Well????? I have tried every strain I have been able to find. The scorpion is very bad. Ghosts are ok, but dont have much of a taste.

Pepper spray?

The highest theoretical rating for a pepper on the Scoville scale is the rating of pure capisacin. In reality that can't be a pepper so it would have to be significantly lower than that. So probably 1.5 x the current hottest pepper is what is possible. Also, the ghost pepper (buht jolokia) was used in pepper spray grenades by the Indian military.

Technically a chemical weapon, but the point stands.

Capsaicin was literally evolved to be a chemical weapon. It's purpose is to deter mammals from eating them, but not birds. Also, all fruit has evolved to be eaten. We didn't evolve to eat them.
