These whistles are minute but they are pretty loud, akin to one of those whistles incorporated into a rucksack buckle. If you don't have one now - get one, and give the other two away.
OMM says:
ESSENTIAL SAFETY KIT ON THE HILL.
An essential piece of emergency kit and on every race mandatory kit lists. The international distress signal is sets of 6 blasts repeated at 1 minute intervals the recognised reply is 3 blasts. Keep repeating the 6 blasts this will help your rescuers find you. It may take some time for help to reach you keep up your 6 blasts until help is in sight and has confirmed your location.
Our Verdict
OMM's Mini Whistles are minute but they are pretty loud, akin to one of those whistles incorporated into a rucksack buckle. Not sure why they are in a three pack, but they are so small you are probably going to lose them - good thinking OMM.
If you don't have a whistle now - get one, and give the other two away.
