Product Description
As the Rescue Chief of 'the world's most experienced rescue and disaster mitigation organization', I am writing this document as an unequivocal endorsement of Quake Alarm.
It is the only earthquake-warning device, which we endorse. It works. I personally endorse this device because it is simple, effective, practical, inexpensive and most importantly it works. This device has alerted and saved lives in Turkey India and Mexico. I consider this device to deliver the same level of protection and confidence in shielding people, from death and injury, due to earthquakes; as Smoke Detectors provide for fires.
If you live in a seismically active area, it is cavalier and risky behavior not to have one of these devices in your office and your home.
I use it to protect my family. You should too.

TheQuake Alarm™ is designed to provide instant warning of
seismic activity by detecting the “P” wave (compression
wave) of an earthquake, which travels faster than the more
destructive “S” wave (shear wave). The Quake
Alarm™
saves valuable seconds by removing the
guesswork in earthquake detection. It is capable of detecting
large earthquakes that occur hundreds of miles away and can
detect moderate to minor earthquakes for many miles around your
local area. One very important advantage of the Quake
Alarm™ is that it can wake you up and alert you
the moment the quake starts so that you can immediately take
cover or tend to other family members. The human mind relies upon
the sensations from the inner ear combined with the sense of
sight to determine the sensation of motion the body is undergoing
at the time that an earthquake starts. Disorientation, known as
vertigo, can cause people to become confused and instinctively
freeze for many seconds during the onset of an earthquake. Sound
also plays a part in earthquake detection and by itself can be
misleading. The sound of a slamming garage door or the low rumble
of a large truck has startled many people into falsely thinking
that they are about to experience an earthquake. The Quake
Alarm™can eliminate confusion, save valuable
seconds and provide peace of mind.Designed and tested for: Homes, Offices and School Classrooms
Provides early warning by detecting an earthquake's sound wave before the earthquake's destructive shear wave strikes your area.
When time counts, be informed and prepared with the Quake Alarm
