Personal Safety Gadgets for Women

It’s kinda disturbing looking at the numbers of violence, harassment, rape and the list goes on..  That involves women in Kuwait for the past weeks, there is no safe place for women but to learn how to defend and be aware of the environment

That is why I have gathered relevant handy safety gadgets for women, which I think, effective and very useful .....  

NO ONE wants to be the target of an assailant...and
NO ONE knows when they might be targeted.

Criminals work on the elements of surprise, speed and fear!

·                 Give criminals their own dose of surprise!

·                 Add crime-foiling time to their attempt at assault!

·                 Multiply their fear of detection and capture!

This conveniently small can emits an ear piercing shriek readily recognized as an emergency call for help. Its blast can be heard for blocks and will definitely alert everyone in the vicinity. Small enough to fit conveniently in purse or pocket - readily at hand for emergency use

Hopefully, you'll never be assaulted. With the Mace Screecher Aerosol Alarm, you'll be ready to alert help that it is needed

The Lightning Strike Personal Protection System produced by Brite-Strike is a simple and easy to use personal safety and protection system, developed by police officers for police officers.
Based on the usage of state-of-the-art LEDs, with electronic management, the 65 lumens of brilliant white light utilized by this tactical light will momentarily blind and disorient an attacker. This protection system also includes a 10db personal alarm, loud enough to scare off the attacker and alert others. To enable it, you have to pull the lanyard from the box and the pin activates the alarm. When the need for alarm is over, you can push the pin back in the box and the noise stops. It's small and rugged and it has a tough polymer coiled lanyard for attachment to a key ring or purse, making it easy to carry around with you.

The unique “Tactical Touch” end cap switch allows the user to switch from high to low blinding strobe settings, all with a light touch of a finger. The cut-away terminal end ensures easier access to the switch

Cell phone stun guns are great for women traveling alone, college students on campus after dark, or protection any time for everybody!

Remember, the purpose of this stun gun, and all other non-lethal self defense products, is to give you time to escape. Use the cellphone stun gun, then run like hell for safety.

Even the most prepared and savvy of women can fall prey to someone with bad intentions. In case of an emergency or if you are in need of personal protection a cell phone stun gun is a perfect solution.

Pepper Shot™ is a 10% pepper spray rated at 2 million scoville heat units and made with a very fine grain that is more effective than the coarser grains of most other pepper sprays.

In addition to causing an attacker pain, Pepper Shot swells the mucous membranes, which makes breathing difficult, and swells the veins in the eyes, causing the eyes to close. These effects last 20-30 minutes and cause no permanent damage. All sprays have locking actuators for extra safety.

As a woman, a mother and a friend I pray for each and every woman in Kuwait to be safe and well guarded, and I hope someday my dream of having a place called “WACK” (Women Awareness Center-Kuwait), which will facilitate and reach out to all the WOMEN

to be aware, to be trained, to be safe and to be equipped with preventive / safety measures

Here’s an effective  quote :

Please, never, ever, give yourselves cause for regret by not ensuring your Wives or Daughters (and possibly Sons), are not able to defend them. One of the saddest expressions known to man is "Too Late", don't be one of the people saying this when it is!
