Most alarm systems are designed to alert the home or business owner about unwanted intruders and to alert the intruders that their presence has been detected. As alarm systems have developed over the years, they have become more efficient and have benefited from advancing technology, but the principles are generally the same, to create awareness of the presence of intruders.
Unfortunately, because the basic principles of most home and business alarms are the same, intruders have become bolder and often are not dissuaded by this type of system. Intruders understand that even if the police have been notified, they still have time to steal or make off with valuables and not get caught. This means that the power traditional alarm systems have in turning away intruders has lessened over the years.
That promises to change with the introduction of a new system that not only alerts the police and those living or working about the presence of intruders, but also to react is a positive manner to drive them from the premises. The Pepper Alarm System represents a new approach that confronts intruders with an unexpected blast of pepper spray that forces them from the scene.
What is the Pepper Alarm?
This is a device which operates like a typical alarm system in that it will detect intruders and provide a warning that their presence is known. However, it will also unleash a blast of pepper spray designed to halt the intruders so that they cannot continue with their unwanted activities. Unless the intruders have the foresight to bring specific protection, the blast of pepper spray will drive them away from the home or business.
It should be noted that the Pepper Alarm does not come with the pepper spray itself, the purchaser will need to choose the spray system that best suits their needs. This means that that several different brands, models, and types of pepper sprays can work with the Pepper Alarm system which makes it more efficient to use depending on the size and area of coverage that is needed.
Features
The Pepper Alarm system is easy to set up and it is recommended that you have it professionally installed for maximum effectiveness. This means that the unit itself needs to be in a location where the protection provided by the pepper spray can be most effective. Once activated, the pepper spray will be unleashed in the area which will irritate the eyes and cause any intruder to stop.
You can designate up to three key holders which means to activate or deactivate the alarm, three people can do so thanks to the remote access that is granted. It is possible to expand access by adding additional key holders or “fobs” so you can have additional people access the alarm system.
Benefits
There are several advantages in using the Pepper Alarm system for your home or business. This is especially true for those who have tried other means without positive results.
Effective: When used with a good pepper spray device, this is a most effective device with stopping intruders. For many, it catches them by surprise when they break into a home or business and just that alone causes many to leave immediately. Plus, the effect of the pepper spray itself, even if it does not strike them directly, it causes them to leave regardless. This means that you have more than just an alert, but a positive response to an intrusion.
Legal: Pepper spray is one of the few substances that is not only effective, but legal in almost all areas of the US without the need for a permit or special exemption. This means that you can set this up in your home or business without the need to go to local authorities in most locations. You can set it up with confidence in protecting your interests without having to worry about causing permanent damage to intruders, yet causing them to flee your property.
Dispersal: Since you can choose the exact brand of pepper spray, this means that you can select a type that is easy to clean and recover after its use. This means that if the device is used, the clean-up afterwards is minimal which means that you can get back to normal quickly if a break-in has taken place.
Quick Installation: Although professional installation is recommended if you are setting up a security system for your business. If you are protecting one room or the entrance to your home, it takes about 15 minutes to properly install the device. Anyone can perform the installation as the instructions are easy to follow.
Expand Current Alarm System: If you already have an alarm system that is compatible, you can add the Pepper Alarm to it for additional protection. In this case, professional installation is recommended since it is being attached to another system.
It should be noted that pepper spray is generally not harmful to pets apart from the temporary reaction, although birds may be adversely affected
