The problem with capsasain and bears is that if the dose is not strong enough it will actually attract bears. They like the smell. So only a strong dose in a mucous membrane will do the trick then you had better pitch out the used dispenser.
Of course it is going to get on you too, so while it may disable and deter the bear, it may do the same to you.
I must be especially sensitive to the stuff. It always worked better on me than it did on the violent drunks and dopers I was dealing with. I quit carrying it and went back to the old fashioned way of getting peoples attention. My co-workers knew that if they used that stuff around me they were on their own.
There is a story up North about the floatplane operator who dropped off a big city guy for a wilderness fishing experience on a remote lake. He warned the guy ahead of time that the bugs and the bears were pretty thick at that time of the year. His passenger assured him he was totally prepared with bug spray and (because he was highly cultured and did not “believe” in guns and violence) he brought along extra bear spray.
When the pilot circled back over the lake after dropping him off, he saw the guy laying on the lakeshore doing the chicken. So he radioed Anchorage to report a medical emergency and landed again to render what assistance he could.
Turned out the guy gave himself a dose of bug spray and did ok with that, but when he applied the bear repellant in the same manner it apparently had some sort of deleterious effect (!!?!)
I reckon it doesn’t pay to get too cultured.

Billy. There is still time. No one has covered lions or tigers yet.

I have never gotten one of those stupid permanent coffee filters to work right. Near as I can tell the mesh plugs up with fines or scale and can't handle the water flow. So it overflows over the top and sides and makes a gloppy mess in the pot. There are completely worfless, as my southern freinds would say. (Sorry Peters)
