POM Pepper Spray Pocket Clip, Quick Flip Top Safety, Maximum Strength OC Formula with UV Marking Dye, Safe Compact and Tactical Design for Everyday Carry, 25 Bursts, 10 ft Range, 0.5 fl oz

I've never owned pepper spray before, but after coming across a video review on the NRA website and watching the YouTube demonstration, I was sold on this product. What initially caught my attention was that POM Industries has been around for over 45 years and that their pepper spray is made in the United States. However, what really convinced me to purchase it was the compact size and the flip-top firing system. The small size means I can keep it in my pocket at all times without even noticing it's there, and the flip-top design gives me peace of mind that I won’t accidentally trigger it when I’m reaching into my pocket. I bought the three-pack because the price was great, and I figured it couldn’t hurt to have a few extras around. According to the product description, it has the maximum strength allowed by law, a 10-12 foot stream range, and can deliver 12 seconds of continuous spray or up to 20 bursts in shorter intervals. I haven’t had the need to use it yet, but I plan to take one of the canisters to an open field to test it out, just so I’m familiar with how it works. The pocket clip version is especially useful since I can clip it to the inside of my shirt pocket for easy and quick access. After doing some research on other pepper sprays, I’m confident I made the right choice with POM. Their 45 years of experience and the fact that it's made in the U.S. were major factors for me. I’ll likely buy a few more to give as holiday stocking stuffers this year because I think this is a must-have for anyone concerned about personal safety. If you're looking for something compact, reliable, and easy to carry, I highly recommend this product. I hope you found this information helpful!

These are just the right size for pockets, backpacks, attached to a dog leash, for a purse…well, just about anywhere. It clips to your pants and is hardly noticeable. I barely felt it on my morning walk. I bought these three pack so I would have one always in a coat jacket and one to take when I travel and one for spare. I like that that these are flip up and spray style as this seems easier to me than some of the other brands. Lots of cool colors too! Just hope I never have to use, but nice to feel a bit safer on my walk.

Prefacing my review with I have actually used the pepper spray. I've been fortunate enough that I havent found myself in a situation where I've had to use it. The unit itself is built well. The clip hasnt snapped off after months of carry it. I like that there is a safety cover of the button itself. Hopefully I dont find myself in a situation where I need to actually use the spray itself but so far its been nice to have and carry around.

This is a great compact OC spray with decent output, distance and duration. The flip top is better than other products that use a rotating top. Once you slip your thumb under the safety cap, you can easily press down on the button and deploy, unlike some products that are so hard to push that it takes two hands. My elderly mother with arthritis has no problems spraying this. It is also impossible to spray the unit if you were to hold it the wrong direction. There is also a little notch or lip on the front just under the nozzle so it keeps your fingers out of the line of spray. Now for the potency, this is one of the hottest pepper sprays on the market. In this day and age with assaults, road rage and aggressive transients, everyone should be carrying OC spray. I order the multipack and hand them out as gifts. Highly recommend.

fortunately i have not had a chance to use this yet, i just got it a couple days ago. this option is so much better than anything else for self-defense; i live in nh. in nh, it is illegal to use a deadly weapon unless it is to avoid a deadly force from a 3rd party. yes, that means that if someone breaks into your house and you catch them disconnecting your wide screen tv, that does not give you the right to shoot them with a gun. even if you tell them to put it down and they tell you to kiss their butt, you do not have a right to assault them with a deadly weapon. before i bought this i had bought an 18" solid and heavy baseball bat. fortunately before i did anything with it i looked on chat gtp to see if it was legal for me to walk down the street in a nearby city at 1 AM with it tucked under my waistband on my pants. no, it is not okay to do that. according to what i read, if a police car went by and thought u looked suspicious because the tip of it kept making a bump in your pant let, they could stop their car, ask you what you were carrying in your pants, and arrest you for carrying a lethal weapon with the intent to use it. the bat is being returned to amazon. this product is what you should be carrying.

Works as designed. I just wish the taste could be better.

I always test each can before I carry it. I’ve never had one malfunction or fail to spray effectively. I trust POM to help me with my personal safety. When I have sprayed a burst from the can in the sink, the fumes have made me cough and tear up, so it’s definitely spicy stuff!

I have not tested yet, but great small size and the design of the cap makes it safer to carry with no worries about it accidentally going off in your pocket
