Review: Best of the best - This is serious pepper spray — not one of those weak keychain versions that make you wonder if it would actually work. It’s high powered, delivers a strong and consistent stream, and has impressive range. The spray pattern is focused rather than a wide mist, which helps with accuracy and reduces blowback risk. It’s also easy to carry without being bulky. The size is compact enough for a pocket or bag, and the design makes it simple to grip and deploy quickly. The safety mechanism feels secure but not difficult to disengage, which is important if you ever needed to use it under stress. What stands out most is the long-lasting, steady stream. It doesn’t sputter or fade quickly, and it feels reliable. This is one of those products you hope you never have to use, but it’s reassuring to have something that feels dependable and well-made. For power, portability, and confidence, this easily earns five stars.
Review: Fox Labs One Point Four Saved me from Two(!) Knife Wielding Attackers! - I live in Medellin, Colombia, in South America. A few years ago I was robbed at gunpoint by two guys on a motorbike. Back then I did not carry pepper spray but that experience changed everything. Since then I never leave home without my Fox Labs One Point Four pepper spray. Very recently, I had to use it for the first time and that’s what compelled me to write this review. This time however it was two pedestrians that were walking by foot and took me by surprise. Because if anything I would have expected a threat from two guys on a motorbike. I was taking an evening walk around the neighborhood at about 9 PM with my small Pomeranian dog when I noticed two guys ahead of me. Something felt off. The streets were virtually empty, yet they were walking only 7 or 8 feet apart, as if they didn’t know each other. Strangers don’t usually keep that close on deserted streets at night without talking. But they were walking in front of me, so all good. Or that's what I thought. I crossed the street and they also crossed the street in front of me. Then without warning they both stopped for a moment and seemed to whisper something to each other. Suddenly they turned toward me, each pulling a massive Rambo‑style fixed‑blade knife from beneath their sweaters. One of them even gave me a brazen smile, as if to say Got You. The sight of those knives sent a jolt through me, triggering an instant fight‑or‑flight response. I actually perceived the whole situation from there onwards in slow motion. They were approximately 14 feet away from me and I still had my airpods in. Still, I had my Fox Labs spray handily situated in the right pocket of my jumper and I drew and fired it without hesitation at the first guy who was slightly closer to me than the other guy. What came out of the nozzle was a misty stream of orange fog with many droplets. It did not come out as a pure stream. Which was good. It was a very foggy stream, let's call it that. It probably depends if you shake the spray before use or not. Or if you only press the discharge button for a short moment or if you keep it continuously pressed like I did. Just in my panic, I pressed the discharge button a fraction too early, while I was still lifting my arm, so my first burst hit him square in the chest where the misty stream exploded into a cloud of fine orange fog that was immediately covering his whole upper body and facial region. I saw the shock and surprise in the attacker's eyes, it was the guy who had brashly smiled at me. While I was adjusting the stream a little higher to his face, the first attacker turned around in a very rapid motion, covering his face with both hands and then he SPRINTED away. It really left an impression on me how he full-on sprinted away like Usain Bolt. Then, while I was switching my aim to the second attacker which was more to my right at about 14.5 feet distance, I realized that he also had already turned away, his face covered with both hands and he was just about to run. And that was it. Seeing them both running away I felt an exhilarating rush of victory that would last for days. I kid you not. I legitimately felt like a UFC champion that had won the fight of the year! It was that rush that gave me all the motivation I needed to write the best review on the Fox Labs One Point Four pepper spray that anybody has ever read. Looking back I loved the orange color of the pepper spray. It definitely comes off as more intimidating and it also has the real life practical benefit that it is much easier to see the stream in dark light conditions, which was just the case in my situation. The effect was immediate, both guys realized that I was not an easy victim and gave up on the spot and ran. Especially the first guy must have been hit hard by the burn. Although I did not get a direct hit to the first guy's face (which I still regret deeply), a very generous part of the mist must have hit his face and gotten into his airway. No wonder he sprinted off like a maniac. After using the spray I made the fatal mistake of walking near the edge of the path where I had fired the stream. Instantly, my eyes and face were burning like hell. Mixed in with my adrenaline rush I felt enraged that I was having all this pain. This was the stream version