Mace? Wrestle him to the floor? A net? Something with less lethal

Where did you get that information?


From their website.

http://www.taser.org/m18l.html

second paragraph.

They are intermixing peak and average values on that page - I'm not sure
why. I found a more informative page on their site containing more complete
power and energy computations:

http://www.taser.org/electrical-specifications.html

Peak values measured across 4000 Ohm are ~23,600 V, ~139,240 W, and ~5.9 A
with pulse duration of ~3.5 uS.
