When a user deploys the TASER Pulse+, Noonlight is notified and contacts emergency services to send help to the user’s location using real-time GPS tracking provided through the Noonlight mobile application. The TASER Pulse+ can be effective from 15 ft. (4.6 m) away, and cycles for 30 seconds. If used in self-defense and left at the scene, the TASER Pulse+ may be replaced free of charge under Axon’s Safe Escape Product Replacement Guarantee.
“Self-defense situations can be scary and overwhelming for victims,” says TASER Self-Defense Director of Consumer Products, Annie Pratt. “We want our customers to focus on one thing only: Getting to safety. That is why we created the TASER Pulse+. With the TASER Pulse+, customers just need to aim, pull the trigger, and run knowing that help is on the way.”
“Our partnership with TASER Self-Defense is the perfect example of what the future of safety should be in our ever-evolving world of technology and connected devices,” says Noonlight co-founder, Nick Droege. “Noonlight is working with innovative companies like TASER Self-Defense to make safety automatic, where the burden is no longer on the individual in an emergency to call for help.”
Droege added, “Starting today, companies with Bluetooth-enabled products can directly integrate with the Noonlight mobile application through our Bluetooth plugin for free, providing enhanced safety and emergency response capabilities to protect and comfort customers anywhere in the United States.”
