Safety Whistle Blows 120 Decibels

Safety Whistle Blows 120 Decibels SECURITY/SAFETY Alarms “Anyone who works alone on a farm should have a Safety Whistle in their pocket or clipped to their clothing ” says Robert Cameron Whistles for Life Bend Oregon The company’s “tri-power” whistle is made of durable ABS plastic and has 3 different chambers to produce different tones The main chamber contains a waterproof “pea” and creates a loud 120-decibel staccato sound that can be heard above the roar of wind and farm machinery Two pea-less side chambers create separate high-pitched sounds each with a different tone that increase the odds the sound will be distinct The whistle has a hands-free mouth grip and sure-grip ridges on both sides for wet cold or gloved hands “No other whistle is as loud or produces as many different tones ” says Cameron who notes that it’s the official whistle for the National Search and Rescue Organization the American Red Cross Lifeguards the United States Lifeguard Association and the National Boat Safety Council It’s also used by many law enforcement agencies “Most other whistles on the market put out a maximum of 84 to 96 decibels and are pealess However pealess whistles can’t be heard in high winds or when there’s rushing water You need the stacatto sound produced by a pea whistle so that people can hear you ” Cameron says he came up with the idea because as the president of a search and rescue team in Montana for many years he saw too many farm accidents where a whistle could have made the difference between life and death “For example the 16-year-old daughter of a friend’s neighbor was baling hay one day and when she didn’t come home for supper they started looking ” says Cameron “They found her under the baler next to the pto driveline She had crawled under there while the baler was still running to remove some baling wire wrapped up in the driveline’s U-joint Her fingers got caught in the wire and by the time they found her she had bled to death Our whistle might have saved her The whistle is available in 7 different colors “We can custom brand the whistle and apply any company’s logo onto it ” says Cameron noting that they sell only to wholesalers It’s available at REI and on Amazon com and sells for $5 to $10 plus S&H Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Whistles for Life 61535 S Hwy 97 STE 9-515 Bend Oregon 97702 ph 541 668-7308 or cell ph 360 815-6677; www whistlesforlifellc com; info@whistlesforlifellc com
