How Loud is the Alarm?

CADEX Q&A. Frequently Asked Questions CADEX? 12 Alarm Watch ...
The Cadex watch has an audible beeping alarm. The alarm is similar to other beeping watches. The tone is rather high pitched. If you suspect you may not be able to hear higher tones, we suggest you go to a department store and ask a clerk in the watch department to set any alarm watch for you. If you can hear the alarm, you will be able to hear the Cadex watch. Not suitable for hearing impaired patients.

If the alarm is placed in the basement, it should easily be heard from the main floor of the house, even behind one or two closed doors. This of course depends on the type of construction, its size, the background noise and each person's hearing capability. Sound level is rated at 95 dB, which is above most such stand alone battery powered units.

The alarm sound is not very loud. What can I do?

My DIY Alarm goes off 45 seconds after arming. Why?

Bulldog security FAQ
If the alarm goes off into full alarm 45 seconds after arming, this is telling you that the current signal of the alarm has been activated. If you have a cell phone, radar detector or aftermarket amplifiers installed in the vehicle, these units pull enough current even when turned off to activate the system. You can disconnect these units from power or turn off the current sensing on the unit. No, each unit is individually coded and has its own unique code number.

Why doesn't my DIY Alarm give me a Warn-Away when you approach the vehicle?

Bulldog security FAQ
The Warn Away responds only when a direct impact is applied to the body. A harder impact after this initial Warn-Away will set the alarm off in full alarm. Make sure the unit is securely mounted with all three screws to the metal body of the vehicle. Also make sure the black wire from the unit is attached to the bracket bolt. If this is all in place, check the white fuse holder and make sure the red power clip is connected firmly to the (+) positive side of the battery.

California BMW Triumph Motorcycles | Shop | Staintune Freque...
Staintune pipes decibel range will vary depending on the bike, and whether or not you use the sound restrictors. On average, as a general rule, the pipes run in the low 90's with the restrictors in place and just over 100 with the restrictors removed. This is a general rule of thumb and can vary up or down depending on the individual bike. A Ducati twin will definitely be more heart and ear pounding than an inline four BMW. The design of the engine can vary the number a few decibels +/-.

We play traditional instruments including acoustic bass - so there's no rock bass and drum to worry about! We can play an acoustic set - i.e. without a PA system. However, this is only suitable for very small venues. We normally use a high quality PA and play at the appropriate volume given the audience and venue - we will always turn it down (or up!) if asked! We are happy to discuss our PA requirements with your venue management in advance of the event.

The THRUSTPAC motors are very quiet. The propellers make the sound you are familiar with on an airplane. We like the sound as it alerts pedestrians and motorists we're coming and they're more aware and cautious because of the attention we receive.
