The effective usage of a TASER is limited by a number of factors. These wires are 35 feet in length, so they have a maximum range of just over 10m. In fact, the optimal range of a TASER X26P is about 2-3 meters. Remember how the bottom probe is pointed slightly downwards? When fired from about 3m away, the probes will have separated enough that they are about 30cm apart from each other when they hit the target. If the target is closer than 2-3 meters, the probes will be too close together for the spread to cause NMI in enough muscles for it to be effective.

Consider a situation when a person has armed themselves with a knife. Police are talking to the person, when all of a sudden the person raises the knife and runs at police in an attempt to stab the officers. A police officer fires a TASER, but only one probe strikes the person with the second falling harmlessly to the ground. The TASER deployment has been completely unsuccessful, and the officer has no time to reload and attempt to fire a second shot before the person has reached them. In this situation the officer has failed in their one and only attempt to stop the threat, and they will likely be killed.

These probes are aligned vertically, so the top probe travels through the air in a (relatively) straight line, while the bottom probe points downwards slightly (about an 8 degree angle), so it travels through the air towards the ground. The distance between the two probes when they strike their target is called a spread, and the greater the spread between the probes, the more NMI is achieved, and the more effective the TASER deployment is.

When a TASER is fired, two wires with metal probes on the end are discharged and travel through the air from the device in the direction which it is aimed. An electrical current is sent through the wires, and if both probes have landed on something conductive (like a person), an electrical circuit is formed. This closed electrical circuit means that electricity can flow between the two probes, which will cause the muscles in the area between the probes to lock up and become unresponsive. This is called Neural Muscular Incapacitation (NMI). The TASER will automatically stop the electrical current after 5 seconds, or earlier if it is deactivated.

Consider a scenario where a person is shot with a TASER but the probes land about 10cm apart on the arm and shoulder. The arm would be affected by NMI, but the person would still be able to move around and use their other arm. If that person was armed with a knife or a gun they would still be a threat.

So current police training is that when an offender is armed with an edged weapon, the appropriate use of force option to deal with the threat of death or grievous bodily harm is a firearm. Police will only use lethal force to deal with this threat when there are no other less than lethal options available to them, but in a situation when an armed offender is running towards an officer with a knife, shooting at the offender is the only effective way to reliably stop the threat.

Another limitation of the TASER is the fact that both probes need to strike and remain embedded in the target for the device to work. If only one probe hits the target, then no electrical circuit is completed, and the device is useless. The TASER X26P is a single shot device, and while it does carry a spare cartridge, it is time consuming and requires the use of fine motor skills to reload. In a stressful situation the increased adrenaline levels cause us to lose our fine motor skills, making this task very difficult.

A 2019 report from the USA (https://www.npr.org/2019/06/27/729922975/despite-widespread-use-police-rate-tasers-as-less-effective-than-believed) shows that data from a number of police departments suggest that the effectiveness rate of a TASER in an operational environment is only between 54% and 79%. So when a police officer fires a TASER at a person who is threatening to kill them, there could be as little as a 54% chance that the TASER will actually be effective. And if it doesn’t, it’s almost certain that the officer will die.
