Stinger Systems

Stinger Systems, Inc. was founded in March 2000 as Electronic Defense Technology, LLC. Stinger entered the market to produce a quality line of less-lethal electronic products to law enforcement agencies particularly of the criminal justice system.

Stinger's first products included the Ultron® II handheld contact stun device, the ICE Shield™ electronic power shield, and the Band-It™ electronic prisoner and defendant control system. Stinger also was responsible for nationwide training of product users having provided over 70,000 officers with complete document training in the event of litigation over product use.
