Review of the Streetwise 3-in-1 Rechargeable Security Guard Flashlight Stun Baton

If there is a flashlight baton that is comparable to the Maglite brand flashlight batons, it is the Streetwise 3-in-1 Rechargeable Security Guard. I have used flashlight batons over the years for home security and have found them to be not only durable, but also reliable.

The 3-in-1 Security Guard measures 15″ in length and has a handle circumference of 4-1/2″. The handle is made of aluminum with a non-slip grip. The lamp circumference measures 6-1/2″ and is made of ABS plastic. Just like a Maglite flashlight baton, it is bigger in the light bulb end and tapers to the smaller circumferential size in the aluminum handle end. The light bulb is a halogen bulb which is several times brighter than a regular flashlight.

A Maglite flashlight baton can weigh as much as 24 oz. including batteries. With the Security Guard, however, you do not have to worry about weight since it weighs a very puny 9 oz. The cool thing about the Security Guard is that it already contains an integral rechargeable battery core. That means you do not have to spend hundreds of dollars a year on expensive alkaline batteries since this flashlight baton already comes with a recharger cord that you can attach to the wall outlet. After your Security Guard flashlight baton is fully charged, it is ready for use.

Why is it called a 3-in-1?

The Security Guard flashlight baton contains three features.

• stun gun
• flashlight
• personal alarm

Again, this is a combination unit compared to a Maglite flashlight which only shines light or a traditional stun gun which only has a stun feature.

Additionally, you have the added benefit of a personal alarm on this unit to scare off an assailant or to notify others at a distance that you are in danger.

What are the effects of the stun gun feature on the assailant?

• Touching your attacker with the contact probes for less than one second will result in minor muscle contractions and have a repelling effect.
• Touching your attacker for one to two seconds will cause muscle spasticity and a dazed mental state.
• Touching him for three to five seconds will cause loss of balance and muscle control along with total mental confusion and disorientation. If you stun him, he will stay down long enough for you to call for help. 

What about accidental discharge?

There is a safety switch at the butt end of the aluminum handle. Just switch it on and a red LED on the handle tells you that the unit is on and ready for action. The three features of the Security Guard are only operable if the safety switch is in the “on” position. This prevents accidental discharge of your self defense baton.

Are your hands full? Not a problem, the Security Guard also comes with a carrying strap so that you can carry the baton with you like a purse or a tote bag.

This is a great self defense tool that you can use at home or keep in your car. For ladies who need the feeling of added safety, this is the stun gun baton that is perfect for use at home.
