TAMPA, Fla., February 19, 2008, Stinger Systems, Inc. (OTCBB: STIY), a leader in electro-stun technology today announced that a research group at a major U.S. University has completed a study comparing the output of the Stinger S-200 projectile stun gun to the Taser M-26 and Taser X-26 in an animal model. Details of the study are being withheld pending scientific publication. However, among other findings, the peak current of the Taser brand X-26 was approximately 75% higher than the peak current of the Stinger S-200, and the peak current of the Taser brand M-26 was approximately 750% higher than the peak current of the Stinger S-200 peak current of the S-200. The Company believes that a reduction in current may be possibly important from a safety perspective, when one or both of the probes strike the chest of the subject. Further research will test whether this reduction in delivered current translates into a safer device. Since the S-200 effectively disables with lower current, Stinger intends to move to have this study accepted into evidence at trial of Case CV-07-0042-PHX-MHM, that is Taser International, Inc (NASDAQ:TASR). v. Stinger Systems, Inc
Ron Bellistri stated “The Stinger S-200 has demonstrated comparable knock-down power to the Taser devices. We now have independent data from a premier university that confirms that the S-200 achieves this level of incapacitation while delivering peak current levels to the animals that are only a fraction of the levels delivered by the Taser devices. Current is what is dangerous, even Taser acknowledges that fact in their sales literature (page 15 of their sales brochure quotes ‘It’s not the volts, but the amperes that matter for electrical safety). ”
