Questions & Answers
I tried using mine at an event two weeks ago and it didn't work. I didn't have time to double-check the batteries to make sure they were still functional. Because mine didn't work, I assumed the problem was with the batteries. I've had mine for two years and it's been fine up until now, so I'll give it a pass until I check the batteries.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no It makes a screeching noise. It isn't intended for use in the following situations: a speaker with sound For a last-minute get-together, we both had the same idea. The two types of technology are incompatible, so we went to Wally World and bought a regular music speaker, which we then bluetoothed through. I hope this information is useful, and best wishes.
I'm sorry, but I didn't buy this bullhorn, though it does have a siren, according to the ad description. br>I went with black.
When it says detachable microphone, it means you can remove the microphone from its mantle and hold it in your hand while still speaking into it. There isn't much of a difference between a detachable microphone and an internal microphone; it's simply a matter of personal preference, but I do recommend purchasing a megaphone with a detachable microphone.

Have you ever bought something purely for the sake of it, only to use it a few times a year? Then one day, when you try to pull it out, it simply does not work? If that's the case, then this is the item for you! You could go with a less expensive competitor, but Pyle USA appears to be a good company with a good reputation. No, it's a waste of time. It fails you just when you need it the most. I'd accuse HP of planned obsolescence if this were a HP product. It is, however, a loudspeaker. Yes, I could disassemble it and use a multimeter to figure out what went wrong, but why would I want to? I'm just going to give Amazon a detailed account of my experience and hope they lose all of their sales.
UPDATE: Before locating a replacement mic switch, a last-ditch effort succeeded in unsticking the stuck switch - for the time being This work, once again, necessitates patience and knowledge of the electro-mechanical system. the mechanical operation of such circuits This period of recovery could last anywhere from one to six months. who can say - It also has no effect on the two-dimensional problem. Because of the poor design and component, I gave it a one-star rating. Humanity will continue to annihilate itself unless we overcome the disposable culture of planned obsolescence. Our world will not be able to accommodate all of our garbage. br>br>4/9/19: br>br>4/9/19: br>br>4/9/19 The mic in the "Talk" position is now always hot after only a half-dozen uses over fourteen months. A quick look inside confirms that the microphone switch is stuck in the "on" position and will not come out. This is a WRONG COMPONENT! br>br>Unless you can solder and find a suitable replacement switch, the only option is to replace the entire microphone (if a suitable replacement can be found). br>br>In the meantime, the only option is to control the volume with the volume knob. br>br>I'm not pleased with this shoddy design.
I was excited to use this (we live on the coast near too many boaters who come too close to seals in our bay), but the small blue plastic riser broke right off the metal latch the SECOND the batteries went into the (flimsy) battery compartment, and I closed the hinged battery cover against the strong battery compartment springs. br>br>The plastic is EXTREMELY SOFT, and hot glue would not be able to hold it together. Yes, superglue or plastic cement are possibilities, but the immense force focused on this riser will break it regardless. br>br>Worst design I've ever seen. The springs exert too much force on the back lid, so even duct tape couldn't keep it closed. Return is being worked on. br>br>.
While my daughter is at work, I look after my grandson, who is well-liked by all of the children on my street. He would play from one end of the street to the other, and despite having excellent hearing, he would go deaf when I called him to come home for some reason. I would yell his name as I walked down the street. Now I'm sitting on my front porch, dialing his number. He flies home, pleading with me to stop because it's embarrassing for him. I told him that I would yell once, and if he didn't respond, I would use this.
I like how quiet speech is muffled and loud speech is amplified. Normal speech can only be heard a few hundred feet away at maximum volume, so this isn't very loud. I'm deducting a star because the "siren" mode on the switch is placed in an inconvenient location. The siren is activated by switching to the left, the middle is turned off, and the right is activated by switching to the right. If you move the switch slightly too far when turning it off, the megaphone will emit an ear-piercing noise instead of turning off. siren with a piercing tone.
In the last week, I've ordered this item twice. Due to the megaphone not working on both occasions, the product had to be returned. I set up the batteries in the proper configuration and polarity as directed. It was impossible to turn on the device. I experimented with various battery configurations and polarity. It was impossible to turn on the device. I am not going to order this product a third time, but I do require a megaphone.
Coach is in a good mood. It really does project 500 meters at full volume over water and wind, and one set of batteries has lasted over 6 months. For context, this is used on a daily basis for over an hour of coaching, with the volume set to medium. It had taken a few knocks around my boat and still looked great. I was concerned at first because it felt brittle/fragile, but it has proven to be durable, withstanding even light mist. It has become a little quieter today as a result of the rain, but I'll dry it out and replace the batteries. I'm fairly certain it was just low batteries after six months of use. The carrying strap is also extremely useful. The only complaint I have is that the siren feature is a little too close to the "talk" switch, which has resulted in a few loud surprises.
This was purchased to help my daughter get ready for school in the morning. She stays up late and sets her alarm very low, so I have to go upstairs several times to try to wake her up. I only have to go once to wake her up with this megaphone. If I turn the volume all the way up and speak into the microphone, my daughter is startled awake almost instantly; she does not fall back to sleep because adrenaline and anger prevent her from doing so. She's learned to wake up on her own after about a week of this, usually earlier than she's supposed to, ensuring that I won't come upstairs with this thing. It's a deafening noise.
