Buyers especially noted the safety of the product for the environment - there are no special gases or toxic substances in the composition.

This is one of the oldest developments of the Tekhkrim company, which specializes in the production of self-defense equipment. The Hot Pepper gas canister has been produced since 2009 and has been popular. And in 2012, it underwent significant changes both in the external design and construction, and in the formulation of the irritant. Capsaicin has become cleaner, and the sprayed liquid, respectively, is more intensely colored, the contact spot is larger (up to 60 cm at a distance of 2 m) and spraying in the air is smaller. The developers decided to change in the direction of increase and the force of pressing the feed button. As a result, the safety and efficiency of use have increased, and the upgraded tool continues to receive positive reviews.

In the reviews, buyers note the high efficiency of the damaging substance - a concentrated extract from hot pepper instantly acts on the enemy, for a long time taking him out of his normal state. The advantages of the application are the possibility of spraying the substance over a wide temperature range, the composition does not lose its properties at -10 to +50 °C. A wide cloud of suspension 60x60 cm helps to hit the target quickly and without misses, however, for a large pack or several hooligans, the area of ​​​​damage is small.

The shocking effect of this gas cartridge will not leave a sudden enemy a single chance. The name is chosen perfectly: hot pepper extract, getting on the skin and mucous membranes, can cause a burning sensation of such strength that the attacker (who suddenly becomes a victim himself) loses orientation in space and is on the verge of a severe state of shock. This is not unfounded - you can easily find efficiency tests presented in video format on the net.

The use of this particular spray can has many advantages: the pepper composition acts for a long time and it is problematic to get rid of it - burning and lacrimation can last up to half an hour. Silent volley also increases the effectiveness of the application, and in combination with a large cloud of dispersion allows you to hit multiple targets at the same time. In addition, the democratic price is a plus. Of the minuses, users noted the impossibility of spraying in an enclosed space - there is a danger of falling into the range of the user himself.

One of the most "fighting" compositions for effective self-defense. Manufacturers note that the effect of the pepper mixture in this spray corresponds to a one-time use of 30,400 chili peppers. Like it or not, it is not known, but users are also extremely positive in their statements. Many who have tested "Pepper 11-A" unanimously declare its effectiveness against both aggressive animals and violent individuals of the human species.

The spray can has a number of advantages: a small amount of the product is enough to cause burning and pain in an attacker or an animal, the convenient shape of the spray can - the start key is well located on the body. However, buyers who have tested the tool in practice warn that a powerful dispenser at the outlet strongly sprays a burning composition and there is a danger for the user to get into a cloud of suspension.

Gas cartridge based on a mixture of tear gas (5%) and hot pepper extract (95%). Despite the aerosol type of spraying, the range of destruction is an impressive three meters - according to this indicator, the can is on a par with gel and jet self-defense means. This result was achieved due to an increase in throughput and a slight processing of the feeder, relative to the earlier Fakel GB. Thus, one can hope not only for the effect of the damaging substance, but also for the power of the released cloud of suspension, which (except for jokes) is capable of knocking a person down.

Among the advantages of the can, users note that the can can be used even in very windy weather - even oncoming air flows do not knock down the jet. The burning composition of the product instantly causes pain, it is enough to spray the product continuously for 3 seconds or make short “puffs” to create a multi-layer cloud of suspension. According to customer reviews, it can be seen that there are practically no flaws in the can.

Like the older model of the line - the Pfeffer Ko Fog gas cartridge - the Ko Jet was developed for the needs of the German police, so they both have characteristics that exceed ordinary civil defense equipment. The main advantage of the gel version is its exceptional range: it is able to eliminate the threat from a distance of up to 6 m. At the same time, it has all the advantages over the gas version - the absence of a respiratory effect, the ability to use indoors, and trouble-free operation in the wind or during rain.

