140db Police Approved Mini Minder Loud Personal Staff Panic Rape Attack Safety Security Alarm Keyring - Secured by Design Approved (Police Preferred Specification) (Black)

Fantastic. Its so loud it hurts my ears. Simply pull the pin (with the nylon woven strap on) out, and to stop it, push it back in. Either operation is easy to do, but of course if attacked you would hold the pin, and the attacker would not.I want it to frighten off attacking dogs. I can well believe the claims that it will do that effectively.I think I will tie some nylon cord to the strap on the pin, and attach the other end to my belt with a spring clip, so I do not lose the pin.I think keeping it in a pocket inside a small cushioned camera case would ensure that the pin was not pulled by accident: you could leave it unzipped, provided the open end was upwards. Alternatively, wrap a thick rubber band around the device so the pin and strap are held close against it. Then only a very sharp pull will set the alarm off.

I suffered a stroke in Oct. 2015 and wanted some way of attracting some-ones attention when I'm out and about if in the likely event it ever happens again. This little alarm goes everywhere with me now and it is extremely loud ! A simple pull on the cord and it's activated. It is so loud that no-one could really dismiss the fact that something is wrong somewhere thus bringing their attention to me. In my wallet and on the cover of a small note book in my pocket the words “Acute Stroke 31st Oct 2015” are clearly visible should anything happen again. If it does, I hope someone will come across my wallet or note book for identification purposes and seeing these words take the appropriate emergency action. Even if that “someone” was just stealing my wallet at least I would still hopefully stand a chance of them taking the appropriate emergency action. I would definitely recommend this small, very inexpensive peace of mind personal alarm to anyone in a similar situation as myself. On my recommendation my neighbour now has one and also carries hers with her everywhere. Again a definite recommendation to everyone. Thank you Eposgear. I do sincerely hope this helps others.

This alarm is loud. Like seriously loud. The longer it sounds the more piercing it is to the ears. The alarm seems to be well built and I've already recommended this to others.I haven't quite used it for the purpose it was designed for. I stuck this alarm to the wall next to my front door so it can be pulled to alert others in/outside of the house and scare off the would-be thief/attacker.A man knocked on my door and my mum answered. He tried to talk his way in but my mum had the good sense to call me. This incident made me realise I need to beef up security and this little device was one small idea. Fortunately the kids in my family are well behaved so they won't pull the cord or open the door to strangers.

The sound produced is extremely loud; ear-piercing, shrill and deafening like a really powerful burglar alarm. It is slightly thicker than I imagined (not excessively so). The only downside that the string seems like it could easily get caught in something and trigger the alarm by accident, however the pin it is attached to does seem to be securely in place; you have to deliberately pull it out so it shouldn't just slip. At this price however, you really can't beat it. I live in a densely-populated student area where there have been a lot of stabbings and sexual assaults recently so I just bought it for peace of mind really. Highly recommend.

This is my second alarm, and I think my first one must have been faulty because this one is extremely loud! Its uncomfortable to be around when you pull out the plug, which is exactly what you need!+ As a female, I feel a bit safer owning this. I took it to a camping festival.+ I like that there is a separate key chain to the pin plug.+ It's small and compact, nice colour.- I don't know what the function of the big button on the front labelled minder is as it doesn't add or do anything (is it for blind people?)- The instructions said it should have come with a paper pullout from the battery, (to preserve battery I'm guessing so it stays new), it didn't have this, but the alarm still works.Recommended, for peace of mind!

Yes these are very loud, I pulled the pin to check it worked (as you do) and was instantly deafened.They are decent quality and certainly value for money. I bought 4, one I keep with me at all times, the others are fitted inside our sheds and will go off if anyone so much as sneezes in the vacinity of them :) I would definitely recommend them to otther buyers, as a personal alarm or as an additional alarm for your shed or outhouse, the fitting of which is very simple and effective.

Unsure how much I like this but haven't owned any others to compare it to.It works, it's lightweight and its loud- it shocked me for a few seconds when I tested it even though I was expecting a loud noise. I think it could give you a few seconds to get away from an attacker definitely.The keyring is useful but I wouldn't want it on my keys because 1. my bunch of keys are already bulky and so is this alarm fob. 2. my keys are not always easy to access (in the bottom of my bag/zipped pocket etc.) 3. Ideally I need to keep my hands free so carrying the fob in hand isn't really a practical option.The easiest way to use it would be to put your belt/bag strap and just give the alarm a good tug to release the pin if needed (that way you wont accidently drop the pin like I did when I tested it which is a bonus). This is probably a more sensible approach to using it rather than as a keyring if you don't want to carry it in your hands. I do a lot of evening dog walking though and fear I may accidently set it off though if it catches on leads or something.Good item but I'm just not sure how practical for my situation it's going to be to keep it ready for use.

Loved the product. Took a little longer then I thought to get it.

Compact, pas gadget, pratique

These have a very loud alarm. I sent others back because they were not loud at all. I did take 6-8 weeks to get in the US, but they are worth the wait since other brands are do not work as promised, again these work great.

Una alarma pequeña que no estorba y con mucha potencia de sonido la lleva mi esposa ya que madruga para ir a trabajar y se siente segura

This device is super loud, almost hurts the ears inside and when entrusting it as a gift for my wife and mother, I'm confident it'll be heard should anything happen to them. The device is super easy to use, pull the lanyard out of the device and it starts screaming, and can only be shut off by replacing the lanyard component. This is a great design because an attacker be hard pressed trying to find a tiny little lanyard key, then inserting it into the small hole of this device, all the while trying to subdue their victim, a task which an attacker would know is futile within seconds and more than likely give up their attack because attacker want easy defenseless victims.
