Here’s a full strength 10% solution of oleoresin capsicum in a container that has ten 1 second bursts up to 15 feet away. The ballistic stream is strong enough to reduce or eliminate blow back in windy conditions. The reflective armband alerts drivers at night. This pepper spray has a unique strap that goes on your bicep for easy access whether you’re on foot or riding a bicycle. The tear away design puts this powerful pepper spray immediately at your disposal.

The powerful Sabre Red Duathlete Pepper Spray has approximately 4 times the major capsaicinoids used by law enforcement agencies. That makes it one of the most powerful pepper sprays on the marketplace. It also has the safety flip top to prevent accidental discharge. It also works against dog attacks.

People who exercise outdoors like runners, walkers or cyclists don’t realize how vulnerable they are to assault. They usually go in relatively secluded areas at odd hours of the day and night to avoid crowds. This makes them more vulnerable to attack.

Sabre Spitfire is the fastest deploying and most compact keychain pepper spray. It allows you to fire from the hip or even behind you if grabbed. It uses replaceable canisters that contains enough spray for burts of 6 to 8 feet firing in a cone spray pattern. It is really for close encounters of the worst kind.

Spitfire Pepper Spray has 2 million Scoville heat units and .67% of major capsaicinoids (MC) in a 10% oleoresin capsicum concentration. This is roughly 4 times stronger than the .18% MC’s used by law enforcement.

What separates the Spitfire from other brands is the unique design that allows for a natural firing position from the hip that makes it faster to use than any other pepper spray. And since it’s on a key ring it is available all the time.

It is also available in black and purple and has a refill canisters available.

Home Security Tips-The Real Value Of Neighborhood Watch-Safety Tip Of The Week

click image for more details

Last week I attended some training for the neighborhood watch program where I am block Captain for my building. The lead trainer, who is a volunteer, talked a lot about home security issues in general safety issues affecting the city-namely the shortage of police officers in the current budget crisis.

He pointed out the importance of the neighborhood watch program, especially now with fewer police officers on the payroll. He told us that burglaries for example were up 10% in the city last year and so far this year were up 15%-one of the few areas of crime that’s on the increase.

We talked about some ideas that could be used to help improve your home security. Right at the top of the list were motion activated spotlights and security cameras. Our trainer told us that real security cameras can be expensive and that Fake Security Cameras were a viable alternative.

I found out that the local police department does training classes for both personal security and home security depending on availability of officers. They will even do a home safety audit.

He recommends keeping some Self Defense Products located around the house in case of a home invasion.

Pepper Spray Safety-Safety Tip Of The Week

click for more info

Self defense items have really caught on in the civilian community in the last decade or so. Law enforcement agencies have been using them for more than 50 years to help them in doing their jobs.

They are part of a “continuum of force” that law enforcement agencies use starting with a lawful command all the way up to the deadly force of a handgun. Self defense products provide a less than lethal way to get compliance of a lawful order.

For civilians self defense products are meant to disable an assailant long enough to give you time to get away from a dangerous situation. Pepper sprays are the most popular self defense product in the world. And just an FYI, they are on every police officer’s utility belt. Does that tell you how good they are?

Here are some pepper spray tips on how to use this self defense item safely and properly.

1. First make sure the pepper sprays are legal where you live. They are legal in all 50 states but some cities and states have restrictions on the amount of oleoresin capsicum, which is the main ingredient in all pepper sprays. OC, as it is called, is a derivative of one of the hottest peppers in the world cayenne pepper.

2. Second is to make sure that you know the capabilities of your pepper spray before you try it. Every pepper spray has an expiration date stamped on the bottom of the container. The distance (range) and number of sprays that are in each container are on the packaging. It doesn’t do you any good to have a pepper spray that sprays 8 feet when you’re 15 feet away from your assailant.

3. The third point is to learn how best to grip the pepper spray and how to access the button to activate it. Some sprays have a finger grips on the front so that they can be easily accessed in darkened conditions. Some sprays have flip top safeties others have safeties that slide from right to left. You need to practice with these so that when the time comes, and it will come, your reactions are second nature and can be done in a split-second.

4. Hold your pepper spray in an upright position. There’s only one pepper spray, the Mace Pepper Gun which can be held upside down and still work. It is the best value for long range self defense.

5. And last is to practice using your pepper spray. Wind conditions affect the disbursement of the pepper spray. You can get used to this and it is very important that you know how the wind will affect your pepper spray.

If you have any questions the distributor or dealer that you bought the pepper spray from can answer them. If not you need a new distributor or dealer! Some police departments offer training in pepper spray. If you feel the need some check with your local police department.

Remember pepper sprays can not only be used against human assailants but are first line of defense against dog attacks as well. Bear pepper sprays are a must to carry in the back country and work not only on bears, but mountain lions, coyotes, and just about any animal that you will find in the wild.
