Traveling is about the excitement of new experiences, the thrill of seeing new places, and the joy of meeting new people. But with all that adventure comes a simple truth: you need to stay safe, no matter where you go. For the modern traveler, especially those heading to unfamiliar territory, a reliable form of self-defense is essential. But carrying a firearm or other lethal weapon can bring more headaches than peace of mind. That’s why non-lethal defense options, like those from HERO®, are becoming the go-to choice for savvy travelers.

The Challenge of Traveling with Firearms

If you’ve ever tried to travel with a firearm, you know it’s not exactly straightforward. Laws vary by country, state, even city, and county! Plus air travel has its own set of rules which can differ by country and airline. What’s allowed in one place might be illegal just a few miles down the road, and the penalties for getting it wrong can be severe. For frequent travelers, keeping up with these regulations can feel overwhelming.

This is where HERO® devices shine. These non-lethal defense tools are legal at the state level in all 50 states, making them a hassle-free option for those on the move. Whether you’re driving across the country, catching a red-eye flight, or simply exploring a new city, there’s a HERO® device you can carry or pack without worrying about running afoul of local laws.

Why Non-Lethal Defense Is a Smart Choice for Air Travel

Airports and airplanes are high-security environments, and for good reason. But this also means carrying a firearm or even certain types of non-lethal weapons can be a major no-no. Many travelers find themselves feeling vulnerable, especially when arriving in unfamiliar destinations.

HERO® devices are designed with travelers in mind. They’re compact and easy to take with you in your checked luggage within FAA regulations. This means you can have a reliable means of defense waiting for you when you reach your destination. And because HERO® devices are so small, they won’t take up much room in your suitcase, leaving plenty of space for everything else you need on your trip.

Compact and Concealable: The Perfect Travel Companion

When you’re on the road, you need a defense tool that’s both effective and easy to carry. HERO® devices weigh less than a pound and are about the size of a smartphone, making them incredibly portable. You can slip one into your pocket, purse, or backpack without it being obvious or getting in the way.

Portability is crucial for travelers who are constantly on the move. Whether you’re walking through a crowded street, exploring a remote trail, or navigating a new city after getting off your plane, having a HERO® device close at hand means you’re always prepared.

Easy to Use: Defense That Doesn’t Complicate Your Life

Let’s face it—traveling can be stressful. You’re juggling itineraries, managing logistics, and dealing with the unexpected. The last thing you need is a defense tool that’s complicated to use. HERO® devices are designed to be simple and straightforward, so you can focus on enjoying your trip, knowing easy to use, reliable defense is within reach.

HERO® products come with a detailed User Guide and free online video training, allowing anyone to learn how to use their device in just minutes. Simplicity and power when you need it, without any fuss. 

Patented Technology: Trust in Proven Performance

When you’re far from home, you need a defense tool you can rely on. HERO® isn’t just another new name on an old product. Our devices are engineered from the ground up with patented technology, rigorously tested for performance and reliability, and have won awards for their design and power. You can trust your HERO® to protect you, wherever you may be.

When you’re far from home, that assurance is priceless. 

The Science of Safety: Nitrogen vs. CO2

You might not think much about what powers your defense device, but it’s worth noting HERO® uses Nitrogen instead of CO2. Why does this matter? Nitrogen is more temperature stable, meaning your HERO® device will perform consistently. So whether you’re in the humidity and heat of a tropical adventure, or the freezing cold of a mountain retreat, your HERO® provides the same stopping power.

HERO®: A Reliable Companion for Every Journey

Every trip is unique, and so are the challenges you might face. That’s why having a versatile, reliable defense tool is so important. Whether you’re exploring a new city, hiking in remote areas, or just relaxing on the beach, HERO® devices are designed to provide effective protection in any environment.

City Adventures

Urban environments can be unpredictable, with busy streets, large crowds, and unfamiliar surroundings. HERO® devices are small enough to carry discreetly, so you can move through the city with confidence.

Remote Getaways

When you’re off the beaten path, help might not be close at hand. HERO® devices offer a lightweight, portable solution for staying safe, whether you’re hiking, camping, or simply enjoying some time in nature.

International Travel

Heading overseas? It’s important to check local laws regarding personal defense tools which vary from country to country. The non-lethal nature of HERO® devices makes them more widely allowed compared to firearms.
