I've been trying to do some research on bear spray online (I am looking to purchase some), but it seems like all of the websites I come across are promoting some particular brand that they also happen to sell, so it is tough to get an unbiased opinion. So, I decided to check with the people here to see if any of you have any experience with any brands of bear spray. I'm looking for a good, reliable spray that can be used on bears, as well as other potentially dangerous wildlife like coyotes and the like. I'd like to not spend *too* much money if possible, but of course you can't put a pricetag on your safety, so I'd rather spend more money than buy an inferior product. I'm mainly a day-hiker, so I guess the effectiveness of the spray is a bit more important than it's capacity, since I won't be out on a hike for very prolonged periods of time.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions people may have.
