Personal Alarm for Women 140DB Emergency Self-Defense Security Alarm Keychain with LED Light for Women Kids and Elders-2 Pack

Got as gift for granddaughter going away to college for first time, it is loud & hopefully she will never have to use it.

Very loud very effective. Nice flashlight.Once I had one of these go off randomly when 8 was inside a pharmacy in line to get my scripts! So I dabbed just a tiny dip of crazy glue on the pull string so it doesn't slide out on it's own.

I tested these as soon as they came in. The light on it isn't the brightest, but it would do in a pinch. I tested both for the alarm sound, and it was so loud it triggered a minor headache. To me, that's a real deterrent! It almost hurts your ears. Battery is replaceable. I feel I got more than my money's worth.

I think that safety is important, I purchased a multipack to share with family. The warning on the instructions has me concerned due to potential hearing loss with exposure. Also there are a few places that I cannot have this device on my person which defeats the purpose of a personal alarm. Otherwise it appeared to be a good choice when traveling alone. To make a noise so others might help, or take photos? To interrupt an attack may outweigh the potential for hearing loss to an elderly possesser.

I’m on a limited fixed budget so I maintain a Wish List of things I need to buy, things I want to buy and, well, dreams. I prioritize them and, when the money becomes available I buy them and check them off the list.This has been in my list for a while. Silly, really, as this was a pretty high priority purchase. I live in a very large city in a mixed neighborhood. Interestingly, the convenience store closest to my apartment seems to be staffed exclusively with people of Nepalese descent. A couple of times recently I could tell that the night clerk, a young female, was afraid. This bothered me not only on a human level but because I have found the Nepalese people to be uniformly polite, kind and gentle. So when I reviewed my Wish List again and saw that I could buy two alarms for such a decent price I had to place my order.I saw that it requires three LR44 batteries to operate so I bought a 40 pack separately at a very affordable price. When I received the alarm and pulled the lanyard out of curiosity the alarm activated! I was pleasantly surprised to find out that it came with batteries installed.The brief instruction manual is poorly translated but that is not really significant.When I brought the alarm and some replacement batteries to the store to give to the clerk I was worried that she might doubt my intentions and refuse it. But she seemed very interested if a bit nervous when I explained about how loud the sound is. I decided to demonstrate and pulled the lanyard and quickly reinstalled the pin. I do not believe, as others have mentioned in the comments, that this is 140DB. But again, not significant. A very reasonable price, easy to use and I believe very effective in situations we may possibly encounter.So she’s happy, I’m happy, and that’s cool. And I forgot to tell her about the LED light. 😊

Cute. Small. Loud.

Great Item!! I highly recommend this product! Very prompt delivery. Excellent Seller!

Loud. Good size, easy to use but too easy. Once the pin comes out it’s a minute to get it back in. Does what you want until kids think it’s funny to pull pin. If you lose the pin, well…. That stinks.
