I have never used the taser but have tested it and it worked fine. Now it doesn't. Any trouble shooting tips?

My girlfriends did the same thing, and what I did was drain the battery down using the led light. Once it was almost dead I charged it for 2 days, and now it seems to be working fine.

As the battery gets low, the taser will not work but the light will still operate. Continued use, and the light will no longer shine. Make sure it is fully charged. If you have left it on the charger a long time and it still does not work, then check to see if the taser feels warm. If warm, then something is wrong with the switch. If cold, the taser is not charging and you need to determine if the charger is functional or the connection is bad by using a volt meter to test. If I lost you at this point, contact the vendor.

Make sure it is charged for at least 8 hours and also that the slide button is set to taser. Does the LED flashlight work? If these things don't work it sounds to be defective.

These typs of tasers work far better if you can hit bare skin with it & hold it there. It probably will not do much of anything through any kind of jacket or coat. You might have some success against denim jeans IF you can get the probes mostly through the fabric by pressing HARD. The BEST parts of the body to attack with this kind of taser is the chest & neck area but anywhere on the body you can get it against bare skin or through light weight clothing (think t-shirt thickness) and hold it for a couple/three seconds is better than nothing.Hope this helped.

No, the instructions state charging it more than 8 hours can damage the taser and void the warranty. But once fully charged you could leave it on say your night stand untill needed.

Maybe you got a defective one, my zapper works great! It does make a pop and loud noise when it gets a bug but it's effective. I hopefully don't sound weird but it's totally fun.

Mine worked fine right away. Either check your batteries, or, if they are working fine, you have something wrong with your opener. Good Luck!

You must push switch from light position to taser which will turn light off. They didn't include charging cord with one of mine.

You have a defective defuser. If I were you I'd be contacting the company you bought the defuser and giving them an earful. Sorry that happened to you.

It sounds as thought the sear isn't resetting. Check the action of the trigger bar, it may need to be adjusted. There are instructions how to do this on the Apex website.

it says to charge it every month which would be a good idea but I've had it for 6 months haven't charged it once and it still fires just fine the only part that sucks about it is that the Taser will not work why the light is on so that would be good to know in a panic situation when light is off taser works extremely well and is very loud

It has unlimited "shots" as long as it's charged. Keep in mind this isn't the type of taser that "shoots", it has two metal prongs on the end of the device that generates a spark between the two as long as youre holding down the button. I hope this helps answer your question! :)

I bought the cobra vendetta, and it no longer functions properly. It only detects cops when you ar e right next to them and then only with a very weak signal. It worked great for the first 6 months or so I owned it. I think it has something to do with the county getting all new police cars recently.

You have to make sure the magazine is full clipped in, try hitting the bottom of the magazine so Ivan hear it click and slide in to the gun an make sure the battery is charged because it doesn't come charged and Also make sure the battery is in correctly, then it should fire! Mine works perfectly

It's not your battery. When the triggers only work for a few seconds or not at all, it is repair time and it isn't one a user can complete. I've run into this same issue and it involves electronics that you cannot access within the handles. It is quite infuriating. Sorry.

If it doesn't work there is something wrong with your stun gun like mines :(

Does the red light turn on when you put it into the on position, and if yes do you hear a slight hum when pressing the button? (Don't do this for too long, as it will short out the circuit). If yes to both questions then the problem is most likely a lead that has slipped from its position on the front of the taser, in which case you'll have to screw it open, and correct the problem. If no to either question then there is a myriad of possible problems such as severing of wires, a bad piece in the circuit, and other things

First turn the unit on at the base. Then simply press the first button above the handle. That button toggles between the LED and the tazer. Buttons are labeled and very easy to use.

When you plug in the DC jack it disengages the battery circuit. It may be stuck, and not re-engaging the circuit when pulled out. Try plugging in the barrel jack and popping it back out a few times (with no power going to it).
