barbs up to 15 feet and the law enforcement cartridges shoots as far as 35 feet. All Tasers convert to a stun gun by removing the cartridge.
Tasers Investment: C2 $299.95 to X26c $995.95.Replacement cartridges are $30.00 per shot. All Taser models are 50,000 volts.
A Taser's performance is outstanding as it allows you to shoot up to 15 feet to stop an assailant. Sighting is simplified by the built-in laser. You line up your “red laser dot” on your assailant and press the firing button. The Taser will fire the two shocking electric barbs in a vertical pattern. Both barbs must contact the bad guy to be effective. The odds are you will hit your target.
If you miss the target, there is added protection with a Taser because you may remove the spent cartridge and your Taser becomes a stun gun. You may then zap your assailant with a powerful 50,000 volts. Tasers have a higher amperage than stun guns making them pack more punch.
Stun Guns Investment: 150,000 volts $20.00 to 2,000,000 $149.95.
Stun guns come in assorted sizes and voltages. In order to “drop” a bad guy you need at least 500,000 volts. The higher the voltage the faster the stun gun will drop the bad guy. You want the highest voltage stun gun (over 500,000 volts) you can afford. As a rule of thumb, 500,000 volts will take about three seconds to drop your assailant and the 2 million volts will drop them in less than a second. 
I recommend the tested Shock n' Awe Body Guard stun gun because of its full two million volts that really pack a wallop.
The complaint most often heard about a stun gun is that you have to be up close to use it. This is only partially true. It is true, if you want to drop the bad guy to the ground you must touch the assailant, but what is your real objective? Your safety. You are not trying to be a hero: you want to be safe, and to prevent a violent outcome.
In 99 percent of the time you can avoid a problem by simply firing your stun gun in the air. The loud crackling sound of the two million volt Shock 'n Awe stun gun can be heard over a hundred yards away. 
Case in point. One of our clients after having her stun gun almost a year with no provocation to use it, she discovered she was being followed in the mall parking lot. She would speed up and the guy would speed up, when she slowed down he also slowed down. She removed her two million volt stun gun from her purse and fired two short warning blasts in the air. She said it was like a cartoon. The guy spun around and quickly fast-walked away. She remained safe.
So you do NOT have to be up close to use a stun gun. 
Which is best, a Taser or a Stun Gun? This depends on your needs. If there is only one choice I would recommend a two million volt stun gun over the Taser.
If someone comes after you with a knife, you might like a Taser. Most other occasions the two million volt stun gun will handle the emergency. I carry the two million volt Shock 'n Awe stun gun everywhere I go. It is clipped to my belt and looks like a cell phone. My wife carries 2 two million volt Shock 'n Awe's, one attached to the sun visor on her car, the other in her purse along with her blue C2 Taser. As Mr. T would say, “I pity the Fool... who messes with her.”

The HP Pavilion laptop has an AMD Dual core processor, hard drive of capacity 7,200rpm and a memory of 4GB. It has great looks and has many ports. But, the battery life of the laptop is less. The laptop has the typical HP finish, ‘Moonlight Imprint’ and the body is a plastic one. The laptop has a snowy white color with a neat pattern of gray curved lines.