after all. I didn't expect that much fog to linger around and to be so strong. Luckily, at home I had various Sudecon decontamination wipes (also by Fox Labs) stashed away which I used on my face. It still took 30 minutes for the pain to go entirely away. Without them it would have burned much longer. Next time though, I might just go straight for dishwashing soap on my face, the nuclear option for cutting capsaicin oil. Forget about milk. In any case, I really don’t want to know what a hit anywhere near the facial region feels like. That’s an instant knockout! I actually measured the weight of the 2 ounce can after use and compared the weight to another unused can. It turned out that I had only used up 10grams which surprised me. The entire bottle has 56ml (2 ounces). I was spraying for around 2 seconds on full blast. I barely used up 20% of the entire 2oz. bottle. So, 2 ounces of that spray are a very decent amount. It's very unlikely you will ever be facing a situation where a fully loaded 2oz. can won't be sufficient to deal with the threat. Make sure to have your pepper spray very easily reachable. It's like a gun. It's first time to spray. Just like you should practice your first time draw with your gun, you should also practice your pepper spray draw. Which in fact I had been doing beforehand. You cannot be pulling out a pepper spray out of a bag or somehow fumble it. Once you'll need a pepper spray, you'll need it in that exact moment. Pepper spray is a wonderful self defense tool. It immediately forces your opponent to turn away and thus run away. That would not have happened that quickly if I had pulled a knife or a baton. Even if I had pulled out a knife these guys definitely had larger knives. And there were two of them. In fact, I was even carrying a knife on me in my right pants pocket at that time: a particularly large folding pocket knife even, the CRKT M21-14SFG Knife with a blade length of 3.99 inches! A high quality product with dual hilt and double security feature. But it never would have crossed my mind to draw that knife when I had the pepper spray on me. If I had pulled the knife, they probably would have backed off. I’d even put the odds at around 95%, since most robbers are looking for easy victims and once the knives are out, fear cuts both ways. Still, that leaves a 5% chance and a tense moment I’d rather not face. Many robbers here, whether on foot or on motorbikes, actually roam the streets while being high on the infamous Colombian white powder and with people like that there’s always a chance they’ll go loco to the max. With a pepper spray there is no such gamble. I literally forced those guys to turn away and flee instantly, even sending them totally sprinting away. This is what real stopping power looks like. That's why I think that knives or batons are clearly inferior as a self defense weapon. Of course, a gun would have had the same immediate effect, but as a non‑Colombian citizen I’m not allowed to carry one here. So if you are going to be carrying both a knife and a pepper spray, it’s tremendously unlikely that you will ever have to use your knife. Also, let me enlighten you a little further: In case you did not know, Fox Labs 1.4 does not only come in at 1.4% MC, meaning Major Capsaicinoids, basically referring to the percentage of pure capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin which are responsible for the hotness in a pepper spray. The 1.4% MC rating is the maximum permissible limit for police use and among the highest ratings you will ever find. But into the bargain Fox Labs One Point Four also contains TCE, which is trichloroethylene. TCE used to be an industrial degreaser, a hyper‑degreaser in fact, that’s now illegal to use outside of pepper sprays. It’s strongly carcinogenic, liver‑toxic, neurotoxic, causes birth defects and brings a host of other nasty side effects. But it also has the remarkable ability to instantly melt away the skin’s protective fat layer due to its hyper‑degreasing properties, while at the same time irritating the skin and forcing the pores wide open. And on the eyes TCE acts as a harsh solvent that strips away the tear film and protective mucous layer, making the sensitive eye tissue far more exposed to the pepper’s capsaicinoids. An incredible 96% of Fox Labs One Point Four is pure TCE! It’s like ripping the lock off and then kicking the door wide open. The main advantage of TCE is its viciously fast impact: while other sprays only deliver capsaicin, TCE first strips away the body’s natural defenses, letting the burn hit instantly and penetrate deeper. In total, TCE amplifies the perceived pain by a factor of 2.5 or even up to 3! This is why Fox Labs One Point Four comes in like hell. You might have heard that pepper spray only works on 90% of people with some people being more or less immune to it. Or that it might not work well on very drugged up people. That is certainly true of your garden variety POM, Sabre Red or even Fox Labs Mean Green water-based pepper spray. However, TCE containing pepper sprays have immediate stopping power on 100% of people! Thanks to the TCE you are crossing over to the “dark side”. The original Fox Labs 5.3 only had a 0.7% MC rating but it had the TCE. Then between 2016 - 