How loud are the Alarms?

kind of a hard question to answer over the internet. They seem loud enough for me and I happen to be a bit hard of hearing.

I live in a cottage that's a little over 1100 square feet. My hearing is pretty good, and I can hear the beep from the bedroom, which is on one end, when it's in the kitchen, which is on the other end.

Loud enough to be heard in another room on the same level as the kitchen. However, I bring the timer into my home office.

The activation chirp is loud, but nowhere near as loud as the alarm itself.

I don't have a way to test the decibels but I would say it is approximately 30% louder than my iphone6. I feel much better sleeping now and am confident I will wake up for emergency calls.

This was a gift to my grandson who lives out of town. I have not heard the alarm. Sorry.

The alarm is not real loud like an old time wind up alarm clock, but is probably loud enough to wake you if you are a "light sleeper".

There is no way that we are aware of to make the alarm louder. You might want to contact Garmin directly.

It's pretty high pitched. I have trouble hearing it. It would be a great alarm if "alert" was lower frequency and a bit louder.

I can't tell you in decibels, but it is pretty loud. Too loud to operate in the morning when some are still sleeping

The receiver has a switch that can be turned off and the volume can be set on low or high. At low we can hear it throughout the house. Volume is not the issue. It's the frequent false alarms that is bothersome.

Quite loud. Well it depends how close you are to your neighbors, but if you leave in a house I don't think it will wake them up.

The audible tone/beep is fairly loud, though not obnoxious. I think it's loudness will depend entirely on its location. Under a cushion, for example will have the expected muting effect. In most situations you will find the alarm sufficient, from my experience.

No, and the alarm is extremely loud. I use the chime it is loud enough to here if my ASD son is entering an area of the home he is not permitted to.

Yes. I like the clock radio. At first I was worried that the alarm wasn't super loud but it has not been an issue. Hope this helps.

It isnt that loud. It depends on how light of sleepers your kids are. Wouldnt bother my daughter, but would wake my son.

I think the speaker is just below the sensor on the front. Perhaps that is where you would apply something. I'm still trying to wrap my head around wanting to muffle an alarm. Isn't the point of an alarm to be loud?

The alarms are loud enough to hear even behind a closed door. I have my furthest around 15 feet, it will all depend upon the amount of other wireless devices you have running as to whether or not it will interfere with the signal.

The alarm is not real loud, and no volume control. Unless you had this inside in a place a few rooms away, or maybe in basement if it was not far away from the door down to the basement, you wouldn't hear it probably.
