Mace is good for blinding people, but
how good is it for attracting other people to the
scene of the crime? Unless the perpetrator is a loud whiner, not very.
Let's combine 1 airhorn, (The ones that rednecks
bring to sporting events) with a normal can of mace.
Now you spray the attacker
in the face, and blare a 300
decibel
horn while you're at it.
Incidentally, mace is illegal where I'm from so lets have some grapefruit juice spray out
instead for the Canadian version.

Stick a high-powered light on it for any deaf people in the vicinity and youve got an award winning idea! |

//Incidentally, mace is illegal where I'm from//
I bet hair spray isn't, and it just as effective. |
|
| |
Your hair spray will make a 20-foot concentrated spray? You must have a pretty extreme hairstyle. |

Just don't grab your nutmeg horn by mistake. |
|
| |
I wonder if you could get a stream of liquid out of the container while also providing enough air volume/pressure to oscillate or whatever it does to make the loud sound. Might you end up with a mace fog instead of a stream? I suppose it could be two separate containers attached together and actuated simultaneously. |
|

It would be nice if you could throw it. E.g. backwards, over your head, while you run away. Then it explodes and soundblasts the ears off the attacker AND you don't have to be there to hear/breathe it at such close range. |
|
| |
+, but you would have to sound out SOS with the horn or something similar, otherwise, it's just another annoying noise in the distance, although it would definitley give the agressor a headache. |
|

This is neat. Not at all complex, but one of those "why aren't they already made like that" ideas. |
|
| |
I am liking the nutmeg horn very much. Perhaps because I am hungry for french toast. Mmmmm nutmeg. |
|
| |
rather not have lawyers chasing me for deafening some one every 8 minutes..... how annoying are car alarms? |
|
| |
This is a briliant idea, and might have an
additional benefit. I have heard (OK, I
thiink I have heard but cannot recall the
source) of Mace being used as an assault
weapon in muggings. |
|
| |
If all Mace cans had an integral horn,
muggers would avoid using them for
exactly the same reason that victims
*would* use them - namely, the attention-
getting noise. So, utterly [+]. |
|
| |
In my opinion, this is the very best idea on the Halfbakery. |
|
| |
Amazingly, no one makes this. |
|
| |
No no. This is OUR idea. We're not going to share it with ANYONE! |
