Best Whistle out there
I have been a soccer referee for 25 years, I never use anything but a Fox 40 whistle. Why? Loud, dependable, works in all conditions wet, frozen and in the heat.

Now these whistles are attached to all of the familie's PFDs.

Not as good as the Storm Whistle
Bought for kayaking, hiking , and skiing in the woods. Wish I had bought two storm whistles instead.

No bead in this whistle, so it clears and sounds off readily after a swim.
The Mini fox 40 is just as loud, but smaller. I prefer that one. that gets 5 stars

Comments about Fox 40 Safety Whistle:
i bought this to put on my swift water rescue vest. it is a little bulky but does work very well even when wet. i do not store it on the outside of the vest but have it on a lanyard and placed in a pocket to prevent tangles in debris.

Best Uses
Comments about Fox 40 Safety Whistle:
A compact, loud whistle. Sometimes the high tone is hard to hear for those with hearing problems in noisy environments. Years of ear damage from Sirens, Helicopters and Shooting interfear with hearing high tones. Tough to pull out in noisy environments, such as white water, but much better than yelling. I recommend it.

Comments about Fox 40 Safety Whistle:
Smaller than other designs. I don't like a bulky whistle flopping in my face when attached to a PFD. Also I use these for survival whistle in a back pack and on my daughter's key rings for security.
