PylePyle Portable Megaphone Bullhorn Speaker - 50W, 1200 Yard Range, Built-in Siren, Adjustable Volume Control and Microphone, Perfect for Outdoor Sports, Cheerleading, Safety Drills, and More

You perhaps don't need to spend $1,500 on a new burglar alarm system. Buy this very loud bull horn for your home security needs. Most people don't turn on their burglar alarms half the time anyway. Use this horn when you hear something suspicious. It has a police siren option on the slide switch that is super loud and can be heard half a mile away. That will scare away any burglar or intruder. You also can prepare an audio file on your computer sound recorder and download it to a small thumb drive (USB drive) which you plug into the back of the megaphone. Then when you turn it on whatever was recorded on the thumb drive plays through the megaphone, i.e., music, the sound of gun shots, your pre-recorded warning in your own voice or someone else's voice, etc. The megaphone is loud. Install eight good alkaline c-cell batteries in the unit and forget about it for seven years, or the life of these batteries. Then you'll always have this home security device ready for whatever occasion confronts you. If you know someone who lives by themself then this device, set to play the police siren, will be a very good defensive security tool in lieu of a lethal weapon.I'm sure this device works very well for sporting events and for boating use. The microphone can be attached to the back of the megaphone and it comes with a carrying strap. I certainly like the one I bought.

This works great! Replacing my ANCIENT bullhorn, and this one has some crazy features! It's nice and loud, has the strap, the hand unit, USB, and feels like a quality build. I'll use this for a lot of events, but we actually used it the first time for a kind of public prank around Thanksgiving where we had two full grown men in turkey suits, using this to gobble and refer people to eating more beef. It was incredible. This megaphone put on a nice finishing touch!Pros:LoudQualityHand UnitStrap for shoulder (couples well with the hand unit)USBSirenCons:None!

This product is a must have! It's very cheap yet effective! I tested this and I can be heard from very far away! Messing with people with this product could not be easier! Now I can yell at that soccer mom that cuts me off! Or whatever! The fact is if you want to be heard, over everyone else, and you're poor like me, get this product. Lets suppose you're rich, get 10 of these because they surpass all other megaphones! Buy with confidence!

Works great but doesn't last. I am on my third one of these bullhorns in as many months. It's lightweight, very loud, and easy to use, and I use it 4 days a week at my job. But it does not hold up under normal use. The cable connecting the detachable microphone to the unit works its way loose, causing intermittent interruptions in the sound depending on how you hold the microphone. And the speaker itself, while loud, is too "delicate" and prone to distortions and "blowing out" (for lack of a better word... I'm not a sound tech person so I don't know what the actual term is). Normally use for me is voice only, I don't even use the MP3 feature. Perhaps the trade-off of being lightweight is being cheaply made and flimsy. this is my first experience with a Pyle product and probably my last. My impression of Pyle was that they made quality products, and I tried this bullhorn to replace an inexpensive off-brand version simply to get the increased volume and lighter weight, but I'm thinking now I'll go back to the cheaper but more durable unit from Harbor Freight.

I bought this for a picket/rally that's next to a major corridor that has a lot of vehicles going by, and what attracted me is how loud this can get, 50 watts is loud for any event where you need to carry your voice. It's also nice to have an audio jack to attach a device to play music too.Pros:Light in weight, even with eight C batteries.Adjustable volume, you'll really project your voice with this.Option of trigger on handle to activate microphone, or detach microphone and push to talk on side of microphone or use locking mechanism to keep microphone on.Includes a shoulder strap.Cons:When releasing finger from trigger or removeable microphone, the microphone is still running hot for a couple of seconds, rather than shutting off immediately.If you use the detachable microphone, be careful not to put it too close to the front of the megaphone, otherwise a loud feedback sound will happen.There's a rubber gasket band on the battery door, be careful it doesn't fall off when open and shutting the door.The battery insertion instructions on the device is confusing. Instead, pull out the plastic sleeve inside the battery chamber, and follow the instructions on the sleeve to insert the C batteries into the sleeve.Eight C batteries can get costly, but it's the necessary battery power to operate such a loud device. To prevent leakage and damage to your device, remove them when not in use.

I have used this bullhorn now several times. It works great, and it's only not been loud enough at extremely loud rallies, but part of that could have been misuse of the mic. The only other drawback is having to buy all of these batteries. They're expensive, but I haven't gone through the first batch yet, so that's good. Overall, for the price, my "meggerphone" (as I call it affectionately), is amazing. Plus itt was on the cover of the US section of the New York Times at a rally I helped organize!
