New Halo Tracker Adds 130-Decibel Siren for Safety

A new tracker proves that safety tech doesn't have to choose between finding your stuff and protecting your life.

Pebblebee's Halo tracker launched today for $59.99, combining everyday item tracking with personal safety features that activate in emergencies. The device works with Apple's Find My network or Google's Find My Device to locate lost items, but its real innovation lies in what happens when you pull it apart.

Triggering the alarm sets off a 130-decibel siren alongside a blinding 150-lumen strobe light. That's louder than a rock concert and bright enough to attract attention from blocks away, giving people in danger both a deterrent and a distress signal.

The device automatically sends an SMS message to a trusted contact when activated, sharing your exact location through Pebblebee's free Safety Circle feature. No subscription required, no monthly fees, just instant help when you need it most.

At roughly the size of two AA batteries, the Halo is larger than an AirTag but packs a rechargeable battery that lasts up to a year. It also includes a built-in flashlight for everyday use, making it practical for daily life beyond emergencies.

Why This Inspires

Personal safety devices have traditionally been single-purpose gadgets that sit unused in purses and drawers. The Halo changes that equation by serving as something people actually use every day to find their keys or backpack, which means they'll actually have it when an emergency strikes.

The device represents a growing trend of tech companies building safety features into products people already carry. By making protection accessible and affordable at under $60, Pebblebee is putting peace of mind within reach for college students, night shift workers, and anyone who wants an extra layer of security.

The Halo becomes available on Amazon April 20th, giving more people access to a device that could make the difference between a scary situation and a safe outcome.

Sometimes the best innovations don't reinvent the wheel but simply make sure you have the tools you need when it matters most.
