Police Strength Pepper Spray

I have purchased a couple dozen of these...I keep one in my car, two in my home and one on my person at all times. I have given many away to friends as gifts to assure they they are protected as well. With the rising crime in m city (as well as my state and our country), it is paramount that we protect ourselves. What I like about this device is that it is police model and provides dual protection with both pepper spray and tear gas. In addition, the spray contains UV Dye so perpetrators can easily be identified. This device affords one protection without having to use a lethal device. I cannot endorse this product more strongly; it's simple and easy to use, gives up to twenty bursts with an approximate 12 foot range, and the effectiveness lasts until the expiration date which is three years from date of issue, which is printed on the device. I will never be without these.

I trust the Mace brand for this kind of consumer product fairly well. I've had them in the past. The literature states that unlike many others sprays this product is a mixture of pepper (capsicum) and CS (tear gas type). This is not a toy and should be used by adults at arm's length pointing away from you with great caution. Never spray it at someone to see if it works well -- it is a real breathing and choking hazard, most acutely for anyone with a deficit like COPD or elderly etc. It's a product you keep and hope you never need like a fire extinguisher, but that means you do have to check the chemical for going flat occasionally (a small whiff at a distance of a quick Spritz fired in the opposite direction is more than enough) or replace it regularly to be sure it is going to be fully effective if needed after lengthy storage. Leakage with this system should not be a problem and the capacity is reasonable to get you through at least one emergency.

I never needed to use it which is great! But I had it clipped to my purse and the TSA confiscated that PIA. Be sure to pack it in a checked bag as you can’t carry it onto a plane. And don’t say bomb. 😊

I just tested this and it sprays a STREAM, not a SPRAY. You should really test this out to become familiar with it. It does spray a PURPLE stream which i'm assuming is the dye. I can smell it faintly after I spray it. Hopefully will never need to use it, but with a stream coming from this, you really need to be good at aiming. The mace bottle does not fit well in my hand (it has grooves). The index finger groove is almost directly under the hole where the mace comes out, so you better be careful about using it and possibly touching your face/eyes/nose. I can only imagine it would be tougher for females with smaller hands. Minus 1 star for grip comfort and that it's a stream and not a spray.

Easy to use, can fit in your pocket or purse, Or keep at home to use for self defense on an intruder.

Safety is everything , quality! Cost and the glowing criminal easy to be captured

Nice handy size .

I have owned this product for approximately the past 15 years and it works great! Always remember to be standing upwind while using any kind of pepper spray it is not like the gel pepper spray will blow back in your face and yes, it does hurt!!! lol Very easy to conceal very easy to use great safety feature with top flip up above dispensing button throw it in your front pocket. Nobody will ever know you even have it. The clip on the older models was a much better design and I wish they would go back to it, the clip on the newer ones like this one does have a tendency to break after time. Keep in mind I have mine on me seven days a week 10 hours a day so it may have something to do with the clip breaking but excellent choice.
