Does the flashlight have to be on to shock someone?

Yes. Shock will not work unless flashlight is on, and there are two separate buttons.
478417
The light does need to be in on position before the second switch on the bottom becomes active for the taser.
478418
Yes. That's to help prevent accidental shock. But it is set up for easy use.
478419
Yes it does. Which is fine in the circumstances because you'd rather blind someone first before you have to resort to shocking them. 9/10 times the light works before you have to actually taze.

Yes the flashlight has to be on to shock someone. There's two buttons one you push up for the flashlight and a button to turn on taser the taser will not turn on at all if light button is not in the position (On)

Yes, the light does have to be turned off to operate the stun. However, if you are close enough to use the stun, you will not need the light. Overall, I am quite pleased with the product. I am glad I purchased it.

there is a little on/off slide switch on bottom----the only time u want it on--is when u want to use the flashlight or// may be gonna use the stun gun--very shortly. leave switch off/when charging. remember--"cap" must be off for the electrodes to be exposed !! u always leave it off--when not in use !!

Lilly, I don't think so.I don't see one on mine. I do know that the light is bright and can be used to temporarily blind the person. If they take it away from you and you have it in the shock mode, hopefully by grabbing the longer end they will get shocked. If you don't have it set to stun, then they could probably use it against you. I purchased mine for when I walk my little dog. Hope this helps.

yeah sure, if you are using this stun gun, but you are grabbing or touching this people, I think you can shock youself.

No, it's actually a switch. Pushing the switch up will keep the flashlight on.

Well I haven't been attacked, but it's like any other device that shocks people. You have to touch it to them while holding down the button to administer the shock.

There is a button on the light itself, and I don't mean the base, which controls the flashlight, and can be set for a flashing light, a continual light, or no light at all. That button controls the flashlight itself, so don't be afraid to be the boss.

I can't give you an answer on this question, simply because mine never worked as the stun. It only worked as a flashlight. I do not recommend this product.

Its not an on off toggle like a normal flashlight. Its a programmable button that is a momentary toggle.

No it does not, Instead the on off switch is located so your trigger finger can easily slide to left to turn on. Then right to turn off. I think it is perfect for using flashlight quickly.

You must touch the attacker with it. The prongs are on the head of the flashlight.

You have to have the remote in hand. Honestly though we haven't even used the shock. It has been effective just using vibrate on level 4.

No, and it's a problem with this light. Every time you turn it on it goes to the next state, bright, medium, dim, strobe, SOS then back to bright. I don't think the designers of this light were very familiar with using flashlights.

I believe there is a tiny rubber "plug" on the body of the flashlight that you plug into....I gave it away as a gift awhile ago so I can't be sure.

There is a holster and it has a double switch to work the stun. The switch forward one time for the light and forward again to activate the gun, but then you have to push a button.
