Great sound device... with no moving parts.
This horn was the simplest solution to an important piece of safety gear. There are no moving parts and nothing to corrode in a saltwater environment. HONK!

Product Needs Improvement
As you can see in the photo, there is a small film of cellophane that is barely glued to the cap and is easily removable. There are no instructions and no warning not to remove the cap and once it is removed, it cannot be placed back on the horn without damaging the cellophane. Once there is a hole in the cellophane, then the horn will not no longer work. The cap needs to be permanently fixed so an unknowing person will not remove. My product window return has now closed. I will need to search for a thin piece of cellophane in order to fix this product. Instructions need to be provided warning not to remove the cap. It would be nice if the company provided extra cellophane in case someone accidentally takes off the cap.

Perfect for my needs!
Great signaling device! Easy to use. So loud, I almost need earplugs when blowing it full out. HOwever, it is also easy to regulate how loud by how much you blow into the device. It is super easy, however, to blow it its loudest.It does not sound like a regular whistle, which is a very high-pitched sound. The sound is not as high, making it more audible in certain situations. It does have the tone and audible range of a duck call, but is does not sound like a duck call. It has a more steady sound like a whistle, but again, slightly lower-pitched .It is larger than I expected...about the size of a small air-horn....it makes carrying more bundle-some but makes handling easier. It is more dependable than an air-horn in that it cannot run out of air when you need it most.Love the color....it is a beautiful blue! The lanyard could definitely be longer....it is too short (my only criticism). The other reviewers said it didn't work at first because they were blowing in the wrong place, but the device is (just now? or always has been?) clearly marked right on it how to use, as pictured in my 2nd image provided. The first image should give you an idea of the size of the device since I shot it in my hand.Overall, it was just what I was looking for in my particular applications: 1. a loud signal while hiking to scare off unwanted wildlife (bears and mountain lions), 2, a loud signal to ward off loose dogs while urban walking, 3. an emergency signal for both urban and wilderness, 4. an emergency signal for when I am volunteering in my local animal shelter. I always worried about the air-horns for this because I have had them fail and also run out of air.This is so much better than all the emergency whistles I have purchased and much better than an air horn.Thanks!

Compact and nexpensive alternative to an air horn - better than a whistle
I bought this to keep with us in a summer cottage we own in the country where there is a high prevalence of black bears that are sometimes bold enough to walk right in and see what's in the fridge. I wanted something I could use in case of emergency to scare away wildlife.This is a small, plastic item that can be tucked away in a pocket or hung around your neck (or attached to your dog's leash - which we will do). It is the right size so that it is easy to have around when you need it. Air horns seemed too big, clunky and expensive and this seemed like a good portable alternative.It is *very* loud, which is good and bad. It's good for its stated purpose. It's bad because it's mere inches away from your own ears when you blow into it. I would say this would only be used in an extreme emergency, which is okay for me. And you can't really blow it fully because I suspect you might damage your own hearing if you did.I didn't give it 5 stars because there are no directions on how to use it. We had to Google to find out how to remove the plastic shield and use it - you blow through the small hole on the side, not through the end which you might think when you first see it.For the price and the form factor/size I think it's a great product to have around in case of emergency. It's also a great option considering the other products and prices in this category.

Loud, sturdy, variable pitch, pocket size
After learning about the existence of these human-powered, kazoo-like horns I bought three different kinds. From high to low price: the "Attwood Bellow Signal Horn", the "SeaSense Safety Blaster Horn", and the "Coghlan's Emergency Survival Horn".All allow you to simply blow to make a loud, kazoo-like sound.All allow you to replace the vibrating membrane with any thin sheet of plastic (such as plastic wrap).All are made of hard plastic and should be impervious to water damage, although the Coughland is made of a cheaper, more brittle plastic, while the SeaSense is of a more robust plastic, with the Atwood in between.In loudness, the Coughland was the softest, while the SeaSense and Atwood seemed equally very loud. It was easy with the Atwood to blow softer or harder to make the sound quieter or louder -- not so easy with the others.In pitch, the Coughland was the lowest, the Atwood in the middle and the SeaSense was the highest. Uniquely, the SeaSense can easily be configured to produce three different pitches -- which might make a difference depending upon the context (e.g. on open water vs in a forest or in a mountain valley).In size, the Coughland and SeaSense were about equal and could if needed fit into most pockets, the Atwood was two to three times as large.In price, the Atwood was three times the price of the other two.The Coughland and SeaSense both emit sound to the left and right (near your ears). Cupping your hands behind the left & right ends shield your ears a little from the loudness. The Atwood emits sound forward and away from you, which helps a little. All of them will be loud to your ears no matter what you do.
