REMEMBER! 
Audible personal attack alarms are designed for use by individuals who are under threat of personal attack and should be used responsibly and with care. 

An audible personal attack alarm is, when operated, intended to startle and disorientate a would-be assailant and provide a distraction so that the user may make an escape. 

It is not intended to be use as a distress signal for attracting attention to a mishap. However, the noise may induce fear of detection and the intervention of others and so this is an opportune secondary function.
