OP here... I ordered two from Amazon, they devices came quickly with free prime shipping. DC just went on a "walkabout" with the "she's birdie". We clipped it to their backpack. The device is thinner than I expected, but it is long. However, you want it accessible and easy to pull apart in an emergency, so that is a good thing. We tested it before DC left and it's loud. If they were in the woods anywhere near the neighborhood and we were outside we could definitely hear it! The sound would certainly draw attention to any situation and anyone wishing to cause harm would probably be surprised for at least a minute or two. We will definitely use them!
We got ours today too! I think the sound and light intensity are perfect. Its very loud, but not deafening. The actual birdie is a good size, however the clip its on is very bulky. I guess that is good so you can locate it, but I will probably look for a lanyard or something else to carry it with.

I have this 6 pack for $18. They are super loud and ear piercing.

I'm going to order these. I really worry about DD3 walking home from the bus stop (assuming COVID ever goes away and we let her ride the bus again someday). She's a selective mute and would never yell to ward off an attacker or stranger, but she might be willing to pull the pin.
