What happens if your caught with the wrong pepper spray in NYC or Jersey?

I understand the only legal pepper spray for NYC and Jersey is a miniature, watered down NY legal variety of spray. I don't have any of that type of spray. I use 2 oz and 4 oz magnum sprays that are high potency and can put out a fire. (almost)

If your a tourist and caught in NYC or Jersey with a 2 oz pepper spray what are the consequences? Ticket...confiscation...jail?

I was in NYC less than a week and that was part-time as I stayed in Jersey City. I was surprised to find that NYC and Jersey City seemed very safe. Although I did have a few incidents that could have been iffy. I don't care a bit if my pepper spray is confiscated, I have dozens of cans. But I don't want a big ticket or jail.
