Trigger restriction device for conducted energy devices

A trigger restriction device for use with a conducted energy device (CED), the CED having a trigger well opening with two opposing sides, the trigger restriction device comprising:

• a blocking arm having a blocking side, a length and width, wherein the length is greater than the width;
• an upper arm integrally connected perpendicular to a top end of the blocking arm, wherein the blocking arm and the upper arm are a single fixed unit;
• and
• a top surface of the upper arm contiguous to the blocking side and containing an adhering contact section configured to adhere the device to only an inside of a trigger well when the upper arm is placed against a wall of the trigger well,
• wherein the trigger restriction device when attached to the trigger well wall, the blocking member extends over the trigger well to block access to the trigger well on one side of the CED while allowing access to the trigger well on an opposing side of the CED.

A method of training non-primary hand use of a conducted energy device (CED), the CED having a trigger, a primary hand side and a non-primary hand side and further having a trigger well defining a trigger well opening from the primary hand side to the non-primary hand side, the trigger well having an inside wall, wherein fingers of a user of the CED are able engage the trigger via the trigger well, comprising:

• forming a unitary single piece non-primary hand training device from at least one of a resin, plastic, rubber, nylon, and metal material, having a trigger well blocking member and an integral attachment member, wherein the attachment member has an outer surface with an adhesive fastening element configured for securement to an inside surface of the trigger well, when the non-primary hand training device is installed;
• orienting the non-primary hand training device so the blocking member is facing a primary hand side of the user and the outer surface of the attachment member is proximal to the inside surface of the trigger well;
• and
• attaching the adhesive fastening element to only the inside surface of the trigger well,
• wherein the method prevents use of the CED with a primary hand of the user, so as to train the user to use their non-primary hand for CED operation.

A trigger restriction device for use with a conducted energy device (CED), the CED having a trigger, a first side and a second side and further having a trigger well defining a trigger well opening from the first side to the second side, the trigger well having an inside wall, comprising:

• a blocking member having a first surface and an opposing inner second surface, a first end and an opposing distal second end, a first edge and an opposing second edge, wherein a length is defined between the first and second ends, wherein a width is defined between the first and second edges, wherein the length is greater than the width;
• an attachment member having a third surface and an opposing inner fourth surface, a third end and an opposing distal fourth end, a third edge and an opposing fourth edge, an attachment member length being defined between the third end and the fourth end, wherein the attachment member being integrally joined to the blocking member wherein the third end is adjacent to the first end, wherein the first surface of the blocking member and the third surface are contiguous, wherein the attachment member is in fixed position non-parallel to the blocking member, wherein the attachment member length dimension is less than the length of the blocking member, wherein a largest width of the attachment member is smaller than a largest width of the blocking member;
• and
• an adhesion-based fastener disposed on the third surface of the attachment member, the adhesion-based fastener being operably configured to attach only to the inside wall of the trigger well when the device is in use,
• wherein when the device is in use the blocking member is operably configured to block a portion of the trigger well opening on the first side of the CED, wherein the fingers of the primary hand of the user is prevented from accessing the trigger well from the first side of the CED while allowing the fingers of the non-primary hand of the user to access to the trigger well from the second side of the CED.