The spray can has many advantages compared to domestic developments.These include a high concentration of capsaicin (7%), due to which there is an instant suppression of aggression. When the substance gets on the clothes, there is no burning residue, there is a rapid evaporation. Users highly appreciated the comfortable case, belt clip, comfortable pressing on the valve. Of the shortcomings, the high price is noted.

Some questions may arise regarding this rating position, since the Black gas cartridge is a combination of jet and aerosol spray types. Nevertheless, this combination is only beneficial for the remedy - the effect of the application is very good. According to users, it is convenient to use it both at a long distance against one aggressor, and at close range, if there are two or more targets. Thanks to the action of peppercorns and tear gas, the effect of which (when hit on the target) is at least half an hour, ensuring security is a matter of pressing a button.

The advantages of the gas cartridge are noted by users: the composition contains tear gas, the combination of aerosol and jet spray increases efficiency, it is possible to create a burning curtain from an annoying cloud. It can be used at a considerable distance from a criminal or an aggressive animal - the jet hits 3 meters. With such advantages, there is a downside to using the product - the user himself may find himself in a thick veil, so it is better to use the spray can on an outstretched arm.

A jet-type canister capable of causing significant damage to a potential aggressor.Despite the obvious belonging to the jet means, it has some dispersion of the volley (in the documentation, the method of spraying is indicated as "wide jet"). It contains capsaicin (read: hot pepper extract) and "Lilac" - a very good name for a combat irritant (at 0.38% content). Together with a three-meter range, the Sword is a very formidable self-defense weapon, and, moreover, at a very affordable price.

User reviews noted the advantages of the device for self-defense: the aggressor receives a long-term irritating effect on the skin and mucous membranes, which lasts from 20 minutes to 1 hour. This effect is provided by a mixture of pepper extract and irritant, which is in service with law enforcement officers. The spray can be used at a distance of up to 3 meters, and the effectiveness does not depend on the strength of wind or precipitation. In addition, the affordable price makes the device affordable for many. Of the minuses, it is noted that a directed long-term impact on an attacker can bring significant damage to health.

For obvious reasons, aerosols cannot be used in a car, subway or indoors. However, an aggressive attack can occur in any of these places, so it will not be superfluous to protect yourself with a domestically produced gel spray from the new series - "Fighter". Due to its thick and viscous consistency, its contents do not spray, but close up the senses. In addition to the direct irritant effect of pepper capsaicin, an unusual remedy can frighten an attacker, which allows you to win a few crucial minutes.

The advantages of the means of defense, users include ease of use in an extreme situation - you can hold it at any angle, the increased distance of hitting the enemy up to 3 meters allows you to keep the attacker away. Buyers note that the contents of the can have Russian certification, therefore, irreparable damage to the health of the attacker will not be caused. The disadvantages include point impact, the impossibility of hitting multiple targets with one click.

The potent aerosol-jet canister "Kortik" is another development in the field of self-defense from the well-known Russian manufacturer "TechKrim". The composition of the active damaging substance includes 40% capsicum oleoresin, an effective concentration of 2% and a military poison irritant used by the police with a Tcr of 0.3%. The interaction of the two components during jet spraying has a proactive effect, causing persistent pain.

Users noted the compactness of the packaging - the can is placed in a breast pocket, a small women's clutch. Effective at a distance of 1-1.5 meters. The volume is enough for 6 short-term "volleys" or 3 seconds of continuous pressing. Due to the high concentration of substances, this time is sufficient to neutralize an attacking enemy or an aggressive animal. Of the minuses, buyers identified the high cost of a can with such a small volume.

Sometimes situations arise when the use of a gas spray against vicious animals is ineffective - strong winds, limited space or long distances nullify the effect of substances or there is a danger of one's own poisoning. In these cases, the AC Control noise canister becomes the best option. Inside the tank is liquefied gas, which, when the release valve is pressed, acts under high pressure on the membrane. High ultrasound is emitted, perceived by the animal as noise of 130 dB at a distance of up to 3 km.

