What Is the Byrna Banshee?

The Byrna Banshee is a compact personal safety alarm designed to produce a powerful audible siren when activated. Rather than relying on a projectile or chemical irritant, the Banshee uses sound to attract attention and alert people nearby.

Its compact design makes it easy to incorporate into everyday carry without the size or operation of a larger personal-protection device.

Byrna Banshee 130 dB Personal Alarm

The Byrna Banshee produces a loud 130 dB alarm designed to draw attention when activated. A high-output personal alarm can be useful when someone wants to quickly create a noticeable audible alert during an uncomfortable or potentially dangerous situation.

Because it is an audible safety device, the Banshee provides a different approach to personal safety than pepper spray, chemical-irritant products or less-lethal launchers.

Compact Personal Safety Alarm for Everyday Carry

A personal alarm is most useful when it is accessible. The compact size of the Byrna Banshee allows it to be incorporated into everyday routines and carried with commonly used personal items.

Depending on individual needs, a portable safety alarm can be useful for:

• Walking and commuting
• Running and outdoor activities
• College and campus environments
• Parking lots and garages
• Travel
• Work and late-night schedules
• Everyday personal safety
• Keeping an audible emergency alert within reach

Personal Safety Alarm for Women, Students & Travelers

Portable personal alarms are often considered by people who want a compact safety device that can be carried without requiring the operation of a launcher or chemical spray.

The Byrna Banshee can be an option for women, college students, travelers, runners, commuters, seniors and other users who want a loud audible alarm available as part of their everyday safety equipment.

How Does a Personal Safety Alarm Help?

A personal safety alarm is designed to create a sudden, noticeable sound that can attract attention to the user and surrounding situation.

Unlike a less-lethal launcher, a personal alarm does not launch a projectile. Unlike pepper spray, it does not release a chemical irritant. Its primary function is to produce an audible alert.

Byrna Banshee vs Pepper Spray

The Byrna Banshee and pepper spray serve different purposes. Pepper spray is designed to deploy a chemical irritant, while the Banshee is an audible personal alarm.

Some customers may prefer an audible alarm because of its simplicity and portability, while others may choose different personal-protection equipment depending on their circumstances and applicable laws.

Byrna Banshee vs a Byrna Launcher

The Byrna Banshee should not be confused with a Byrna launcher. Byrna launchers are CO2-powered less-lethal projectile platforms, while the Banshee is a compact audible safety alarm.

Customers looking for projectile-based less-lethal personal-protection options can compare current models in our Byrna Launchers collection.

Personal Alarm as Part of an Everyday Safety Plan

Personal safety equipment can serve different purposes. An audible alarm is designed primarily to attract attention, while other equipment may be intended for illumination, communication or other personal-protection needs.

Customers should choose equipment based on their environment, comfort level, intended use and applicable laws or regulations.
