If you're one who values the freedom you get from jogging or walking in solitude, you also know how disappointing it is to be held back for safety reasons. Arm yourself with the confidence that you have pepper spray at your disposal should you need it. Unlike MACE or tear gas, which are irritants, pepper spray is an inflammatory agent containing the active ingredient oleoresin capsicum (OC) from cayenne peppers. It results in temporary blindness, instant inflammation of breathing tissues and an intense burning sensation on the surface of the skin. It lasts from 15 to 60 minutes – plenty long for your escape.

The 11-gram spray emits approximately 10 short bursts up to 10 feet. 2% OC is within the legal limit for the state of Michigan. Check your state for restriction information. Nonflammable.
