In today’s world, personal safety concerns are on the rise. With increasing urbanization and the growing number of threats in public spaces, it’s crucial to have effective means of self-defense. Non-lethal defense tools offer a practical solution, providing safety without causing irreversible harm. Let’s explore how these tools can help reduce crime and improve safety for everyone.

Understanding Non-Lethal Defense

Non-lethal defense tools like AIIRO® and HERO® 2020 are designed to incapacitate or deter an attacker without causing permanent injury. These tools provide a means of self-defense that minimize the risk of severe injury or death.

Benefits of Non-Lethal Defense

• Safety and Responsibility: Using these tools allows individuals and law enforcement to protect themselves while maintaining a commitment to humane and responsible defense.
• Effective Deterrence: The immediate effects of pepper gels, projectiles, and impact devices can stop an attacker in their tracks, providing crucial time to escape and call for help.
• Ease of Use: Products like HERO® 2020 and AIIRO® are designed for straightforward operation, ensuring that even in high-stress situations, users can deploy them effectively.

Non-lethal defense tools are essential for those who want reliable protection without the risk of causing lasting harm. By leveraging advanced technologies and rigorous testing, brands like HERO® offer dependable solutions for personal safety.

Innovation at HERO®

HERO® offers a range of innovative non-lethal defense tools that stand out in the market. Let’s take a closer look at these patented, award-winning products:

HERO® 2020

HERO® 2020 is a compact, powerful multi-format projectile pistol. Users can select either chemical irritant or kinetic projectiles to fit their environment and local regulations. Irritant filled PavaBalls explode into a cloud, engulfing and quickly incapacitating the target, while hard polymer BluntForce rounds deliver a powerful, non-lethal blow to the target. Both options provide an effective and humane means of self-defense, making HERO® 2020 an effective and dependable option for self-defense. HERO® 2020 is available with a laser sight and stun light.

AIIRO®

AIIRO® is another cutting-edge product from HERO® offering superior protection in a concealable, compact design. This device combines advanced technology with user-friendly features, making it accessible for anyone to use. With the press of a button AIIRO® fires PavaGel, a debilitating pepper gel that sticks to the target. Whether you’re a seasoned professional or new to self-defense, AIIRO® provides a reliable option for keeping yourself safe. AIIRO® is available with a 120db button activated alarm to draw attention and startle attackers.

Application and Effectiveness

Whether you’re a security-conscious consumer or a law enforcement professional, these tools offer a safe and reliable means of self-defense.

For Consumers

Imagine walking home late at night when you encounter a potential threat. With your HERO® device in hand, you can quickly and effectively incapacitate the attacker for up to an hour, giving you plenty of time to get to safety and seek help. The confidence and peace of mind provided by such a tool is invaluable.

For Law Enforcement

Law enforcement agencies can rely on the quality and power of HERO® products. In situations where lethal force is not warranted, these non-lethal tools provide an effective alternative. Officers can disable threats while minimizing the risk of injury or fatality, ensuring a safer outcome for everyone involved.

The HERO® Difference

Compact and Concealable

Packing so much power into a small package wasn’t easy. It took years of research and development to build products that fit easily into a pocket or purse. HERO® 2020 and AIIRO® are among the smallest devices of their kind available, providing compact, concealable defense wherever you go.

Advanced Technology

HERO® products are built with advanced technologies beyond basic pepper spray or stun guns. Our products combine the best features in the industry with superior performance, providing a more effective means of self-defense. For instance, pepper gels and pepper projectiles offer greater range and impact, while devices like BluntForce provide powerful, non-lethal deterrents in places where irritants may not be allowed.

Nitrogen vs. CO2

One of the standout features of HERO® products is the use of nitrogen instead of CO2. Nitrogen provides more consistent performance, ensuring your defense tool works reliably when you need it most. This is a significant advantage that sets HERO® apart from other non-lethal defense options.

Form Factor

Engineered from the ground up, HERO® products have won awards for their patented, award-winning designs. Easy to hold, carry, and use, even those unfamiliar with firearms can use HERO® products with minimal training.
