Bear Spray Guidelines

Spray Time or Volume; What Would you Prefer?

 

When other bear spray manufacturers claim to be the only company to meet certain “guidelines,” who are they fooling?  The only requirement for bear pepper spray is that it is EPA registered. Other than that There are no government guidelines, EPA or Otherwise.  To assert otherwise is only a marketing ploy.

 

You have to ask yourself why a company that claims to offer such a great, unrivaled product would resort to such a marketing ploy, one with no basis of truth.

 

Another marketing ploy often used is that a minimum of 6 seconds of continuous spray is required in order for the spray to be effective. How can anyone make that assertion, when many factors dictate whether or not pepper spray will be effective?

 

Wind direction and velocity, distance of spray vs. distance of bear at the time of spray, volume of spray per second, concentration of pepper in the spray, and area covered by the spray are all important factors as to whether or not a particular brand of bear pepper spray will be effective.

 

Unlike other brands that spray a slower forming narrow fog of bear pepper spray, UDAP Pepper Power Bear Spray deploys a high volume powerful blast of highly concentrated pepper spray in a dense fog – covering a broader area in a much shorter period of time.

 

If an angry grizzly charged at you, which type of pepper spray would you want?  One that emits a thick high volume fog of pepper spray in a powerful blast, or one that advertises it has over 6 seconds of spray time?

Now answer this question: “How much bear pepper spray would you want to put between you and an attacking grizzly; how quickly would you want to put it there?”

 

Get the facts…don’t believe the hype!

Most Common Situation With Bears

 

Bear attacks happen as fast as lightning!!! Most situations where you will need to use bear pepper spray will be in a close surprise encounter. When people are injured by bears in most cases it is due to the fact that the person and the bear were unaware of each others close proximity. In a surprise encounter as this, a person usually has less than 2 seconds to react. UDAP Pepper Power's belief is to get as much bear pepper spray as possible between you and the bear in that 2 seconds.
