DPS
X-Stream-range™ Defense Sprays were specifically
designed and developed to fill a critical void in
the field with present OC sprays available. Thomas
J. Archambault, who has more than 35 years of
national and international OC certification training
expertise as well as three years previous employment
with a the oldest and largest manufacturer of defense
sprays in the world, developed this concept. Tom
was involved from the inception of OC with various
patterns and formulations of defense sprays. He was
also involved with training videos and related certification
training programs for law enforcement, corrections
and the U.S. Military worldwide. No one in the industry
has more knowledge or credibility on the subject of
OC related products, their usage, effectives and training.

Q:
What
is ONH
A:
ONH is “Out the Nozzle Heat”
This is an indisputable simple calculation that
most manufacturers avoid. To start the calculation,
you need an accurate SHU and % figure. Only
about 1% of the pepper sprays on the market
are actually what they say they are.
We assay every batch of pepper to insure accuracy,
and ultimately insure your safety.
To understand ONH, here is the simple math;
You take the SHU x % = ONH.
For example, if an OC spray is advertised as 2% 5,000,000
SHU, you take 5,000,000 SHU x 2% = 100,000 ONH
(Out the Nozzle Heat).
DPS is 10% 2,000,000 SHU. Now take 2,000,000
x 10% = 200,000 ONH (Out the Nozzle Heat)

What Agencies
are Saying about DPS
"I’d
like to share our experience with your product, and the
impact it had on our department. As soon as we tested the
Oleoresin Spray we received from you during the CERT Course
we hosted, we had been looking for a safer product which
was non-flammable and did not compromise our effectiveness
during potentially dangerous situations, after testing nearly
every product in the market, with less then positive results,
we are very satisfied with your product and we have decided
to make it the standard issue for our Special Response Team.
Thank you.

 Pictured
here is Brian Scott Clark and he is warden at Bedford Prison
in Bedford PA. While a few men were required to be sprayed
in order to be certified as trainers, Brian volunteered.
He had been sprayed 17 times in his career both in training
and other times to test different OC products. Brian is
the perfect candidate to receive a live exposure with DPS
to see how it fairs to all the other brands he has been
hit with in the past. Well here is Brian's testimonial:
August 22, 2006
-Testimonial-
My career
in Law Enforcement began in the United States Marine Corps
in 1991 I have served in the Capacity of CERT Commander
for two Correctional Institutions and currently serving
as Warden of the Bedford County Prison. During my Law Enforcement
Career I have received 18 Live Exposures with Oleoresin
Capsicum Sprays. I received exposures from all Major Manufactures
to include stream, cone, foam and double heat units. While
all of these sprays had some effect on me such as rapid
closing of eyes, respiratory effects and heat none of them
had the effect that I experienced with the DPS X-Stream
Range Spray.
The DPS X-Stream
Range Spray is the first live exposure where I experienced
a Sensory Overload. This extremely effective spray was fast
acting taking effect over my eyes and respiratory system
almost immediately. During my 18 live exposures I have been
sprayed with many products claiming that they have twice
the heat of most sprays however in my experience with those
sprays one was no hotter than the other, until I was sprayed
with the DPS X-Stream Range Spray. The DPS X-Stream Range
was extremely effective.
As a Warden
of a County Prison and Trained C.E.R.T. Commander I am always
searching for a product to keep my officers safer in this
unsafe and unpredictable environment. I have found that
product in the DPS X-Stream Range Spray. This product gets
the job done and still leaves no long term health or injury
to the subject. In addition, with ranges up to 17-20 feet
with this stream spray my officers can engage an attacker
at a safe distance. I will be switching to the DPS X-Stream
Range.

One of the officers made up what I guess would be a reverse-acronym
for DPS and made a sign to go with it. It helps you understand
what these guys went through and how they feel about DPS...