2020 TCE was declared illegal to use in pepper sprays. So Fox Labs put out the Fox Labs 5.3 Squared which came in at 1.4% MC but without the TCE. People like pepper spray instructors and police were saying that the original Fox Labs 5.3 with only 0.7% MC was stronger than the Fox Labs 5.3 Squared which had double the amount of pepper extract but no TCE. Then 4 years ago it was resolved that TCE would be legal to use again in pepper sprays. Fox Labs immediately withdrew the Fox Labs 5.3 Squared without the TCE from the market and introduced Fox Labs One Point Four that has 1.4% MC and TCE. Fox Labs is currently the only brand in the world that uses TCE in their pepper spray. There used to be another brand (Heatwave) that used it as well, but they dropped it in 2016. The only other contender is DPS Black Label which uses PCE, a close chemical cousin with very similar effects. PCE is powerful but TCE hits harder and faster, which is why DPS Black Label sits firmly at #2. Between them, these are the only two toxically supercharged pepper sprays on the market that will drop absolutely anyone, no exceptions. Placed #3 in pepper spray rankings we then have the UDAP Mugger Fogger which comes in at 3.0% MC, the strongest percentage MC spray in the world and indeed the only spray in the world with such a high MC percentage. However, the UDAP Mugger Fogger does not contain any supercharging TCE or PCE and therefore still "only" lands on #3. And then placed #4 you have a whole bunch of waterbased 1.4% sprays like POM spray etc. that you could still consider decent but compared to a Fox Labs One Point Four they are quite weak actually. Fox Labs never really advertises the TCE solvent, they’ll just say it’s oil based. They definitely want to make the strongest pepper spray on the market, but the last thing they want is a Karen popping up asking, “Um, excuse me, but isn’t this, like, toxic?” That’s why you’ll never see Fox Labs mentioning TCE anywhere except on the company’s material safety data sheet, which is easy to find with a quick Google search. That's why I want to advertise this fact to you. I love the fact that Fox Labs is using TCE in their pepper sprays. This really supercharges the spray into a whole different beast. You will also find videos on youtube where the Fox Labs One Point Four pepper spray melts styrofoam. Look them up. The TCE solvent is responsible for that. No other pepper spray melts styrofoam. Honestly, who wouldn’t want to carry the one pepper spray out there that can melt styrofoam? Also if you google "Fox Labs Compare Formulas" you will see on Fox Lab's own website that they consider the Fox Labs Five Point Three spray with 0.7% MC to be hotter than the Mean Green Formula which has 1.2% MC. The Mean Green formula has a higher MC percentage but it is water-based, whereas the the 5.3 formula is oil based containing TCE. And of course the 1.4 formula is the hottest of them all with 1.4% MC and TCE. Concluding my TCE discourse I will say: TCE in a pepper spray is what will make you join the "Big Boys' Club". If you are serious about self defense and not only dabbling around, your pepper spray MUST contain TCE so that you easily have the capacity to mow down even the most drug crazed people and the few tough guys on whom regular pepper spray only has a weak effect. Plus, if you can (legally allowed) inflict up to three times the amount of pain and suffering on someone who tries to rob, rape or kill you, I will take that with a feeling of great delight and a big smile on my face. [ February 2026 UPDATE: However sadly, the US Environmental Protection Agency has finally dropped the hammer on TCE. According to the "FACT SHEET 2024 Final Risk Management Rule for Trichloroethylene under TSCA" TCE in pepper sprays is illegal since Sep. 15th 2025. So any Fox Labs One Point Four that you buy now, does not contain any supercharging TCE anymore. This is the final rule because this time they are phasing out TCE as substance, all production and import etc. Regarding PCE the situation is still open. According to the "FACT SHEET 2024 Final Risk Management Rule for Perchloroethylene under TSCA" there would be a final prohibition on retailers by March 8 2027. As previously mentioned, DPS Black Label is the brand that uses PCE in their pepper spray. There was a November 2025 update though, where the EPA acknowledged legal challenges and that the PCE ban might not even go through. There will be an EPA update coming in summer 2026 and a final ruling at the beginning of 2027 in regards to PCE in pepper sprays. But in regards to right now, DPS Black Label still is available as a full PCE pepper spray. Bottomline: Fox Labs used to be the strongest of the pack but with the final TCE ban completely implemented, right now DPS Black Label and the UDAP Mugger Fogger have the edge. Make of it what you will. If you buy Fox Labs One Point Four now you don’t get the old, borderline unhinged TCE formula that earned Fox Labs its “world's nastiest” reputation. But what you do get is a very legitimate 1.4% OC spray, built by a company with far stricter quality control and a much longer track record than most other brands. Fox Labs still continues to use the name One Point Four even after removing TCE from the formula. To