ARMND Self Defence Spray Criminal Identifier Spray for Personal Protection - Weapons UK Legal Pepper Spray Alternative for Men & Women with UV Marking (15ml with Keychain)

I bought this after losing my last one while out a run. Handy it can be clipped onto shorts or trousers and small enough to hide in the palm of your hand. Wouldn't go out running without it!

Have not used it yet, hoping they never will, got these as a stocking filler for our 17 & 23 year old daughters. Shocking we have to think like that. Anyway the girls loved them. Nice small neat size for a pocket or handbag.

It was a lot smaller than I was expecting - but to be fair it is a personal issue one so I suppose it has to be compact so that you can keep it discreetly on your person. The red activation button has a locked position (see photo 4) so that you dont accidently press the button and an unlocked position (see photo 3). Ours arrived in a semi-locked position - I dont know if that position is intentional or not; but it did need some pressure to get it from semi-locked (one notch between unlocked and fully locked) to the fully locked position and back again - you can just see the two "bumps" above the red button in photo 3 - they are there to ensure you cant accidently move the trigger into the unlocked position. This is one of those items that you will not know how good it is until you need to use it; and likewise if you never have to actually use it - that is a good thing. According to the description this is not pepper spray (which is illegal in the UK) it is in effect a red dye, with UV properties and a foul smell - I'm not going to try it out to test if it has those 3 elements; and its intention is to distract someone and mark their clothing not injure them. I hope I never have to use it, but if I do - I'll update my review.

Bought for granddaughter when was travelling

"Long Story Short" It comes in very tiny can that is easy to carry It is potentially a pepper spray like effect to help in dangerous situation I havent tested it but I am sure that anything that is sprayed into someones face or eyes will deter the danger. It does have statements that it works but the only way to see it is spraying it into someones face. It is good to have something like this handy but not sure of its strength and power. Value for money 10 out of 10 as a peace of mind of having it.

I originally got this, firstly for safety but also because of the keychain addition. I have another defence spray which I never know which bag it is in but the idea of a keychain to keep on the outside of my main handbag was ideal, though there's not a quick release way to get it off the keychain without unclipping the whole thing which you might not have time when needing to use it, so I think some sort of elastic reel, like on lanyards, allowing you to stretch it out and use it would be more useful personally. The spray simply marks someone red so they're easy to report and for them to be identified and can be used fairly far away which is good. The spray also can be locked off so no worries of it going off accidentally. A great idea but a quick detachment or elastic on the keychain would be better for quick use.

I should point out straight away before I go any further this is not a Gas, Pepper or Chemical Spray. When used it covers an attacker with a sticky red dye which will last for days and help identify them should they later be caught. Harmless and UK Legal this spray may not stop someone attacking you, but at least it gives you a little extra assurance when alone at night and a tricky situation might arise. Quite small you could carry it about your person or in a bag, but be aware some places like private buildings, Pubs or Clubs may forbid entry to anyone carrying a pressurised Protection Spray even if it is legal. Not much to pay for a little extra protection, and it's street legal. As always - Stay safe.

Don’t understand why this looks like it’s been used already and when you shake it doesn’t feel like there’s much in ?
