TL;DR: Stay safe while you’re out alone with the Care Go™ Personal Alarm, on sale for $16 off. As of April 29, use code ALARM16 at checkout to get one for $33.99.
Successfully funded on Kickstarter at over $200K, the Alphahom Care Go is a small personal alarm you can carry in your pocket or attach to your bag and use to warn your loved ones or caretakers that you’re in trouble.
Connect it to your phone via Bluetooth and add protectors with the companion app. When you’re out on a run, walking home from the store, or going out a Tinder date, a simple twist will activate the Care Go’s Follow Me mode. This alerts those you list as “protectors” of your whereabouts so they can keep an eye on you. Even if their phones are on silent, they’ll get a sound notification.
If you’re in an emergency situation, pull the Care Go to activate SOS mode. A more dramatic alarm will ring your protectors’ phones and let them know your exact location, so they can offer help ASAP.
The Care Go is only about 2.5 inches tall and weighs just .45 ounces, so it can easily be attached to your keys or fit in your wallet. If somehow you lose track of it, the built-in Finder mode can help you locate it.
A single one-hour charge gives you an entire year’s worth of battery power, so it’s super low maintenance. All you have to do is remember to bring it with you.
It’s regularly $49.99, but you can use the coupon code ALARM16 at checkout to slash the cost down to just $33.99 for a limited time.
