Here are some of my favorite parts of the article.
(Laser Energetics: Subduing the Bad Guy with Non-Lethal Force by Kathleen McGinn Spring)

- The reception they have received so far has been postive. “Everyone says they want them yesterday,” he says.

- Battis says that he is looking for a large facility in Mercer County in which he will manufacture the dazers. He plans to hire “hundreds” of workers at all levels to staff the operation, and says that he is about to seek incentives from goverment to create the jobs.

- Battis can testify that it works. “I dazed myself,” he says. “It was awful. I was sick all day.” He says that during one sales demonstration a swat team member, a “tough guy” who had been tasered something like 20 times, insisted on being hit with the dazer. “We made him close his eyes,” says Battis. “We shined it five seconds at his closed eyes.” The effect was immediate. “He couldn’t walk or talk. He asked to be taken to the bathroom, and he stayed there.”

- ...each meets the American National Standard Institute standard for the safe use of lasers.
