A Local Company, Gadgets For Safety Shows Concern For One of Arizona's Most Serious Problems, Child Drowning, With the Introduction of the "Voice Alert System 6""

Scottsdale, AZ (PRWEB) April 25, 2006-- Each year in Arizona, drowning is one of the leading causes of death for children under four. Most often this tragedy occurs in a child's own pool. Arizona is a wonderland for outdoor recreation throughout the year. It's also well known for being consistently above the national average for drowning deaths. Water safety is serious business. Following a few simple rules can keep your outdoor activities fun, and your friends and family safe for many summers to come.

Drowning Facts:
Approximately 350 children under age 5 drown in pools nationwide every year, and 2,600 are treated in ER's for near-drowning (source: Consumer Product Safety Commission). 75% of drowning victims are age 1-3 (source: Consumer Prodct Safety Comm). 75% of victims were missing from sight 5 minutes or less (source: Consumer Product Sfty Comm). 85% of drownings in Maricopa County occurred in swimming pools (source: AZ Department of Health Svcs). In Maricopa County in 2000, drowning was the leading cause of accidental death among children age 1-4 (source: AZ Dept of Health Statistics).

Gadgets For Safety welcomes the opportunity to help address this potential problem by introducing the "Voice Alert System 6". "Having grandchildren of my own, I would be crushed to have one of them fall into the pool, let alone drown, while being unsupervised" stated Francine Elliott, CEO of Gadgets For Safety, "I was very happy to include this item into our product family". She further stated "Children around water should be every parent/adult's number one concern. There can't be any mistakes."

Voice Alert System-6 is a new enunciator system featuring wireless PIR sensors transmitters and a remote receiver/speaker base unit. Users record their own alert messages and are then notified with their own voice message when activity in a monitored is detected. Key applications include: Wireless Driveway Alarm, Residential and Small Business Security, and Home Automation
System-6 allows a maximum of six user recorded messages.

Each message is specific to one zone. For instance, zone one could be for a driveway alarm -"Car coming up the driveway" while zone two could be for a sensor monitoring the back yard- "Alert! Child by the pool!" Perhaps a third sensor guards a side entrance against intruders.

However, when this PIR detects movement, the base unit plays "Intruder on patio" and triggers a floodlight using one of four relays included on the base unit. System-6 can monitor all three zones simultaneously and still have three additional zones available when needed. Users can alter their messages and place the wireless sensors wherever they wish.

Voice Alert System-6 sets up in minutes and can be completely customized to fit their individual needs. The wireless PIRs feature: all weather protection, adjustable mounting and sensitivity, and can send a signal 300 feet through walls and up to 1000 feet in open space.

"We here at Gadgets For Safety hope that if this product can save just one child, we would be glad to have played play a part," added Ms Elliott.

About Gadgets For Safety:
Gadgets For Safety is wholly owned and operated by Elliott Unique Designs of Scottsdale, Arizona.

Our decision to branch out into the Safety Gadgets marketplace was inspired in part by family members several of which are in the law enforcement field. Over the years they have observed the lack of preparation the average person takes to avoid becoming a victim of violent crime. We decided to take measures to ensure our homes and business were more secure, and in this search discovered the many products available for this exact purpose. These products are not always easy to find on the open market, so we decided to open up this store on the Web to serve that purpose. Please come and visit us at: http://gadgetsforsafety.com
