Coghlan's Bear Bell with Magnetic Silencer

I'm using this for single track trails while riding to alert mostly hikers and other trail users. Not very loud but works well. Let it dangle from my seat post gear bag. Cheers.

bought this for our dog while camping so it would be easyer to hear where he was at. its ok it loud with out being annoyingly loud it matched our dogs shoes well and seems like a quality product. Would buy again for person or dog. The magnet that came with it worked aswell to keep it quiet when not in use.

I got this for my wife almost as a joke but we did use it on a couple of long hikes in the Adirondack Mountains in New York State this summer. I guess it worked, because we were not harassed by any bears! In all seriousness though, bears would just assume stay clear of people, so the experts say that the best way to avoid an encounter is to let them know you are coming. This product certainly makes noise as you move around on a hike, and I believe that it is indeed effective. Be warned though, when you are half way up a high peak, and it's hot, and humid, and the black flies are biting, the incessant sound of Santa's sleigh maybe a little too much to bear (no pun intended). The magnetic silencer mostly works, but it's a little tricky. The metal ball inside the bell has to be right at the bottom of the bell for the magnet to immobilize it completely. Even then, it will break free once in while as you move around. The product performs exactly as well as I expected it to. I think it makes a charming little gift for the outdoors type person. For the price, it's worth it just for the fun of giving it to someone and having a good laugh.

First rate construction. Very well-made. A great value as well, Less than half price of what a local major outdoor establishment is charging…

This is not anything high tech. It simply does the job it is intended for. No issues with silencing it when I wanted to.

Not very loud! I wouldn’t re buy

Love how these attach and how they have a pleasant tingling sound. Just enough to alert animals and bears that I’m coming for my morning walks. I’ve purchased several times.

A bear bell and other safety items were suggested by game and fish because I encountered a bear while hiking. This fits perfect on the front strap of my hiking backpack and it has strong Velcro that keeps it in place. There is a small magnetic piece you can place over the bell that works really well to keep the bell from ringing when not needed. I hope it lets the bears know I am headed their way! Has worked so far.

Mí cachorro se divierte muchísimo el timbre es agradable al oído y no molesta al oído de los perros, después lo vi a mitad de precio pero ha valido la pena

Bought these because a bear has been coming into our yard the last couple of weeks.. Last one was standing on the deck when we took the dog out at night.. He was checking out the BBQ.. So.. Bells on US, and Bells on the Poodle.. and the BBQ us moved from the house.. and so far. we have not seen the bear anywhere! Nice and loud.. the dog doesn't like the sound but he is getting used to it..
