    I couldn't see these having legality in Ireland, also I could foresee them being outlawed as a security treat at airports entering public buildings, nightclubs etc.

    "A new iPhone 4 case that comes with a built-in stun gun and battery pack is to let users help themselves instead of calling for help should they ever be faced with an attacker.

    Company Yellow Jacket is calling its gadget the "world’s first iPhone 4 stun gun case". The case contains a 650,000-volt stun gun and is capable of fuelling a phone with up to 20 hours of additional standby battery, the company said.

    “We have designed our iPhone 4 stun gun case to be easily deployable with one hand. In less than two seconds, both safety mechanisms can be deactivated and the Yellow Jacket stun gun is ready for action. Compare this to a regular stun gun which can take five to 10 seconds to find and deploy," Yellow Jacket stated on its website".

    I imagine the legality of these is no different to regular stun guns. Which varies from place to place. Obviously illegal to carry on a plane everywhere.
