Pull-String Perimeter Alarms - 72-Pack

Works just they did in SOG missions. Used them on a constant basis.

they are very loud there are some duds thought. Very good for pranking

There was 2 duds in my box and a very funny when u use them on friends im gonna buy more.

Just received these in the mail, and am very satisfied. They are tiny, but have a loud report. Definitely a good deal at this price.

I'm not commenting about the pull string alarms I purchased, but about BUDK's service. When my package arrived the top was open,and alarms gone. I contacted BUDK and they sent me another entire order, now that's a good service dept.

Pretty loud. I've had caps that were much louder. Decent for the price though. Gonna try a few tricks on unsuspecting people!!

A great way to find out when your kids come home late. Just tape to the door and wait, it will wake you up from the couch.

Fun,loud,cheap.

These work great, easy to use.Put one on a pistol(unloaded)and told the kid from next door not to touch it, his dad and I went into next room--yep--Bang.He droped it and wet his pants. Lesson learned.

They great for scaring people i wish the string was longer but its ok they are still awesome.

I love setting these all over the house and listening to my family's reactions. Great for security and pranks.

i haven't bought these from this website, but i HAVE purchased these elsewhere and believe me, they are a GREAT buy! they actually are good for fun perimeter alarms (probably would shake up your mom more than a burglar though) and causing general mischief around the home, i strongly recommend them :)

Although you cant just tape them to doors, they are fairly loud, I pout a nail in my bathroom door and on the wall and while my wife was in the shower I tied one on and when she came out, BANG, it made me jump from all the way across our house, I'd like to know how she'd felt. Thanx BUDK!

VERY loud noise. I am an ex marine sniper and my rifle was as loud as this! Just don't hold it your hand and THEN pull the string-I learned that the hard way. Almost blew my hand off.

These thing are a GREAT price for their size, amount, and loudness. I got 5 packs to give to my friends but I wanted to keep all of them. They are pretty loud for their size. (which is like super tiny)

Great for airsoft and paintball, as well as home security. Loud enough to wake up light sleepers, and it will scare away anyone trying to break in. They work better if you put a few together however.

these little buggers may be small but they make a big noise.... if you are gonna be using them as an alarm system a handful of thumbtacks and a roll of fishing line are a must. doors, windows, hallways, pathways, and other items are prime targets for these little noise makers.

I like these firecrackers and will buy more. They have some duds and if you don't pull swift and fast they won't work, and they don't sound like one you would light. But i like them overall.

First off, despite the lack of quality in this product, I love BudK. I've bought a lot of stuff from here and all of it has been good until this one. I have tried only four of the ones I bought. Three failed. That is an unacceptable failure rate for anything other than maybe a toy, so I'm giving these to my boys to have fun with, hopefully they'll get more of them to pop. Bottom line: don't buy these for any serious purpose. I've read one review where a majority of these worked and it makes me wonder. In any case, while I am disappointed with this, I still recommend BudK, and I will be sure to read reviews of items before purchasing them.

Loud enough to wake you up. Great for setting trip wire around the tent when camping in bear country or elsewhere.

Had about 8/72 duds in my batch. I thought it was reasonable as there was no guarantee to no duds. Loved pranking my friends with these!

I'm not sure about the bad reveiws . But I have purchased these and have been having a ball with these ! 98 percent of these are on the money. Nothing is 100 percent. That being said i would not risk my life with a 14 cent novelty for an alarm in a SHTF situation , but I would still use it as one way to have an alarm for other fun things!! All in All Bud-K is a great co. and stands behind all thier stuff 100 percent in my opintion and will be getting more of these because I'm running out LOL

would not bet my life on these but they are a h**l of a lot of fun

Put two or three together and set it up on a trail, it gives a nice pop. I use these poppers for night training in countries overseas.

Decent little alarms. I wouldn't bet my life on them, but they're better than nothing, and a fantastic prank tool.

Bought for setting a perimeter alarm and it worked just fine. Also so works for scaring the jeepers out of someone too. Will be getting more in the future.

These suckers are loud and effective for the price. A few dudes in each box which isn't ideal for a reliable perimeter alarm. I would only buy these again with the buy 1 get 1 free promotions.

These are a lot of fun. I found that if the strings break put the popper on a hard surface and hit it with a hammer. Always where safety glasses. Talk about loud !

When I got these I thought they'd be a lot louder and a little bit bigger. However I was somewhat disappointed to find out that all they really are is Chinese fireworks with a pull string. They do work, but I would not trust them to wake up the most sound sleeper. Otherwise it is still pretty decent for 5 dollars.

I bought 2 of these...so 144 pull string alarms total. First of all, when I got them they were ALOT smaller than I expected and the noise isn't that loud....its somewhat loud but not nearly as loud as I expected it to be....but on the other hand they are very concealable and if u rig 5 together than they can make a great prank...and they are also extremely cheap so you cant really go wrong...still a good buy.

Hilarious. You can really annoy someone with these.

A lot smaller than I expected but still loud enough for indoors. Easy to tape up to doors and such, and for 72 for 4.99 I can't complain!

This was an O-K product, they really werent that loud and half of them were duds, but still for the ones that did work they are a blast for a prankster! (would not recommend for Home Security)

I bought these with a bunch of other stuff, but they are hard to activate. The string always breaks before it actually activate, 5 out of about 7 times they broke. Budk was nice though and sent me another pack, but I have not tested them yet...

Ordered 72 (6 boxes of 12) delivered in a timely manner. Opened one box and tried all 12. Only 2 went off, one with the noise of a cap gun the other was a dud and only fizzled. On all the string was rotten and pulled apart, had to use a pliers to pull the stubs left to get them to go off. Applied fire to the remaining that failed and of those 10 only 3 had any powder at all in them. Typical chinese made garbage.

I GOT THIS BECAUSE MY FRIEND RECOMENDED IT TO ME SO I GOT IT BUT ONLY 1 OF 8 WORKS!!!!!!!!!WASTE OF MY $!!!!!!!!!

I bought 72 of these which only about 12 worked. The ones that that worked where loud but the failure rate is not reliable! I would NOT trust these to be any alarm. They are fun when they work but I wasted my money on these. At least it wasn't that much money.

It was a total waste of money. Almost all tested were inert. Out of two whole boxes, I only had two string that worked. NOT RELIABLE AT ALL! At 5 bucks, it not worth the postage to return for an exchange. I AM NOT HAPPY WITH THESE AT ALL....

i bought these and i know they are made in china but really bud k out of 1 box of 12 i had 2 that worked the string broke or they failed to go off 10 our of 12 times. I was planning on keeping these in my bug out bag as a low cost alarm in SHTF but i wouldn't trust these to alert me if a mouse broke wind in my direction because the string would more then likely break. Total waste of my money glad i didn't order more like i was going to do.

If you're reading this and thinking about buying these, don't. I tried all 72 of them, and every single one of them was either a dud, or the string broke. All of them. This is possibly the worst product on BudK (other than their knife sharpeners) I've been nothing but disappointed with their products. Will not be buying from here again.
