James Watson, 38, of Stonehill Road, Chiswick, west London also smashed the window of a passing car with the weapon.
At Ealing Magistrates' Court he was convicted of possession of an offensive weapon; criminal damage and causing fear of provocation of violence.
Watson was sentenced to nine months imprisonment.
The court heard that on Saturday, August 20 at approximately 6:10am, police were called to a disturbance in Nallhead Road, Feltham.
Officers attended and found an intoxicated Watson, nearby.
He then produced an extendable baton from his pocket and started to threaten officers.
Watson, was challenged with the officer’s taser and was sprayed with an Incapacitant spray (PAVA).
Police Constable Ed Griffiths, of the Emergency Response Policing Team based at Feltham, said: “It is a good result all round as he was causing a disturbance early in the morning as people when local residents should be able to have a peaceful start to their day and not have to encounter his violent behaviour.
“The swift action taken by Police, CPS and courts demonstrates that such violent anti social behaviour will not be tolerated in the borough of Hounslow.”