spot the original TCE version, look for the California Proposition 65 Warning printed on the back. Additionally, the serial number is your best clue. The strong TCE formula ends in FTS for stream version or FTM for the spray fogger. The weaker non-TCE version always ends in DB, like FTSDB or FTMDB. Should PCE be confirmed to remain legal for pepper sprays in EPA’s upcoming 2027 final ruling, then Fox Labs might actually switch to using PCE as well. So things could change down the line but that is the most up-to-date take. ] And why am I saying all this? Attitude is first in self defense. If you really want to act with confidence you have to trust that your pepper spray is really, really nasty and will make your opponent turn away IMMEDIATELY. If you doubt that, then you might not act with sufficient confidence when the situation will really require it. That's why I did the research for you. This is the one nasty spray that you can fully trust. I myself have now even switched to carrying two Fox Labs 2oz. canisters in the spray version when I am wearing a jumper with two pockets or one large center pocket. But don't get me wrong: One of those 2 oz. canisters is very plenty as demonstrated by my own experience. If I don't carry a jumper or jacket I only carry one canister in my right pants pocket. That means that I carry my cellphone in my left pants pocket which is more unpractical in daily use. But you are paying the price of a little bit of discomfort to be able to draw your pepper spray immediately and with full confidence once the situation requires it. With cargo style pants it's also easy to fit in. But the jumper or jacket draw is even quicker and more inconspicuous if you happen to be wearing one of those. I know that there are people who carry it in a holster around their belt but I would argue it's a slower and more conspicuous draw. In Conclusion: I want to say that this stream can come out nearly like a fogger stream when you keep the button continuously pressed. You will get a concentrated stream of very fine mist with lots of tiny droplets. It will easily have up 7 feet more reach compared to the cone version. In my situation the cone version would not have had sufficient reach when the situation first unfolded. Of course, the stream vs cone spray debate has been going on for as long as pepper sprays have been around. The truth is, depending on the situation, either a stream or cone fogger may be better suited. However, in my humble estimation the stream version will be more useful in around 62,5% of all possible self defense scenarios and the cone version only in around 37,5% of them. For a fogger in windy situations you really have big problems and you could even get a large portion of the content on yourself. You don't want to worry about that in a high stress situation. The only advantage I could see in a cone fogger is if you had multiple assailants that were very close to you, like within 3-4 feet of distance. Or maybe you are a woman with particularly large fingernails and exceptionally bad aim. Yeah, then get the cone fogger. However for the vast majority of people the wind resistance and the further reach are the overall winning arguments in favor of the stream version. The reach is quite crucial. Once you begin fearing for your life you really want to have the attacker as far away from you as possible. Enough said, Fox Labs 1.4 in the stream version saved me from two knife wielding attackers. I am buying more. And I recommend you do, too!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fox Labs One Point Four Saved me from Two(!) Knife Wielding Attackers!

Many robbers here, whether on foot or on motorbikes, actually roam the streets while being high on the infamous Colombian white powder and with people like that there’s always a chance they’ll go loco to the max. With a pepper spray there is no such gamble. I literally forced those guys to turn away and flee instantly, even sending them totally sprinting away. This is what real stopping power looks like. That's why I think that knives or batons are clearly inferior as a self defense weapon. Of course, a gun would have had the same immediate effect, but as a non‑Colombian citizen I’m not allowed to carry one here. So if you are going to be carrying both a knife and a pepper spray, it’s tremendously unlikely that you will ever have to use your knife. Also, let me enlighten you a little further: In case you did not know, Fox Labs 1.4 does not only come in at 1.4% MC, meaning Major Capsaicinoids, basically referring to the percentage of pure capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin which are responsible for the hotness in a pepper spray. The 1.4% MC rating is the maximum permissible limit for police use and among the highest ratings you will ever find. But into the bargain Fox Labs One Point Four also contains TCE, which is trichloroethylene. TCE used to be an industrial degreaser, a hyper‑degreaser in fact, that’s now illegal to use outside of pepper sprays. It’s strongly carcinogenic, liver‑toxic, neurotoxic, causes birth defects and brings a host of other nasty side effects. But it also has the remarkable ability to instantly melt away the skin’s protective fat layer due to its hyper‑degreasing