Backpack With Alarm System

iSafe Alarm Backpack

To test the new iSafe Urban Crew Campus backpack, we gave it to a normal teenager (if ever that adjective could be applied to a teenager) to test it for us. You see, these iSafe bags are equipped with an alarm activation switch that is conveniently built into the right shoulder strap of the backpack, so if they're in danger, they simply have to pull the pin. The compact alarm features two-125 decibel sirens, a high intensity strobe light and weighs just three pounds with batteries.

After explaining to said teenager that she wasn't to treat this as her own personal disco system, or prank friends with it, she reluctantly tried it on. "It's not as heavy as I thought it would be." Score one point for backback. "I like all the padded sections - I could carry my laptop. And the mesh pockets on the side are handy" Score two . "It's comfortable." (That's due to the foam back and s-shaped shoulder straps.) Backpack is winning. Would she use it? "Yeah."

Would she be careful not to drop it on the floor, stand on it, or submerge it in water? She gave me a blank stare, as her friend drop-kicked her own backpack into the corner. The iSafe never stood a chance, but will Mom feel a little better knowing she won't kill it in the first few months of college and will have an ear-splitting alarm in her reach? Absolutely.

The one we road-tested was $89.99 but they also have "fanny packs," laptop messenger bags, and school backpacks.
