Personal protection and a witness in one device – Handheld Attack DVR


Dec 14, 2010
Living in big cities brings some danger for those who like or have to walk around town during the night. You have to pay attention to everything that is going on around you, and sometimes situations cannot be controlled by you.

These days we all have something for our protection like pepper sprays, panic buttons and some have their own bodyguards. There is another gadget for personal protection and it could be an addition to your usual devices.

Handheld Attack DVR flashes blinding led lights and produces a very loud sound of more than 90 decibel. It looks like a pepper spray and can attract attention of other people and scare off potential attackers. Its main function is to record video at the scene. It can record video at 640 x 480 resolution and audio when you activate it. You can download recorded video and audio to your PC via USB cable.

Attack DVR is equipped with a rechargeable battery and supports up to 32GB SD cards. Gadgets like this one are used by security companies. I would personally upgrade this thing with a radio transmitter, and use it as a professional device. But if you want something small and effective this one might work. It can also be attached to your keychain and will fit great in your pocket.

Attack DVR is available from Amazon.com
