The pocket alarm with 120 DB Women are increasingly stocking up on pepper spray, stun guns and pocket sirens. But the use of pepper spray in particular is often questionable because the spray can only be used in self-defense and when the attacker comes physically close to you. But by then it is usually too late to get out of the situation unscathed. In addition, when using pepper spray you should always check the direction of the wind because otherwise there is a risk that you could get the strong spray in your eyes. It is therefore much better to use a pocket alarm. The police also like to recommend this device to women. Because if your mouth is covered during an attack, for example, you can usually still reach into your trouser or jacket pocket and press the alarm. When the pocket siren is activated, an extremely loud, unmistakable sound is emitted. It is roughly comparable to the volume of a jet taking off. The alarm that is triggered frightens the attacker extremely and people in the area become aware of the situation and can help. The shrill sound also has an additional effect: the attacker notices that you, as a woman, cannot be intimidated and are not defenseless. And to be honest: if you are a woman traveling alone in India, for example, where rape of women is practically the order of the day, an Indian attacker will certainly not know what pepper spray looks like and will therefore not be deterred from the outset. On top of that, the pocket alarm is also particularly suitable for children to call for help in the event of danger. Another advantage of pocket sirens or pocket alarms: they are inexpensive to buy, easy to use - even in the most stressful situation - and they have no side effects. And pocket alarms cannot be used against the user. The attacker is not injured. This means that there is no risk of negligent bodily harm. The alarm siren for the handbag or attached to the waistband is immediately to hand in a dangerous situation and is equipped with three functions:

1. The attacker is deterred by an unmistakably loud and shrill sound of around 120 decibels. The people in the area are also immediately made aware. The alarm is activated by simply pulling down firmly on the metal ring at the bottom and removing the pin.
2. Your own bag is also well protected with this alarm. To do this, the loop that comes with the device is simply connected to a piece of clothing and the alarm itself is attached to the bag. If the thief snatches the bag, the alarm is triggered immediately, and the criminal attracts attention because he cannot turn off the alarm. Because the metal pin ends up hanging on the loop that hangs on the victim's body. The criminal will then most likely drop the bag.
3. An LED light is often built into the pocket siren. This is particularly practical in the dark when you need to quickly find the keyhole for the car. Instead of searching for a long time, the door is opened in seconds.
