Personal alarms are among the most popular self defense products on the market today. These loud alarms are designed to draw attention to a dangerous situation, such as when you are being attacked or in the event of a medical emergency. Personal alarms are so simple anyone can use them. They are especially recommended for children and the elderly. Here are the answers to the questions everyone is asking about personal alarms:

How big are these alarms? How convenient are they to carry?

Personal alarms are usually no bigger than a garage door opener. Most are around 2 1/4 by 1 1/2 inches, and new technology has resulted in smaller and smaller alarm devices. Currently available personal alarms are small enough to be carried in any purse or pocket. Many also have a keychain attachments. These lightweight devices weigh an ounce or less, making them a very convenient form of protection.

Are personal alarms legal to carry?

Yes, portable personal alarms are legal to carry everywhere with you, in every state, even on airplanes. You can protect yourself anywhere you go when you have a personal alarm.

What uses are there for personal alarms?

Not everyone is prepared to use force to stop an attack. A personal alarm can be used to alert bystanders and get help. The piercing noise of the alarm will make many assailants turn and run. In many other cases, such as a fall or medical emergency, a personal alarm can be invaluable. Personal alarms can even be used to scare away wild or domestic animals. Many even double as door or window alarms.

How loud are personal alarms?

The audible feature of a personal alarm is a high pitched sound of 120 decibels or more. For comparison, this is nearly as loud as a jet engine from just 100 feet away, and louder than a power mower. This level of noise is uncomfortable to listen to even for just a second or two, and it is loud enough to draw attention from a wide area. Criminals do not like to draw attention to themselves, and will likely run off when they realize the alarm cannot be stopped, even if no one comes to your rescue.

What are the advantages of personal alarms?

Personal alarms are one of the safest and most effective ways to protect yourself. Unlike other self defense devices, there is absolutely zero chance of it being used against you. In addition, personal alarms are a popular choice for those who are unwilling or unable to use force to stop an attacker, and can be used by anyone, regardless of physical abilities or age. They require no training or permits to carry or use.

What are the disadvantages of personal alarms?

Personal alarms are a passive device, in that they will not actually disable the assailant. Still, these are very effective devices for a wide range of applications. Remember, personal alarms have applications far beyond simply self defense. In addition, the alarm has done its job if it causes others to come to your aid or causes the attacker to retreat. Many people do carry both pepper spray and a stun gun or pepper spray canister for an even stronger self defense plan.
