Stun Baton
From Combine OverWiki, the English Half-Life Wikia
The Stun Baton is an electric baton used by Civil Protection officers to subdue citizens. It is only seen in the first chapter of Half Life 2, Point Insertion, and cannot be used by the player. It is, however, usable in Half Life 2 Deathmatch and Garry's Mod.
[edit] Usage
In Half Life 2, Civil Protection officers often use the baton to beat citizens if they fail to comply with Combine rules and regulations. Stun Batons are also used in Civil Protection raids to subdue targeted citizens or resistance members.
In Half Life 2 Deathmatch, the stun baton is a usable weapon and is very similar in function to the Crowbar. It's slower than the crowbar, but does slightly more damage. It is given to players who spawn with Combine player models.
Interestingly, while Gordon Freeman can't use the baton as a weapon, it can be picked up and used as a battery, recharging his HEV Suit's power by 15 percent. This suggests that the stun rod contains a standard Combine battery or capacitor with a standard Combine energy outlet. Strangely, the stunstick simply disappears once it is dropped if the player kills the CP from range.
