Sonic Assault is a unique high-pressure acoustic generating device which provides a substantial capability to disrupt and disperse. Speeches, demonstrations, crowd dynamics, etc. - this device has been used to "influence" more of these than you might think. Deployed near a podium, you might just have a case of an increasingly un-focused speaker with diminished sharpness and concentration. Or, loitering youths near a store entrance might be encouraged to move along without need of a confrontation. This is the rarely-available government model which the popular commercial version Sonic Nausea was based on. It provides substantially higher sound-pressure levels, more directionality, increased projection, an on-off switch, and LED status indicator. This is the new latest generation 2012 version, and has nearly triple the output of the previous 2009 version. Limited quantities are currently also available for non-government sales. Powered by two 9-volt batteries (included). Size: 5 3/4&#8243; x 3&#8243; x 2 1/4&#8243;. Deploy only with extreme discretion and in a lawful manner.

I've not measured it but I did read that its 59db when wide open. I use it for dry camping with my travel trailer. Unless I am running the a/c, I can run in eco mode. In eco mode you can barely hear it inside the camper. Outside, you can hear it but can easily talk over it or listen to the radio over it. I've heard most of the Honda generators that are out there. I can't tell that this is any louder than them.

I can't tell you the exact DB level at full volume--I don't have a meter. Full volume is reasonably loud--you should be able to hear it quite well across a BIG room. I never turn it all the way up. It is in my bedroom & that would be too loud. I have to turn it off when the TV is on so I can hear the TV better. Otherwise, I keep it on all the time.

not loud at all. I used it in an office setting and it didn't disturb anyone.

I find it is plenty loud, but I have not been around a lot of people or noise when listening to it. I think it is meant for personal use and not a party speaker.

Can't count the decibel level but it's not noisy. Relatively quite for the amount of air it's pushing. I'm not a rep but I hope this helps. I think it's a great product IMHO.

I don't know the actual db. rating but I would say "not bad, wear hearing protection indoors" I have found the sound less and lower pitched on softwoods, higher pitched with hardwoods. About the same level sound as a router while cutting.

Can't tell you dBA, but it's rated at 4 sones. That's not exactly quiet. I have one that I am replacing because it's too loud. It's fine for the half bath where a the sound can offer privacy. But in the master bath, it's just loud. Watts are unknown but it's not Energy Star rated.

It is very loud! I agree but I never tried to figure out the volume. Therefore, I don't know. Sorry!

Not loud at all. I am a very light sleeper and it hasn't disturbed me yet. Very happy with it.

I never tested to see how loud it could get, but the louder i made it go, the worse it sounded. you should be able to hear it withinn 10-20 ft. w/o any issues; you just might not like what you hear. I purchased it for music; sports or news may be OK.

sounds like fully distorted 1 watt, sound, or about 60-75 dB A level with soundmeterabout 1 meter away.. it is loud enough for small group...in a room. you can reducelevel of built in distortion, by going lower in vol.

i believe that the db rating on this is 68 db @23 ft. 23' must be some sort of std. distance. For around the house, it is quite quiet. i made a sound-reducing enclosure for when I take it to a campground (main purpose).

20 db at 2 feet ... short answer buy it. You will be fine. Wife is happy ..

Sorry but I don't know about the dB level. The room I'm using it in is 12x16. I would compare the noise level to that of a fan. To me it just seems like white noise.

I have not measured the volume in dB, However it is much quieter than the case fans and CPU fans. I currently have it in my workshop in an open air environment, so I never hear the thing. The fan is 140mm I believe, and is controlled by temperature. The intelligent fan control keeps fan noise to a minimum below 45C. Which it never reached, even while mining in the summer. Regardless, it will be a very quiet unit for most applications. Look for the review at Johnny Guru for more info. -buzznut

I measured mine at approximately 52 db from 3 feet. Keep in mind this is the outdoor unit. The indoor is much better, at 43 db full on. My neighbor's new central air unit is much, much louder than this at 63 db 30 feet away.
