Top 3 Keychain Pepper Sprays

pepper spray keychain

Keeping your pepper spray in a place where it is easily accessible is one of the most important things to remember to ensure your self defense spray is effective. By carrying a pepper spray keychain, you will have quick access if you are holding your keys when walking to your car at night.

Most pepper spray keychain products are small and discrete, while still providing an impressive amount of spray.

People almost always have their keys with them, so by placing your pepper spray on your key ring, you will not forget it at home.

Pepper spray will not help you if you leave it sitting in a desk drawer or on the kitchen table. Always remember to check the expiration date on your pepper spray to make sure you have an effective product if trouble should approach you.

Mace Brand Pepper Spray Key Guard Key Chain (Black)

This keychain pepper spray is great for keeping on your keys. Made by Mace Security, you know the product will stand its ground when the time comes.

Unfortunately, the capacity is quite small, providing about six short bursts. The range is really only effective to about five feet, which is kind of close for some individuals.

There have been some reports of the cap not staying on when kept in a pocket with other items, so be cautious if you go with this model.

All in all, if you are in the market for the smallest pepper spray this product is right for you. The spray nozzle does rotate, so you will need to make sure the nozzle is facing outwards before pressing the trigger.

Features

Color: Black or Pink

Number of Shots: 6 bursts

Spray Pattern: Cone

Range: 5 feet

Expiration: 4 year shelf life

Additional Features: Possibly the smallest pepper spray canister available makes this very easy to conceal and the discrete design does not look like a traditional can of pepper spray.

Final Thoughts

We highly recommend purchasing two or three of these pepper spray products to allow yourself some training and field testing for how the spray works.

Make sure you are comfortable with how to hold the pepper spray and how to disengage the safety features on the canister. Also, you should always know the range and spray pattern to avoid cross exposure due to wind or indoor discharge situations.

Set up a target outside that is downwind to practice your grip and aim. Just like anything else you learn, practice makes perfect, and in this situation, less than perfect could mean serious injury or death.