properties, while at the same time irritating the skin and forcing the pores wide open. And on the eyes TCE acts as a harsh solvent that strips away the tear film and protective mucous layer, making the sensitive eye tissue far more exposed to the pepper’s capsaicinoids. An incredible 96% of Fox Labs One Point Four is pure TCE! It’s like ripping the lock off and then kicking the door wide open. The main advantage of TCE is its viciously fast impact: while other sprays only deliver capsaicin, TCE first strips away the body’s natural defenses, letting the burn hit instantly and penetrate deeper. In total, TCE amplifies the perceived pain by a factor of 2.5 or even up to 3! This is why Fox Labs One Point Four comes in like hell. You might have heard that pepper spray only works on 90% of people with some people being more or less immune to it. Or that it might not work well on very drugged up people. That is certainly true of your garden variety POM, Sabre Red or even Fox Labs Mean Green water-based pepper spray. However, TCE containing pepper sprays have immediate stopping power on 100% of people! Thanks to the TCE you are crossing over to the “dark side”. The original Fox Labs 5.3 only had a 0.7% MC rating but it had the TCE. Then between 2016 - 2020 TCE was declared illegal to use in pepper sprays. So Fox Labs put out the Fox Labs 5.3 Squared which came in at 1.4% MC but without the TCE. People like pepper spray instructors and police were saying that the original Fox Labs 5.3 with only 0.7% MC was stronger than the Fox Labs 5.3 Squared which had double the amount of pepper extract but no TCE. Then 4 years ago it was resolved that TCE would be legal to use again in pepper sprays. Fox Labs immediately withdrew the Fox Labs 5.3 Squared without the TCE from the market and introduced Fox Labs One Point Four that has 1.4% MC and TCE. Fox Labs is currently the only brand in the world that uses TCE in their pepper spray. There used to be another brand (Heatwave) that used it as well, but they dropped it in 2016. The only other contender is DPS Black Label which uses PCE, a close chemical cousin with very similar effects. PCE is powerful but TCE hits harder and faster, which is why DPS Black Label sits firmly at #2. Between them, these are the only two toxically supercharged pepper sprays on the market that will drop absolutely anyone, no exceptions. Placed #3 in pepper spray rankings we then have the UDAP Mugger Fogger which comes in at 3.0% MC, the strongest percentage MC spray in the world and indeed the only spray in the world with such a high MC percentage. However, the UDAP Mugger Fogger does not contain any supercharging TCE or PCE and therefore still "only" lands on #3. And then placed #4 you have a whole bunch of waterbased 1.4% sprays like POM spray etc. that you could still consider decent but compared to a Fox Labs One Point Four they are quite weak actually. Fox Labs never really advertises the TCE solvent, they’ll just say it’s oil based. They definitely want to make the strongest pepper spray on the market, but the last thing they want is a Karen popping up asking, “Um, excuse me, but isn’t this, like, toxic?” That’s why you’ll never see Fox Labs mentioning TCE anywhere except on the company’s material safety data sheet, which is easy to find with a quick Google search. That's why I want to advertise this fact to you. I love the fact that Fox Labs is using TCE in their pepper sprays. This really supercharges the spray into a whole different beast. You will also find videos on youtube where the Fox Labs One Point Four pepper spray melts styrofoam. Look them up. The TCE solvent is responsible for that. No other pepper spray melts styrofoam. Honestly, who wouldn’t want to carry the one pepper spray out there that can melt styrofoam? Also if you google "Fox Labs Compare Formulas" you will see on Fox Lab's own website that they consider the Fox Labs Five Point Three spray with 0.7% MC to be hotter than the Mean Green Formula which has 1.2% MC. The Mean Green formula has a higher MC percentage but it is water-based, whereas the the 5.3 formula is oil based containing TCE. And of course the 1.4 formula is the hottest of them all with 1.4% MC and TCE. Concluding my TCE discourse I will say: TCE in a pepper spray is what will make you join the "Big Boys' Club". If you are serious about self defense and not only dabbling around, your pepper spray MUST contain TCE so that you easily have the capacity to mow down even the most drug crazed people and the few tough guys on whom regular pepper spray only has a weak effect. Plus, if you can (legally allowed) inflict up to three times the amount of pain and suffering on someone who tries to rob, rape or kill you, I will take that with a feeling of great delight and a big smile on my face. [ February 2026 UPDATE: However sadly, the US Environmental Protection Agency has finally dropped the hammer on TCE. According to the "FACT SHEET 2024 Final Risk Management Rule for Trichloroethylene under TSCA" TCE in pepper sprays is illegal since Sep. 15th 2025. So any Fox Labs One Point Four that you buy now, does not contain any supercharging TCE anymore. This is the final rule because this time they are phasing out TCE as substance, all production and import etc. Regarding