Attack-DVR Blinds and Deafens an Attacker, Records It All on Video

There are plenty of self-defense solutions available out there, on the market (after all, we're going through some pretty difficult and dangerous times right now), and one of the coolest such products we've come across lately is the Attack-DVR, that not only defends one in case of an assault, it also records it all in video, should the respective person require proof of the aggression in a possible trial.

One of the biggest problems in cases of assaults and aggressions is to prove one's side of the story, especially in the absence of additional witnesses, and, in fact, that's exactly what the Attack-DVR from Mini Gadgets enables, beside offering users a chance to surprise the assailant and perhaps giving them enough time to make their escape or at least call for help.

Unlike most self-defense products, that rely either on gas or electricity in order to incapacitate the aggressor, the Attack-DVR will produce a blinding LED light along with a piercing noise (90+ db), thus managing not only to take the aggressor by surprise, but also to draw some attention to the scene.

As mentioned before, beside potentially scaring away the aggressor, the device will also record the whole event, at 640 x 480 pixels resolution and 30FPS, the captured clips being stored on SD cards (up to 32GB cards are supported).

Last, but certainly not least, we'll have to mention that the Attack-DVR is powered by a rechargeable battery and offers a 65 degree viewing angle.

Despite providing quite a serious level of versatility (at least as far as self-defense solutions are concerned), the Attack-DVR is not even that expensive, the handheld gadget selling for somewhere in the vicinity of 92 US dollars, for which users will get, beside the device itself, an USB Cable, a wall adapter, an instruction booklet and a software disc.
