As mentioned previously, let's try and keep this threat on topic.

I see what you did there.

Oops!

Typo, sorry

How long does the battery last?

I've had it for 18 months,  used several times a week. still on the original batteries.

Thanks, was looking for something smaller than an air horn. Will give it a try.

When i am out on my bike i find i have far more problems with pedestrians than with cars. People with kids, dog walkers with their ultra long leads and the worst one is joggers or walkers wearing headphones. It,s a waste of time having a bell on your bike because they are in their little world and can,t hear a thing. Still, at least they,re softer to land on than a car.

I use a hornit db140.  2 modes, one for cars and one for pedestrians.  more than happy with it

Based on the Youtube video from the manufacturer that is an exceptionally unpleasant noise - hope its not used too often!

But it works and it's less clunky than an air horn or a compressed gas type.
