Want to be heard by a large group of people?
Then the megaphone is an excellent solution!
How does a megaphone work?
Megaphones are useful tools for amplifying the voice. This way you can be understood by a large group of people in indoor and outdoor spaces. The megaphone is a portable amplifier with a loudspeaker and microphone. This compact device works on batteries, a rechargeable battery or 12V, so you can easily take the megaphone with you. This way you can use the megaphone anywhere and make yourself understood.
You can choose between a megaphone with an integrated microphone or megaphones with a separate microphone. The models with an integrated microphone are generally lightweight, very handy and cheaper. With the models with a separate microphone, you do not have to hold the megaphone yourself. You only operate the microphone. Hang the megaphone around your shoulder or put the megaphone down so that it can function as a loudspeaker. You can talk for longer without extra effort and strain. Very pleasant and comfortable. With an extra wireless microphone, you can use the megaphone together with someone else, cordlessly. Handy if you need more freedom of movement or want to have your hands free when explaining a presentation.
Can be used in many situations
Megaphones are used in many situations. For example, at sports matches, events, and demonstrations. Because the megaphone is portable and has a large range, you can be heard well. Even in a busy area or along the road with a lot of traffic.
Megaphones are also a good tool for the emergency response team. In the event of calamities and evacuations, it is important to be able to act quickly. Instructions and directions should be clear and easy to understand. Especially when every second counts in an emergency! This way, bystanders can immediately follow the instructions and the evacuation and evacuation will proceed safely.
Want to get immediate attention? Most megaphones also have a siren function so you can immediately attract the attention of the audience.

Tips for buying a megaphone
Reach
Megaphones with a higher wattage carry the sound further. For larger events, outdoor spaces and business parks, there are megaphones that can have a range of a kilometre. Weather conditions also play a role in this. The right choice of megaphone therefore depends on the range. The larger the area, the more wattage you need.
Power supply
Depending on the volume used, the batteries can quickly run out. Check regularly whether the megaphone still has sufficient battery capacity. This way you can use the megaphone when necessary. An extra set of batteries is good to have on hand if you unexpectedly need to use the megaphone for a longer period of time.
Size & Weight
Megaphones are available from 0.5 kg. Very handy if you have to hold the megaphone or use the megaphone while walking. If you have to talk for a long time or want to have your hands free, it is advisable to choose a megaphone with a shoulder strap or a megaphone with a separate microphone.