Users like the ease of use of the tool - just point it towards the source of the threat, press the trigger, and the sound itself finds the target. The effectiveness of the device lies in the pain in the eardrum of aggressive animals. The ultrasonic wave propagates faster than the gas jet, so it instantly puts aggressive animals to flight. Designed for 100-150 operations.Of the minuses, it is noted that it is necessary to observe the measures of one's own safety - to use at arm's length.

The Dobrynya self-defense device was developed in the arms capital of Russia by Tula craftsmen from the A + A company. It is intended for throwing liquid compositions in the face of an aggressive ill-wisher or a dog of large breeds. Small-sized aerosol cans Ø18 and 51 mm long are used as projectiles. At the same time, the device is bicaliber, with the help of an adapter, even more compact BAMs 13x50 mm can be used. Clip holds up to 5 charges.

The simple design includes a shock type trigger, a reliable mechanism ensures the effectiveness of the device at a distance of 1 to 5 meters. Users note the comfortable weight of Dobrynya - 175 grams without a loaded magazine is convenient to hold in your hand without feeling particularly heavy. High quality workmanship is also highlighted by buyers: all seams are well processed, the body is cast. Among the shortcomings, it was noted that spent gas cartridges fly up, which is not very convenient for using the device, for example, in a car.

As you know, the best gas cartridge is the one that is in the hand in case of force majeure. And vice versa, the most top-end tool will not help if it is hidden in the depths of a purse or handbag. In this regard, girls have the hardest time - there is usually no place for protective equipment in the pockets of their outfits.With a miniature spray can, the problem of where to put it so that it is always at hand disappears once and for all. "Control-AC" is similar in size to a tube of lipstick with a length and diameter of 8 and 2.5 cm, and thanks to the presence of a carabiner at the bottom, it can cling to the handles of the bag, which does not arouse suspicion and ensures accessibility at any time.

Among the advantages, users highlight the compact size and ease of carrying in a pocket, bag, the effectiveness of the composition with plant components, a significant impact distance of up to 2.5 meters, which increases to 4 m in calm weather without precipitation.

Wild animals are encountered not only by hunters and fishermen, but also by farmers, tourists and residents of remote settlements. To protect yourself from them, we advise you to stock up in advance with an Anti-Beast gas cylinder with a jet spray type. It contains a liquid saturated with plant extracts, the smell of which is extremely unpleasant for animals and makes them retreat away from its source. The volume of 650 ml is enough for 40 short-term clicks, so there is no need to order a new self-defense tool after each use. Due to the shape resembling a small fire extinguisher, it is convenient for both girls and men to use the product, but due to its size it is better to transport it in a car.

Users leave positive feedback about the product: the sprayer is effective against small and small warm-blooded animals, while not causing much harm to their health even with direct exposure. The pluses include a large volume, a convenient spray lever, an exposure range of up to 5 m. From the negative reviews, we can conclude that the active substance is not effective against aggressive people - it does not cause burning and tearing.

In appearance, this pepper spray resembles an unusually shaped pistol - its handle and barrel are reduced in order to lighten the weight and carry it in a pocket or a special holster. Permits are not required for its purchase and use, since, despite the form factor, it remains a gas cartridge with an active substance that is approved for use by ordinary citizens. The model has a very powerful spray: in 1 sec. it shoots out more than 10 g of an irritant, which instantly penetrates through the skin pores, acts on the nerve endings and causes a severe pain shock in the attacker. It does not cause any harm to his health, but for 20-30 minutes. deprives him of any ability to continue the attack.

The advantages of the device are in a simple design - compared to a gas pistol, you do not need to cock the trigger, remove the safety. Reliability is due to the impact type mechanism, there are practically no misfires, the cartridges do not jam. The gun does not depend on power sources such as "AA +" batteries.In addition, the user does not have to have shooting skills, the accuracy of the “shot” is not needed here - the device produces an aerosol damaging cloud. Of the shortcomings, it is worth noting that this pistol will not have a psychological impact on the criminal due to its small size and appearance.
