- Second loudest handheld whistle in the world, 123 dB
- Little effort to blow
- Ergonomic shape, easy to grip
- Performs in all conditions
The Windstorm™ Whistle is the second loudest handheld whistle in the world, behind only the Storm®, producing a powerful 123 dB sound that carries over long distance. It’s a more compact and lighter version of the Storm with slightly lower loudness. It takes little effort to blow and the unique shape is easy to grip so you won’t tire as quickly when you’re injured and seeking rescue. This whistle is very loud, so cover your ears.
The Windstorm utilizes a patented harmonic resonance dual-chamber design where high and low frequencies are focused into an extremely loud single frequency with double the standard amplitude. The result is a clear, high frequency sound with a deeper, more powerful tone that’s significantly louder and more easily heard than other safety whistles. A pea in the upper chamber results in a trill sound that is unmistakable from anything else in nature.
This whistle performs in all conditions. Even noisy howling wind is no match. It can be heard on land up to 0.5 mile (0.8 km), over water up to 1 mile (1.6 km), and even underwater up to 50 ft (15 m). While most whistles struggle to make a sound after surfacing from under water, Windstorm’s water purging design clears like a champ. And the high-impact, non-corroding, thermoplastic housing can be used safely in the cold.
The best whistle is the one you have on you when you need it. While it may be too bulky for some pockets, this whistle has a split ring to easily attach to your pack, clothing, lanyard, or keychain. True, the shape may be different, but this is the whistle you want when being heard is a matter of life and death.
Windstorm is SOLAS Coast Guard approved and has been adopted by military, police/security forces, and search & rescue teams worldwide. Made in USA.
