Windsor Electronic Whistle Single-Tone

I am a teacher and I use this electronic whistle to maintain control in the classroom. This is especially true at the beginning of the year when high school kids are the most rambunctious. I find the electronic whistle to be much more effective than ringing a bell to get the students attention and to get them to quiet down. Much more effective then having to raise my voice. The whistle's high-pitched shrill tone is perfect as it hits high frequencies that adults cannot hear but teenagers can. I don't have to use this whistle more than once a week after students get to know the classroom rules because the students hate it so much. The best compliment I have ever received for this whistle came from a teenage girl who asked me to stop using it because the tone was so jarring to her that it almost made her "pee in her pants." I told her to use peer pressure among her classmates to keep them quiet when I raised my hand in class. So the good news is that the sight of this whistle works like the bell did with Pavlov's dogs. When the classroom gets rowdy, the students will see me pull the whistle out of my pocket (it's bright orange and black) and they will quickly settle down. This is one device that should be in EVERY TEACHER'S TOOLKIT!

I bought this for my wife for when she takes her students out to recess, and she loves it. It seems slightly less loud than a standard whistle, but it's been loud enough for her needs, and of course a standard whistle is pretty close to your ears when you're blowing it, whereas this one isn't. One small drawback is that she likes to keep this in her purse, and there's no way to cover the always-exposed button. That's one improvement I'd like to see for anyone who wants to keep this in a pocket or purse, but doesn't want it to accidentally be triggered.

I'm a collegiate hockey coach and purchased this whistle because I contracted Bell's Palsy as our season was beginning and couldn't blow a whistle. I thought about an air horn, but what I really wanted was something that sounded like a whistle. When I found this product I was a little apprehensive about it because I wasn't sure if it would be loud enough at the rink. It is not as loud as a mouth blown whistle (thus the four stars), but once the players started listening for it, it was loud enough to get their attention. Mouth blown whistles are between 115-127 db, this one is around 105 db. My normal whistle is pitched a bit higher than the other coaches whistles, and the Windsor has a similar higher pitch. If your players are used to a lower pitched whistle this one might take some getting used to. I've recovered from the Bell's Palsy and have gone back to my normal whistle, but this did work well for me at the rink.

Perfect to give whistle commands for archery instruction. I used it at camp every day for weeks and it held up great. Nice and loud. Doesn't sound exactly like a traditional whistle but the students responded to it well. We agreed it sounds like a loud angry cricket.

I officiate sports and during the Volleyball season, I needed an electronic whistle. Looking at several of the different versions, I settled on this one. When I show up to matches, My partners have other brands including the Fox. Most officials know that the Fox 40 whistle is loud and works well so they figured go with the Fox electronic version. My Windsor is much louder than the Fox and others that officials have shown up with. Players, Coaches and fans know when I sound the whistle the first time. That's important with all of the noise going on during the match. Would recommend the Windsor and will buy again.

This whistle worked great, for LESS THAN TWO MONTHS!!! As a P.E. teacher, I love the ease of carrying it with the wrist strap, and I like the whistle tone, not to mention that I was no longer putting my mouth on a metal whistle. When it quit working, I thought it just needed new batteries, but even brand new batteries wouldn't fix it. To top it off, Amazon won't allow me to return it since I purchased it in July (though I didn't use it until late August when school started). VERY DISAPPOINTING!

This whistle is nice and loud. It is compact enough for my workout pants’ pocket. I needed something to get the attention of 3- to 5-year-olds during soccer practice. One kid liked to dribble the ball away when he went out of bounds. This whistle did the trick!

Great sound. Stopped working after a few months. The one before lasted years and only stopped working because I dropped it multiple times. I’m very disappointed.

Le falta potencia al sonido

I coach or act as captain and everyone either wants one of these now or wants to press the button. Works well indoors and well enouh outside, a great product

Awesome! It keeps from people sharing a dirty whistle. I love it and would buy again. The sound is loud enough for elementary school size gym. A traditional whistle may be louder but this is better!

Genau, das was man in der Halle braucht. Laut und handlich. Gerade bei großen Kindergruppen sehr sinnvoll.

This whistle has driven my players crazy which makes me happy. Honestly, it has saved my voice and lowered my blood pressure!
