The new personal taser delivers the same voltage, but delivers fewer charges, because the battery in the handle is smaller.
It fires the same replaceable cartridge used in police tasers.
My friend fired it at another guy at a party, on a $100 bet - the guy fell over instantly, stiff as a board, and cracked his head, got a concussion.
Afterwards they realized that there are instructions that say if you are going to test it on a person, make sure that person is supported by something, because falling down and smashing your head is common during testing.
When fired, along with the darts, the cartridge sprays out 'confetti' that is serial numbered - so if you fire it, it sprays identifiers around the site.