PCE the situation is still open. According to the "FACT SHEET 2024 Final Risk Management Rule for Perchloroethylene under TSCA" there would be a final prohibition on retailers by March 8 2027. As previously mentioned, DPS Black Label is the brand that uses PCE in their pepper spray. There was a November 2025 update though, where the EPA acknowledged legal challenges and that the PCE ban might not even go through. There will be an EPA update coming in summer 2026 and a final ruling at the beginning of 2027 in regards to PCE in pepper sprays. But in regards to right now, DPS Black Label still is available as a full PCE pepper spray. Bottomline: Fox Labs used to be the strongest of the pack but with the final TCE ban completely implemented, right now DPS Black Label and the UDAP Mugger Fogger have the edge. Make of it what you will. If you buy Fox Labs One Point Four now you don’t get the old, borderline unhinged TCE formula that earned Fox Labs its “world's nastiest” reputation. But what you do get is a very legitimate 1.4% OC spray, built by a company with far stricter quality control and a much longer track record than most other brands. Fox Labs still continues to use the name One Point Four even after removing TCE from the formula. To spot the original TCE version, look for the California Proposition 65 Warning printed on the back. Additionally, the serial number is your best clue. The strong TCE formula ends in FTS for stream version or FTM for the spray fogger. The weaker non-TCE version always ends in DB, like FTSDB or FTMDB. Should PCE be confirmed to remain legal for pepper sprays in EPA’s upcoming 2027 final ruling, then Fox Labs might actually switch to using PCE as well. So things could change down the line but that is the most up-to-date take. ] And why am I saying all this? Attitude is first in self defense. If you really want to act with confidence you have to trust that your pepper spray is really, really nasty and will make your opponent turn away IMMEDIATELY. If you doubt that, then you might not act with sufficient confidence when the situation will really require it. That's why I did the research for you. This is the one nasty spray that you can fully trust. I myself have now even switched to carrying two Fox Labs 2oz. canisters in the spray version when I am wearing a jumper with two pockets or one large center pocket. But don't get me wrong: One of those 2 oz. canisters is very plenty as demonstrated by my own experience. If I don't carry a jumper or jacket I only carry one canister in my right pants pocket. That means that I carry my cellphone in my left pants pocket which is more unpractical in daily use. But you are paying the price of a little bit of discomfort to be able to draw your pepper spray immediately and with full confidence once the situation requires it. With cargo style pants it's also easy to fit in. But the jumper or jacket draw is even quicker and more inconspicuous if you happen to be wearing one of those. I know that there are people who carry it in a holster around their belt but I would argue it's a slower and more conspicuous draw. In Conclusion: I want to say that this stream can come out nearly like a fogger stream when you keep the button continuously pressed. You will get a concentrated stream of very fine mist with lots of tiny droplets. It will easily have up 7 feet more reach compared to the cone version. In my situation the cone version would not have had sufficient reach when the situation first unfolded. Of course, the stream vs cone spray debate has been going on for as long as pepper sprays have been around. The truth is, depending on the situation, either a stream or cone fogger may be better suited. However, in my humble estimation the stream version will be more useful in around 62,5% of all possible self defense scenarios and the cone version only in around 37,5% of them. For a fogger in windy situations you really have big problems and you could even get a large portion of the content on yourself. You don't want to worry about that in a high stress situation. The only advantage I could see in a cone fogger is if you had multiple assailants that were very close to you, like within 3-4 feet of distance. Or maybe you are a woman with particularly large fingernails and exceptionally bad aim. Yeah, then get the cone fogger. However for the vast majority of people the wind resistance and the further reach are the overall winning arguments in favor of the stream version. The reach is quite crucial. Once you begin fearing for your life you really want to have the attacker as far away from you as possible. Enough said, Fox Labs 1.4 in the stream version saved me from two knife wielding attackers. I am buying more. And I recommend you do, too!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best on the market to me
*by M***C on December 14, 2025*

I carry this to protect myself and my dogs on walks, I have used it twice on loose dogs in my city that came up and tried to attack my dogs, the stream is powerful and has good reach, most of all with how powerful this spray is the dog attacking was left incapacitated after one spray to the face. I am sure it would be as effective for personal defense. A bit expensive but worth your safety.
