This winter looks set to be colder than those of recent years, which makes it even more important that you check that your perso Does your personal alarm work when its freezing cold? Longer dark nights, cold and dismal weather and fewer people on the streets, combine to make winter the time when many people focus more on carrying their personal alarm (sometimes referred to as a rape alarm) when out and about, but beware, not all security alarms are as effective as they should be. This winter looks set to be colder than those of recent years, which makes it even more important that you check that your personal alarm works effectively now, rather than finding out that it doesn't when you actually need it most. Why should you bother? ...well it's quite simple, whether you have a gas operated alarm or a battery operated unit, in low temperatures, either type can operate at less than 100 percent efficiency; If You Use a Gas Operated Alarm ...we strongly recomend that you test it's performance in very cold conditions, as in our experience, when testing this type of unit in freezing conditions, the sound emitted came out more as a stangled hiss than a vibrant screech before failing completely. If You Use a Battery Operated Alarm ...please be aware that in cold conditions, all batteries operate less efficiently than in warm conditions, so if your battery is old or not fully charged your alarm may not work as well as normal (although Unlike a gas alarm it should still produce a loud sound when activated). It's worth remembering that good quality electronic personal alarms are manufactured from quality components, whereas cheap copies typically use inferior components and circuitry, which can lead to rapid draining and premature failure of the battery ...even if the alarm's siren is never activated. ...so whatever type of personal alarm you carry, please don't trust to luck, just like you would a smoke detector, etc. regulary check that it is working properly.
