Review on Self Defense Personal Alarm Keychain For Women – USB Rechargeable Waterproof 130 DB Security Panic Button Siren Whistle With LED Light – Safety Sound Alert Device Key Chain By WETEN (Blue) by Will Randles

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Compact, loud and easy to use, should provide a nice protective device for night workers.

Got this for someone who is a delivery person and works at night. Person is a female black belt, so can normally take care of herself. Her sister asked for a pepper spray, but I advised against it as it can sometimes backfire with wind conditions and proximity. Recommended actions for being attacked or threatened vary, but it's most effective to run. This can create a distraction to unnerve an attacker, especially in populated areas as the alarm will bring others. Flashing light is disruptive as well, and will blind at night, and disorient at least for a few seconds. Enough to counter, or run, whatever is best for the situation.I read something that is supported by human nature, and this type of device is similar in effect. You create a decision for an attacker. If someone pulls a knife or threatens it advocated that you carry a wad of cash (small medium bills maybe) and throw it if accosted, then run away. What would a robber do if confronted with this? Run after you, or pick up the money? Likely the money would be the goal, so you can get way. Likewise, if wanting to rob a delivery driver, having the neighborhood come out to watch would not be wanted. The high-pitched sound and flashing light allow escape or other action, the attacker will likely decide to run off as well. Inexpensive, and device that won't backfire on you like a pepper spray, zapper or offensive device. Recommended.

Pros
  • Able to hang on my keychain, not too bulky, haven't tried the alarm yet but light works good.
Cons
  • Alarm sound may not be distinguishable from other loud, sudden noises
