Overview of the Resqme Whistle For Life | 03.600 Series
A Signal Rescuers Can Hear
The Resqme Whistle For Life® (03.600 series) is a 120 dB emergency safety whistle that clips to your keys, pack, or go bag. When you are hurt on a trail, stranded on the water, or trapped after a disaster, your voice gives out fast. A whistle keeps signaling with very little effort.
Resqme rates it at 118 to 120 dB and states the blast can carry up to 2 miles, depending on conditions.
Three Chambers, One Blast
Two pea-less side chambers send out different frequencies in multiple directions. The center chamber holds a waterproof pea that adds a sharp staccato sound. Resqme states that rescuers can hear it over howling wind, rushing water, machinery, and emergency vehicles.

Intended Users
Hikers, campers, hunters, skiers, climbers, and boaters carry this whistle to signal for help when they are lost, hurt, or out of cell range. Search and rescue volunteers, law enforcement officers, firefighters, EMS crews, and security guards can keep one on a duty bag or key ring as a backup signal.
Preppers add it to go bags and survival kits. Runners, students, and solo workers such as tow operators and public works crews use it to attract attention and call for help.
If you want a full vehicle emergency setup, pair it with the Resqme Car Escape Tool or the Resqme Resqhammer. If you need a traditional uniform whistle, compare the Hero's Pride Standard Issue Police Whistle 4010.
