Product Description
Product Description
We are born explorers. The eAlarm+ helps us explore with confidence. It is an ultra-compact emergency alarm, small in size but big in sound. Once you pull the pin, the device emits a 130 decibel alarm. The siren will sound continuously for 30 minutes unless pin is returned to device. The eAlarm+ allows maximum utility for those intending to use in the outdoors with a rugged rubber water-resistant shield. The extra bottom hook feature allows easy construction of a tripwire or campsite alarm. INCLUDED: Battery and Metal Carabiner.

These are quite loud and easy to use but are secure enough to minimize false alarms. Great for daughters to attach to a keychain.
With 2 open ends I can attach a trip-line to the ends and to natural features while out in the field to create a perimeter alarm.
This review has three parts: the BASU alarm, Amazon, and the USPS.
For the BASU alarm itself, a solid four stars. Very nice, sturdy and sufficiently loud to get the attention you need. I liked it so much I ordered another one for my sister and have subsequently ordered five more for Christmas gifts. My only grip is that BASU seams to has discontinued this model which is a shame because the loops on both ends gives the user more options for deployment. I can hook the alarm to a backpack or computer bag and the other end to a fixed object and it my bag tries to “run away” the alarm will be tripped. Or I can loop it around a hotel room door knob with some paracord and have an impromptu room alarm. You can’t do that with models with a loop on just one end. I e-mailed BASU to ask if it had in fact been discontinued, but never heard back from them.
Now for Amazon - five stars. The second one I ordered was shipped in a timely manor but was lost by the USPS. When it was determined my package was missing, Amazon gave me the options of canceling or re-ordering it. I chose to re-order. I re-ordered it on Sept. 30th at 7:17 p.m. and it was delivered at 3:52 p.m. the next day. Yes, less than 24 hours. THANK YOU Amazon.
And to the USPS, zero stars. Enough said.
EDIT: I read a lot of reviews that said people were disappointed that the pin stays attached to you and you are left with he alarm in your hand and that they would rather have the alarm attached to them. This is done on purpose. You are meant to throw the alarm into bushes or away from you in general so the attacker either cannot find the alarm to silence it, needs to move away from you in an attempt to silence the alarm, or so they do not try to go after you/attack you in an attempt to get to and silence the alarm. You WANT the alarm away from your personal body.
