Bear Safety: How to Deploy Bear Spray

I recently noticed this video on how to deploy bear spray on the Glacier Institute's website. I thought this was a quick, worthwhile instructional video for those that carry bear spray, but have never had to use it. In it, you'll notice Garrett deploys the entire cannister. I'm not so sure that's the proper thing to do in the event of a charging bear. My understanding is that you should only spray for a few seconds to create a cloud, while keeping a few seconds of spray left in reserve in case the first burst didn't work for some reason (wrong wind direction, bear didn't approach close enough, etc.), and the bear were to return. I could be wrong on this, so please feel free to leave a comment below if you have a different thought or information.
