Turner Safety Solutions Motion activated pool alarm May 23, 2010 Author: admin @ 5:52 am I recently gave my friend one of my motion activated pool alarms and I was amazed it how easy it was to install.  Within minutes her pool was safeguarded and she could rest easy knowing if her son, or any child animal or even an adult were to fall into the pool she would instantly know because an alarm inside the house would sound off. I feel like everyone with a pool should have an alarm like this so I am running a special from now until June 2oth.  The motion activated pool will be on sale.  Additionally,  I will be posting video of just how simple the installation is.  Step by step.  You won’t even have to bother with the directions, just watch the video.

Swimming pool safety, motion activated swimming pool alarm March 10, 2010 Author: admin @ 6:08 am Summer is quickly approaching…As we hit the gym & tanning bed and anticipate the coming days on the beach it is important that we take a step back & consider the dangers that unfortunately come along with the lazy days of summer. Of course, by now we all know we should wear sunblock & tan from 8:00am till 10:00am then again from 2:00pm till 5:00pm avoiding the times when the sun’s UV rays are the strongest. But, the type of danger I am personally concerned about is child water safety. We can all do things like make sure our fence is locked if we have a pool & supervise our children or those children who are in care while they in the water. I would like to introduce to you a fairly new product that can help you to secure your pool even when you are not there to supervise…re: your child is in the care of a sitter or your child or another child sneaks into your backyard & falls into the pool. The product I would like to introduce to you is the pool alarm. This product sits on the side of your pool. If a child, adult or animal, falls into the pool, the alarm will sound in your home alerting you. You now know someone or something has fallen in and can get them out. The swimming pool alarm is affordable and can potentially save your child’s life. I can’t imagine not putting one in my pool. Have a great summer and be safe! Safe with my cell phone stun gun at Mardi Gras February 21, 2010 Author: admin @ 5:46 pm Well, Mardi Gras was a blast this year!  The Saints won the superbowl!  Geaux Saints! And, just about everyone was in a great mood!  I stayed at hotel Monteleon in the French Quarter, visited the Carousel Bar in the Hotel and strolled up and down Bourbon like a tourist.  While it was an exceptionally busy Mardi Gras the crime rate was relatively low. Of course, you have a few drunken fella’s that are going to try and pick up on a couple of girls strolling along Bourbon unescorted by males.  It was very funny to watch the expressions on their faces as the sparks flew from the end of my orange pretender cell phone stun gun  to let the guys know that I really didn’t need them to escort me. Yes, I felt very safe at Mardi Gras with my cell phone stun gun.  It was quite an attention getter as well.  There was even a commercial during the Superbowl featuring an old guy stunning a young guy on his neck at the bank & taking his Dorito’s. Stun guns seem to be gaining popularity as they prove to be an effective, non lethal self defense weapon.  Next time I will have someone tape me when I send them running back to mommy. Welcome to Mymacespace Blog January 18, 2010 Author: admin @ 7:27 am As owner of mymacespace & narrator of this blog, I would like to introduce myself & thank you for visiting.  I encourage feedback and will answer all questions concerning personal self defense products in a timely fashion. Please feel free to post your relevant comments, recommendations & suggestions. This month I would like to share with you my recent article on stun guns or tasers explaining how they work and the differences in each as well as the different types available to you.  Enjoy! Stun guns and tasers are both effective in providing protection for you and your family. There are various size’s and styles of stun guns. There are batons, cell phone stun guns, stun master guns, just to name a few. You can purchase these devices offering various degrees of voltage ranging anywhere from 50,000 to 950,000 volts. The stun gun works by discharging this voltage from two electrodes protruding from the end of the device. When the trigger is pulled while touching the assailant high voltage and low amperage go from the electrodes through the assailants clothes and into his body. The pulsed current causes the assailants muscle’s to rapidly constrict go through a superfast refractory period then constrict over and over, thus depleting him of his glucose. The entire process takes only seconds and is extremely painful. If the stun gun is held on the assailant after he falls, the muscles will cramp up temporarily leaving him disabled. At this time you can get away and call the police. The taser on the other hand is a hand held device which shoots darts into the assailants skin. This keeps you at a safe distance from the assailant. In police studies, the TASER C2 has a higher instant incapacitation rate than a 9mm hand gun. These units can be purchased with an optional laser light. They can reach an assailant up to 15 feet away. They work on the same principle as the stun gun effecting the central nervous system but, sends a more powerful punch. They are more significantly more expensive and there are also more laws regulating there use. Before firing the taser it must first be registered. Registration instructions are provided with each unit. There are different types to choose from. There are fewer styles to choose from but, many different colors and even accessories such as a holster with a built in MP3 player are available. I hope you found this information useful.
