A Mace Keychain is a Sensible Self Defense Weapon

A mace keychain could be the answer to your keychain security needs.

Just one of a wide range of different self defense weapons on the market, a mace keychain can be one of the most effective devices in any personal alarm system.

Nowadays when people talk about mace sprays, they are normally referring to hot pepper spray. But the original mace spray was in fact a type of tear gas, and its effects were quite different to the pepper spray we get today. To complicate the issue even further, the leading manufacturer of self defense spray is a company called Mace, and they have registered the name Mace. While the bulk of their self defense spray products contain hot pepper, Mace Security does still add tear gas to some of its products for added effect.

Mace Security has a huge range of different personal defense products including sprays formulated for human use and sprays that are suitable for use against animals. Note that these do not contain the same ingredients. They also produce law enforcement products, personal alarms and a wide range of security systems including monitors, cameras and other spy gadgets.

While Mace Security is certainly not the only company that manufactures products like the self defense mace keychain, they have been in business for so many years (more than four decades) that there is a certain peace of mind that you can expect if you opt for their products. Specific Mace products that incorporate a keychain include:

• A triple action device that was designed specifically for women’s self defense and for emergency use. It comes in the form of a compact self defense spray canister with a finger grip, and can be used to spray up to 12 feet. The active ingredients include hot pepper spray (Oleoresin Capsicum) and tear gas, and there is also an invisible UV dye that will mark your assailant, making identification easier. A similar product has also been formulated for police use.
• Lightweight batons, manufactured in a range of different colors, that incorporate a cone-shaped spray that reaches up to five feet and contains six powerful one second bursts that will fog the air.
• A remote control unit that can be used with the Mace wireless home security system. This may be used to arm and disarm the system, and it also has a panic button. Better still, the panic button can be used to alert people elsewhere that there is a problem. While this device doesn’t incorporate spray, it is a great addition to any personal alarm system.

The value of having a keychain with your self defense pepper spray is that you will be more likely to take it with you when you go out. You can use it for your vehicle keys and also for your house and office keys. That way you will be sure to take your mace keychain with you wherever you go – because remember that if you don’t keep your self defense weapons and personal security alarm devices with you, you won’t be able to use them for protection or to raise the alarm. Stun gun devices offer an other alternative to your personal security. More information on personal safety training
