Personal alarms add сonvenienсe and versatility to your safety plan. With proper portable alarm protection, you increase your safety in dangerous zones, such as dark parking lots. Carry these small alarms alone, or in combination with other self defence devices, such as Pepper Spray. These small alarms emit a loud, ear piercing shriek with enough decibels to exceed the comfort level of humans. You should look at alarms with at least 120+ decibels. There are added security benefits to carrying a personal alarm, one of the most important of which is the ability to possess a personal safety device that cannot be turned against its owner. You can use the device to attract attention and discourage an attacker. This is especially useful in public places and you do not have to worry about the perpetrator grabbing the device and using it to cause you harm. These devices may also be connected to cell phones and other belongings to alert the owner of an attempted theft.
