SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Jan. 18, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- TASER Self-Defense,
the consumer division of Axon Enterprise, Inc. (Nasdaq: AXON), the
global leader in connected public safety technologies, today
announced the TASER Bolt 2, the latest energy weapon in its
self-defense product line.
With this launch, TASER Self-Defense pushes the boundaries of
what's possible in personal safety devices. The Bolt 2 features a
15-foot range, discreet design, enhanced features for improved
accuracy in low-light, and the ability to alert emergency dispatch
when discharged (when paired with a companion app).
Using the same technology trusted by public safety, the TASER
Bolt 2 can immobilize attackers for up to 30 seconds, and features
LASER targeting and a high lumen light for night time usage.
Additionally, upon discharging the Bolt 2, a companion app can
alert dispatchers that a paired weapon has been discharged and
provides GPS location that is directly transmitted to police.
"We are excited to announce the launch of this next generation
personal safety device that will allow customers to protect
themselves with confidence," says Matt
Angorn, VP of Axon Consumer Products. "The enhancements and
safety features of the TASER Bolt 2 non-lethal energy weapon will
provide civilians with peace of mind and the ability to safely
protect themselves, their loved ones and their communities."
The new Bolt 2 was designed to be discreet. The new non-gun form
factor, straight edges and soft-touch finish make it easy to carry.
The device also features a safety cap designed to prevent
unintended discharges.
"Axon was founded with the mission to protect life," says
Rick Smith, CEO and founder of Axon.
"We are committed not only to offering safe, effective and
easy-to-use personal self-defense products, but also educating
consumers on ways to help protect themselves and avoid dangerous
situations."
The TASER Bolt 2 includes access to a network of certified
instructors for training and support as well as the Safe Escape
Replacement Guarantee*, which provides free replacement of any
device lost after being discharged in self-defense.
The TASER Bolt 2 costs $449 and is
available for preorder starting today and will start shipping in
Spring. Axon will be showcasing the TASER Bolt 2 along with other
consumer products at SHOT Show in Las
Vegas on January 18-21, at
booth number 43250.
