      Comments about Emergency Whistle:

      I always wear this whistle along with a headlamp or flashlight during severe weather. Since the destruction of the EF5 tornados of Moore, AK 2013, Joplin, MO 2011 and my own homestate of Alabama in 2011, I hope this whistle would help rescuers find me if needed. I also plan to wear this when hiking, skiing or any backcountry activity; I just feel safer knowing I could alert someone to my whereabouts if needed with little effort.

          Purchased it when it was recently on sale for [$]. I bought it just to have around just in case and when I blow it just to fool around at home. It annoys the hell out of my wife. That's a good thing.

                Comments about Emergency Whistle:

                I bought two of these whistles for myself and my mother to use, because we walk outdoors for exercise. Nowadays, no one is safe outside. We like to walk in the early morning hours in the summer, before the sun comes up.

                These whistles don't require alot of lung power in order to blow them, unlike coaching whistles. Also, they are very loud, therefore if you need to summon help, someone will hear you.

                This is a great product for the elderly, young children or anymore with lung problems to use.

                    I bought this as a protective device to use along with my mace. A few months after I got it, I had surgery and needed my somewhat hard of hearing husband's help for some things. I tried shouting for him and depending on where he was in the house he couldn't hear me and the shouting hurt too. He certainly couldn't hear the hand bell we had and walking around the house trying to find him was EXHAUSTING and out of the question. Then I remembered the whistle! It worked GREAT! Thankfully, that's the only time I've had to use it. Very handy!

                      This whistle is very sleek and loud. But, on a key ring, you don't hear the little ball rattling around like normal whistles. This is just what I was looking for and will most likely purchase another one to keep on my work keys too.
