The most popular, non-lethal, personal
defense product on the market today is the self defense spray (also
known as pepper spray). The primary chemical compound used in self
defense spray today is OC (Oleoresin Capsicum) which is a natural
chemical derived from hot pepper plants. OC pepper is an
inflammatory agent which causes two reactions when an individual is
sprayed with this type of pepper spray. First, the person's eyes
clamp shut, hard. If the person manages to open their eyes, they
are unable to see well because the OC pepper dilates the capillaries of
the eyes and causes temporary blindness. Second, an
immediate fit of uncontrollable coughing doubles the person over and
often sends them to their knees. The OC pepper causes an instant
inflammation of breathing tissues making breathing difficult. The
condition is temporary but very debilitating. OC pepper has the
affect of putting up a "brick wall" between the assailant and
victim even if they are on drugs, drunk or psychotic. For more
information about pepper sprays, see our Pepper/Defense Sprays FAQ
page.

Shot
Pepper Sprays |
Pepper
Shot is a 10% pepper spray rated at 2 million scoville heat units and
made with a very fine grain that is more effective than the coarser
grains of most other pepper sprays. In addition to causing an attacker
pain, Pepper Shot pepper spray swells the mucous membranes, which makes
breathing difficult, and swells the veins in the eyes, causing the eyes
to close. These effects last up to 45 minutes and cause no permanent
damage. All key chain sprays have quick-key releases. All pepper sprays,
except for the pen (PS-3), have locking actuators. |

and nausea, as well as dilating the eye capillaries resulting in
temporary blindness. The mucous membranes will swell to prevent all but
life support breathing causing the assailant to be temporarily
incapacitated. A one second burst of WildFire pepper spray will stop an
attacker for up to 45 minutes without causing permanent damage. |
