OC is an effective less lethal tool for EDC. It's labeling can be misleading though. Most reputable manufacturers label the cans as 2% or 10% OC, this only applies to the amount of OC per volume in the can not the actual amount of Capsaicinoids. For instance Fox Labs is 2% OC but in all actuality it is only .66% capsaicinoids where as Body Guard LE 10 is 10% and in actuality it is 1.25% capsaicinoids.

Shoefield Heating Units can be deceiving also, they are measured by a 5 member panel and taste test.

The following listed is by strongest and considered a Class III Spray:
Pure Capsaicin 10% 16,000,000/1,600,000 10%
American Defense (ADR) 10% 2,000,000/200,000 1.25%
BodyGuard (LE-10) 10% 2,000,000/200,000 1.25%
CQB (Level III) 10% 2,000,000/200,000 1.25%
Sabre Red 10% 2,000,000/200,000 1.25%
