UDAP Pepper Power Magnum Bear Spray Self Defense Deterrent with Holster for Camping, Hiking, Fishing, Powerful Blast Pattern, 30 ft Fog Barrier, 12HP, 7.9 oz

Haven't needed to use it and hopefully I want need to but its nice to have on hikes.

Glad I found this brand. Bought these when my old ones reached their "use by" date. These are better quality and they include lots of literature and clear instructions. I've carried bear spray for many years and never before understood that you can and should test each unit!! Thank you UDAP!!

Luckily, I haven’t had to use it, but as they say better to have it and not need.

Carry 2 cans. TWO. We have deployed about 25 cans of "BEAR SPRAY" in the the wild. This brand is what we carry daily. For the novice, this is a last resort. EACH brand is not the same and EACH can COULD PROVE different. This can tends to give a defined marking stream straight ahead and much of the sauce will be delivered at a face sized target straight ahead. That marking stream is stunning and then paralyzing. After being stunned, any mammal will recover and flee. A nuisance BEAR or other mammal will become familiar with this spray and will adjust habits after a single encounter. ANY BEAR or BIG CAT is going to trigger into fight or flight after they have had this deployed once. Foraging animals in area start to work around it. FOREST VS OPEN RANGE... WIND on the open range makes even the best can difficult. In the forest with no wind is very different. Under Tree Canopy this can be used as a FOGGER by spraying a quick burst while moving the can across the target area and retreating. Much will drop to ground like rain. If you are standing in this pepper rain it will cloud vision. The FOG will fill an area and make that area clear of all animals. So foraging bear will smell it and leave. That may not trigger Flight, more wandering off stunned. Once they associate you with that pepper any predator will flee upon sight. A predator that does not flee upon sight should be reported to Rangers. Most states keep a log of familiar predators that could end up on cull list. Once deployed an area can become difficult to remain in. Where to carry?... anywhere N or West of Iowa such as N Minnesota to clear a camp of a bear. Generally Bears flee until you get into the more aggressive bears out west. Big cats from Dakota Parks west. Anywhere there are canyons prepare for Big Cats. This WILL stop a curious Big Cat. A big stick can work also. Once they get hit w spray, they won't mess with humans again which will help protect them from you.

Quality

Very powerful. Easily sprays 20'-25'. Be careful!

I bought this two pack for a family trip to Glacier National in August 2023. The item comes with holsters so you can keep it handy on the belt. Thankfully, we did not meet any bears in our hiking travels, but while hiking some of the more remote trails, it was a bit unnerving, particularly when we would see fresh bear scat on the trails. All the NPS warning signs said that having bear spray is a must. A Ranger I talked to said spray is more effective than guns, because sometimes a gun will just enrage a grizzly. The item instructions say to give it a brief spray to make sure it was not a dud, and both in our set worked fine. A++++ item and seller.

I haven’t had any bear encounters but have sprayed the product wearing goggles and still felt a slight burning sensation around my eyes which tells me this spray is very potent and should be very effective if needed.

使用期限は４年くらいあり、安心できます。 ホルスターは硬めなので、さっと抜ける感じではないかもしれません。想定内なので工夫して使うかは、別のものを検討しています。 他の製品のの比較動画みても、そんなに違いを感じなかったので、お守りとして持って行きたいと思います。

使わずに済むことを祈ります。 試し打ちもできないでいます。 飛行機には載せられないので 宅急便で送るしかありません。 東北への出張に重宝しています。

すごい圧力ででます。しっかりともって構えないとあさっての方へ噴射してしまいます。 圧力でピストルのように反動で上へあがるので、気持ち下げて狙うのだと思います。

Bear spray was a gift for my daughter and her husband. I arrived as advertised, and on time. This size can and the superior level of performance is expensive in Japan,(manufactured in Montana, USA). The spray also has use as a self defense tool, should anyone try to break into their apartment. BTW, I have the same product here in the US. I take it with me when hiking where I might encounter somewhat dangerous animals.

山奥の渓流や山上湖に釣りに行くので購入しました。 EPA認証でアメリカ森林警備隊採用品とされ某動画サイトなどで定評のあるUDAPの製品なので選びました。 使用期限は2030年12月で5年弱の猶予がありました。 付属のホルスターは非常に優秀でしっかり固定でき手前に引っ張るだけで素早くはずせて緊急時に対処しやすいですね。 上に引き抜くと勘違いされている方が多いようですね。 ホルスター単体で購入すると2000円程度するのでお得です。 価格が手ごろで定評のある熊撃退スプレーです。
