AmpliVox Safety Wand Megaphone Combines Essential Crowd Control Functions in Single Unit

NORTHBROOK, Ill. - April 16, 2014 - PRLog -- Safe traffic direction is a complicated operation, requiring quick, clear communication between the traffic officer and masses of people in motion. To improve the efficiency and safety of that process, AmpliVox Sound Systems proudly introduces the innovative Safety Wand Megaphone, an all-in-one traffic control baton with a built-in megaphone function.

The AmpliVox S606 Safety Wand Megaphone offers a unique combination of features for optimal traffic control and communication. A detachable 20-watt Piezo microphone connects to the wand’s handle via a 5’ coil cord. The baton’s handle includes sealed control buttons for four modes: voice amplification, alert whistle, red flare light, and white flashlight. A rotary volume control on the side of the handle adjusts the megaphone’s volume level with a whistle function as loud as 105 decibels. The wand includes five ultra-bright red LEDs for a continuous or flashing flare and a white LED flashlight at the tip of the wand, delivering visibility of 3,000 yards with a 100,000 hour lamp life. Other features include a rechargeable battery pack, chargers for wall AC outlets or car cigarette lighters, and a wrist safety strap.

AmpliVox’s S606 Safety Wand enhances safety for police officers, fire departments, emergency medical technicians, and other first responders. Its lightweight, durable, and water-resistant design is also an excellent choice for parking attendants and security officers at sporting events, concert venues, and other settings where crowd control is a top priority.

“Our new Safety Wand Megaphone is a great innovation for traffic control officers,” noted Don Roth, AmpliVox CEO.  “It literally puts clear sound amplification in the palm of their hands, combining great audio communication with enhanced visibility. This will be a game changing product for anyone responsible for traffic or crowd management.”
