How it works

Point your thumb.
Push forward.

One motion

Your thumb unlocks the safety and pushes forward in one motion, setting off the spray and the 120 dB alarm together.

Thumbprint aim

The stream goes wherever your thumb is pointing.

Only on Bestie

Bestie is the only pepper spray on the market with this deployment mechanism. It's more ergonomic and designed to give you more accurate aim under stress.

Practice first

Bestie arrives unloaded so you can learn the motion before loading a live formula.

THREE TOOLS. ONE HAND.

Bestie puts an ergonomic trigger, a safety, pepper spray, a 120 dB alarm and a striker in one device that fits your palm and your pocket.

VERSION 1 VS VERSION 2

PRACTICE BEFORE YOU LOAD

Bestie Version 2 arrives unloaded, so your first push is practice.

1. Dry fire. Begin by practicing with your unloaded Bestie. Learn how to unlock the safety with your thumb and push forward in one motion, without deploying any formula.

2. Practice Canister. Once the movement feels comfortable, you can install an inert Practice Canister, available separately, to practice aiming and deploying.

3. Live formula. Only graduate to a live formula once the unlocking and activation process feels familiar and intuitive.

Always treat Bestie as though it is loaded. Never point the nozzle toward yourself or anything you do not intend to spray.
