With so many of us working from home, its more important than ever to keep an eye on your children near your pool, your neighbors pool or the community pool. Last year, Local 4 tested out the Safety Turtle, which we found at a local pool store. We found the Safety Turtle took a few minutes to sound the alarm. The Pooleye Pool Alarm can be set up on the side of your pool, the stairs, or a railing. When set on the low setting it look a while for the alarm to sound, when turned up it sensed movement quickly.
