In TASER-style devices, which description matches the discharge electrodes?

• A. Conventional stun gun
• B. Stun baton
• C. Dart firing stun gun
• D. Pen stun device

Answer: (C)

Discharge electrodes in TASER-style devices are the two small electrode tips mounted on or integrated into the projectiles that are fired from the unit. When the device shoots out these darts, conductive wires run back to the body of the device, and the high-voltage, pulsed current travels through each electrode into the target. This setup allows energizing the target at a distance instead of requiring skin-to-skin contact. The other forms rely on fixed contact points on the device or a close-quarters design, so they don’t use fired darts with remote electrodes. That distance-capable, dual-electrode arrangement is what defines the description as a dart firing stun gun.
