[QUOTE="Michael Brown, post: 855275, member: 18"] To get an estimate on the heat of a particular product, simply multiply the Scoville Heat Units of your product by the concentration percentage. i.e. 2 million SHU x .10 = total capsacinoids = how hot the product is. Fox falls in the top ten hottest formulas but there are several that are significantly hotter. That said, there is a point of diminishing returns on heat when you are spraying a single individual as opposed to a crowd or relying on indirect contact such as a pepperball gun. If you are only concerned about contact distance use on an individual, then anything with 1 million SHU and a 5% concentration will be fine with correct use. That said, if you're buying and you don't have a significant restriction on time or budget, buy the hottest product available. If you simply have to have something today and need to purchase locally, simply follow the above guidelines. Michael Brown [/QUOTE]
