Vigilant PPS20Y 125dB Personal Attack Self Defense Alarm with Red Flashing Locator Light

The PPS20Y is a self defense personal alarm that features a 125dB pin activated emergency alarm. Pulling the pin generates an attention getting, high pitched alarm for up to 30 minutes. Replacing the pin is the only way to silence the alarm. The PPS20Y also has a small, red flashing light, aimed at providing short range directional location for the alarm in the event that the alarm is activated in a low light area. The flashing light can be used independently of the alarm, but also automatically activates if the alarm is triggered. Visibility range of the light is approximately 20 yards at 1 lux brightness (near pitch black conditions), so it is intended merely to aid the alarm with a visual indicator at short distances. Personal alarms are one of the fastest growing segments at retail in the self defense industry, because an attacker's worst enemy is attention. Personal alarms are legal to carry in all 50 states (even on airplanes!) and are a very safe method of self defense. They require no training or skill to operate, and can be used by anyone regardless of age or physical ability. Victims are often too traumatized to shout for help in unfamiliar and dangerous situations, increasing their vulnerability. Criminals do not like to draw attention, and will likely run off when they realize the alarm cannot be stopped.A percentage of the sale from each personal alarm will be donated to missing children's funds and non-profit personal safety organizations nationwide. Although one of the uses of this alarm is rape-prevention, the package itself does not contain the word rape in order to be appropriate for all ages. The PPS20Y is particularly suitable for kids and teenagers, walkers, joggers, night owls, delivery route employees, and college students. The keychain design is perfect for use with house keys or car keys. Vigilant Personal Protection Systems, a Division of Blaze Your Own Path, Inc.
