Review: Fith Safety Alarm - Works as described, several ways to rig it. Depends what result you are looking for But with thought you can rig it several ways. Always us blank cartridges NEVER USE A HUNTING CARTRIDGE.
Review: As advertised - Very good quality

## Features

- USA INVENTED & MADE: Fith Ops is the original inventor of the perimeter trip alarm. We came up with the look, feel and design. Any other devices you see that have our exact look are counterfeit products. We are the original company operating in Idaho.
- BUILT TO LAST: We put quality above all else. We vigorously test our trip alarms on the hardest primers, so we know it will work with any type of blank you have. Our springs are very high quality and will not hold a memory, even after years of use (the same can’t be said with the counterfeit versions).
- LOW-TECH: Our trip alarms are fully off-grid. You can use it as a sound alarm system to keep intruders or dangerous animals away from your home, garden, campsite, etc. without having to rely on wifi or power.
- COMPACT: Being able to fit multiple in the palm of your hand, the compact size is perfect to take along while camping, hiking, hunting, etc.
- FLEXIBILITY: It works with non-lethal 12G blanks, but will also work with 209 primers, .22s, or 308 blanks with the corresponding adapters. Additionally we make a digital adapter, for cases where you are not allowed to have blanks in your area.
- NOTICES: Do not use live ammo. It is designed to work only with non-lethal blanks. Keep away from flammable objects. Always mount low to the ground and always point down. If you use in rain or snow, you must lube the spring with gun oil or some other type of waterproof salient. If not, the spring will rust.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this fire a 12 ga Orion flare into the air?**
A: Actually the orion flare will go up in the air because the orion flare (this one - https://www.amazon.com/Orion-Safety-Areial-Flare-Refill/dp/B07S6DVGFM/ref=sr_1_2 ) is constructed in such a way that it has its own "barrel" and hence can concentrate some pressure (its a very short plastic barrel,  but its "shooting" a light "projectile" a short distance - and its specifically designed for that - so the marine flare can go up in the air and been seen from miles away.
These tripwiredevices are designed to "shoot" low pressure shotgun rds like flares and blanks (aka flash bangs) but NOT designed to shoot actual shotgun ammunition.   If you try that, you will be disappointed as the other posters are saying.

**Q: I am looking for something that I can use under my car .so it would be getting wet a lot so would this work ?**
A: The blank shells may be waterproof, but I wouldn't put an explosive device under a car anyway. And what's the use? the "bang" would happen after the car has started (so it's gone). It would be just a noisy bye bye. You need a car alarm.

**Q: Do you have the adapter to use nail gun promers yet?**
A: Shotgun shell primers are just as loud, you can pop them out with either a primer remover lever machine, or a punch and a hammer over a hole in a block of wood or between a vice. I almost think you could simply use a 12ga shell and drill the primer hole out big enough to fit a .22 nail gun round in it if you feel like going through the work to make the adapter yourself. You may even just be able to find a stainless steel washer that should fit a .22 and slide right into the unit.

**Q: Can this device be....adjusted...to ignite cannon fuse?**
A: Either with alot of modification and extra components or by jerry rigging the fuse in front of the blank and hoping it ignites the fuse.

In short, not recommended.   Probably easier to set up a strike plate system to ignite the fuse from scratch.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works perfect
*by S***R on October 30, 2025*

We live in the pigeon forge Tennessee area and have a lot of bears in our area and they work great for keeping them from climbing on our deck. I ordered one a few weeks ago to see how well they work and just ordered 2 more. They are easy to set up. I use 12 gauge bird shot that I cut a hole in the end and dump the shot out to make a blank and it works perfect..
