App-Based Safety Features
Modern smartphones connect with the Plegium Smart Pepper Spray to create a complete safety system. The free app unlocks powerful features that protect you better than regular pepper spray.

Legal and Travel Considerations
Research your state's rules about pepper spray before buying one, since laws differ from state to state.
Learn how to use safety features and handle your pepper spray correctly to stay within the law during emergencies.
If you plan to travel abroad with pepper spray, look up the laws in the country you're visiting – many countries ban these devices or make you get special permits.
Many public places like schools, government buildings, and airports don't allow pepper spray at all, so check local rules about where you can carry it.
State-Specific Ownership Regulations
You need to know your state's rules about pepper spray before buying or carrying it. Laws about pepper spray are different across the United States, so check what's allowed in your area to stay within the law.
California, Massachusetts, and New York require you to get a permit before you can buy or carry pepper spray. These states keep close track of who owns and uses pepper spray.
States like New Jersey and New York also require you to be at least 18 years old to buy pepper spray, so check your age first.
Michigan and Wisconsin limit how strong pepper spray can be by controlling the amount of oleoresin capsicum (OC) in each product. Make sure to check the OC percentage on your pepper spray to follow your state's rules.
When you travel to different states, remember that the rules change. If you're taking a flight, you can only pack pepper spray in checked bags – the TSA won't let you bring it in carry-on luggage.
For trips to other countries, look up their pepper spray laws first to avoid getting into trouble.
International Transportation Rules
International regulations for pepper spray are stricter than domestic rules and require careful attention. You need to check both your airline's rules and each country's laws before crossing borders with pepper spray.
Many countries strictly control these self-defense devices, and breaking these rules can get you in serious trouble.
Think about these key points before traveling internationally with pepper spray:
- Countries that ban pepper spray can fine or jail you for carrying it
- Customs officers may take away your pepper spray, leaving you without protection in a new place
- Airlines can stop you from boarding if you don't follow their rules about pepper spray
- You might need special papers or permits, which take time and money to get
To follow international rules, call your airline and the embassy of the country you're visiting before you leave. Rules often change, so check the latest requirements close to your travel date. Different countries have different rules – some want you to have a prescription or special permit, while others don't allow pepper spray at all.
Public Space Usage Laws
Local laws about pepper spray in public spaces matter a lot – breaking them can get you in serious trouble. Different places have different rules, so what's okay in one city might be illegal in another.
Check your local laws before carrying pepper spray anywhere in public.
Rules tell you exactly where you can and can't take pepper spray. Many places ban sprays in closed spaces like malls, government offices, and buses or trains.
Check if you need a special permit in your area. Your city might also limit the size and strength of pepper spray you can carry.
Keep up with any changes in the rules since they can shift over time. Call your local police or lawyer to learn the current laws.
Also read what the pepper spray maker says about legal use in your area. If you break these laws, you might've to pay fines, give up your pepper spray, or face worse punishments.
Emergency Response Capabilities
The Plegium Smart Pepper Spray activates three emergency features at once when you trigger it. Pressing the spray button firmly sets off a loud 130dB siren, bright LED light, and shares your location through the Plegium app using GPS.
Like stream-style pepper sprays, it lets you aim accurately up to 20 feet away. This pepper spray with its built-in alarm ensures you have backup during emergencies.
The device protects you in several ways:
- A loud siren that makes others notice where you are
- Bright LED strobe lights that confuse attackers
- Red and UV dye that marks attackers so police can find them later
- Live location tracking that your emergency contacts can see
The spray connects to your smartphone through Bluetooth, sending automatic texts and calls to people you choose. When you're in trouble, the system helps protect you while calling for help.
Your emergency contacts and first responders can find you quickly thanks to GPS tracking, while the mix of sound, light, and spray gives you time to get away and get help.
Usage and Maintenance Guidelines
The Plegium Smart Pepper Spray works best when you use and maintain it properly. Like other top pepper spray brands, it has safety features that stop it from spraying by accident while stored or carried.
To keep all features working, make sure your phone's Bluetooth stays on and the app keeps running. This keeps the alarm working and lets the spray alert your emergency contacts if needed.
Learn how to use your spray safely by only pressing the test button – don't test the actual spray, or you'll waste it. When you set up the device, put in your emergency contacts' phone numbers carefully and check all settings to make sure it can send texts and calls during an emergency.
If someone threatens you, press the spray button hard to turn on both the alarm sound and bright LED light. You can spray up to 10 feet away, but you need to aim well for it to work best.
The spray contains special red and UV dye that helps police find attackers later, but be careful not to spray yourself or others by accident.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is It Better to Carry Pepper Spray or an Alarm?
You should carry both pepper spray and an alarm for the best protection. A device that combines both tools helps keep you safer and works better in practice. The pepper spray gives you a way to defend yourself right away, while the alarm's loud noise can attract help from others nearby. Using both together gives you the most protection that's still legal to carry.
Can Pepper Spray Be Detected by a Metal Detector?
Metal detectors typically won't pick up most modern pepper sprays because they're made of plastic. Different places have their own security rules though, so you should check ahead of time – especially if your pepper spray has any metal parts or alarm features.
How to Get Rid of Pepper Spray Smell in House?
Open all windows and use fans to get fresh air flowing through your house. Mix baking soda with water to make a paste and wipe it on surfaces where the pepper spray landed. You can also spray white vinegar on these areas. Turn on air purifiers if you have them, and sprinkle baking soda or commercial odor absorbers on carpets, curtains, and furniture. These steps will help remove that nasty pepper spray smell from your home quickly.
What Is the Antidote for Pepper Spray?
First, move to fresh air immediately. Next, rinse your eyes with cool water to wash away the spray. You can use milk or antacids to help neutralize the chemical effects. Get medical help right away if you have severe reactions to the pepper spray.
