I want to put this on my fence gate on the side of the house and want to be able to hear it 75 feet away on my back porch. Is it loud enough to be hea

I put it on a fence gate and it rings, but it is not super loud. I don't know if it can be heard 75 ` away.

I put mine on my back gate(6') fence, & I can hear it from the front walk appx. 100 feet away- it is a clear tone

Mine didn't ring accurately. It would properly ring 2/3 of the time. When it did jingle, it was fairly faint. I'm not sure it would work well outdoors.

I suppose it depends somewhat on the level of background noise and your hearing. We purchased one for use in the play "Little Shop of Horrors" as the flower shop door bell. It was loud enough to be heard in a 300 seat theater, over the noise from the audience, light dimmers, A/C, etc. The tone is perfect; just exactly what a shop bell should sound like. The bell is quite loud and the bracket is truly springy so any movement activates the bell. I would say to get one, have someone ring it at the gate while you listen, and if it doesn't work out, return it in new condition. It's very inexpensive for the great quality.

We have two of these at our place of business on entry doors. They are only about 30 ft away and I hear them very well (lol, almost too well) my husband says that at 75ft away and being outside you may not hear them well due to outdoor noises and such. The bell is not obnoxious like say a string of the larger round Christmas bells, It's more of a true shopkeepers bell. Hope that helps!!

Probably not. We use ours on our beer fridge at work so we can tell when someone opens it, but based on the size of our shop and bell volume, you'd never hear it 75 feet away.

No, it isn't that loud, however if you want to set it off in your home or in an indoor environment be careful, keep it at least 3 feet away from you and you should be fine. I have had one blow up right atmy feet about two feet away from me while crouching down during an airsoft match, I only got startled, my ears were not damaged. But just to be safe keep it at a distance.

I have found it loud enough while out on the beach. Even playing football or out in the water a ways away you can here the music. I suppose it depends how loud your work area is. If it evolves loud machinery I really do not think any speaker this size is going to work. We have also used it for house parties and it has worked just fine even over all the talking and the television with the game on. I personally love it for what it is, a small portable speaker.

Quite loud. Well it depends how close you are to your neighbors, but if you leave in a house I don't think it will wake them up.

I Would Say So. I Have It Set Up In My Living Room. If I Crank It Up I Can Easily Hear It Through Out My House Which Is 1300Sqft. Just Get A Good Set Of Speakers.

Not sure. It's loud enough that I fear my neighbors in my building will complain. But it's not a going power a huge lawn party. It's loud enough for a loud apartment party. It's a boom box on steroids.

Not loud. You have to be within a few feet to hear it. If you install it on a different floor or in a location you don't frequent you probably will not hear it. Look elsewhere.

We use ours in an outside bar and it is plenty loud enough. Not sure if you are wanting to use this just to play a song / songs during the ceremony (which should be fine) or wanting to use it for the reception party (def will not be sufficient). If just wanting to play some background music or a special song during the ceremony it should be fine.

It is only loud if you play a higher pitch chime sound but not any louder than most other doorbells. If want to play audio or music it will not resolve your issue.

My is mounted on the inside of the door and it is certainly loud enough to here throughout the house. It produces a good sound. It would depend on how soundproof your door is.

If you plan on just on using for checking neighborhood noise then it should be fine. If you want to keep it toclose tolerances then you might want to think about getting a sound Gen. But for gen. around the house use No.RavenNote: Sorry for the delay, been busy.

45 feet away.... they will be able to hear it but I don't think it will be too bad. It's probably about 60-70 decibels when you are standing right by it as it does its job, and that is the level of a normal voice conversation when heard from 3 feet away. Just depends on the neighbors' tolerance level; everyone is different. After a while, it recedes into the background and you don't notice it as much -- at least I don't. When it fries a big one, sometimes it remains on the grid until it is literally burned away and there is this electric sizzling sound for several seconds. I wouldn't put it right outside my bedroom window, but I would put it in my yard if they are 45 feet away. They'll get used to it. 45 feet away.... they will be able to hear it but I don't think it will be too bad.

It's actually louder than I would like. Of course depending on it's proximity to you, I think you could definitely use it for white noise.

I believe so. We have it mounted on a jail transport van, and it is loud enough to warn pedestrians, but not so loud to wake up the neighborhood at night.

It is definately loud, and it WILL rattle stuff on your desk if you turn the bass up. you'll be satisfied unless you own one of those cars with the bass that vibrates peoples houses a mile away, in that case it might not have enough base.

(I have used this for years and I love it.) RE: noise factor, it seems like it could be loud enough on the higher 2 settings. Frankly, I haven't asked my neighbors!!

I would say barely. It won't sound like a booming sound system, more like a nice radio. It's less powerful when you pull out the plug. Ok for a picnic, less good for a party.
