AnnoyingPCB - The Prank Device That Won’t Stop Beeping for 3 Years

Fun for wherever you want to cause mischief and mayhem. Home, the office, your friend's car, random stores, wherever! I got cussed out several times over this wonderful device. The only downside I had was my dad went around the house and replaced all the batteries in the smoke detectors so I went out and bought new ones for him after coming clean, lol. Also, DO NOT bring in your luggage on flights - TSA does NOT find this prank device very funny and you WILL be delayed at best.Small size makes it able to hide this thing just about anywhere. The random delay between chirps makes it almost impossible to find. I've used it several times now and it has worked every time. Also the battery life so far seems correct, though I need to try a longer period to test this aspect. So far worth every penny!

Where to start...I purchased this to prank my office staff. The ladies in the office are a ton of fun, always joking around and having fun, and absolute rockstars at their jobs. They're meticulous and detail oriented, not much gets by them...The kind of environment you enjoy working in, work hard play hard. Enter the little tiny noisemaker. I hid it in a decoration located centrally between the 3 offices, but closer to 2 of them with the beep muffled ever so slightly by it's hiding place. The hiding place was key, due to the short duration of the beep which sounds like a smoke detector alert, it makes the sound very non-directional and hard to pinpoint. That combined with the logic in the board that guarantees there's no rhyme or reason to the frequency of the alert made for the perfect 2 week run of mayhem.It started out as a minor annoyance, but the search escalated quickly. I of course helped them look for the mystery beep, pulling down smoke detectors, checking batteries, unplugging appliances that might possibly be the source. Nothing seemed to help. I checked in with them periodically to see if the noise had abated and even suggested a couple times that they may just be imagining the beep. They started recording the times that it would beep, to try to decipher a pattern that might lead to solving the mystery. I encouraged and supported their efforts the whole time, being as helpful as I possibly could!I announced my prank in the weekly company meeting which got a ton of laughs, and am now walking on pins and needles because I know retribution is coming my way...100% worth it! Do not use this on someone if you're not prepared for them to plot revenge.I can verify that the beeping is as random as could be for anyone that needs to explore their diabolical side, this is a great way to go.5 stars, highly recommend.

Works exactly as advertised.

Worked. Kinda evil. lol Easily found. Gotta set it to it's longest between chirps.

Just got a call from my sister. She lives out of state. We planted this thing in her car back in July when she visited. It’s been over a month and she just happens to call about an unrelated thing and it went off when we were talking. She freaked out and said she was going to try to record that sound and show it to the car dealership that she was on the way to now to figure out why it was going off. I told her to cancel the appointment. Turns out her and her husband have spent this entire time freaking out about something being wrong with the car and spending hours researching to figure out what it may be. Apparently they went and had the car serviced and still couldn’t figure it out.We also used it when we had my sister in law house sit to drive them crazy - they made the unfortunate accident of giving it back. And again when my mom moved in to her new house and they thought something was wrong with their dryer.Best $13 ever.

It is small and discreet and easy to change between sounds. The sounds vary from loud, annoying, obvious to faint, questionable and chirpy. I’ve decided upon a middle range obvious annoying yet unidentifiable noise and have attached a double sided tape to it, but have not been brave enough to stick it somewhere near my overly annoying coworker’s desk. I’m going to have such a hard time not laughing hysterically and keeping a straight face while she loses her mind trying to figure out what it is and where it’s coming from. Thoughts to adhere it to a ceiling panel or to the upper inside of her desk drawer. Will update later with her reaction.

I was disappointed with this prank device, even though it did everything they said it would. It was easy to change sounds and simple to turn on/off. I chose the “cricket” sound and placed the device in the room where my family would be. It doesn’t go off very often, but when it does, you could hear it with no problem. The sound I chose sounds like a cricket, but it also resembles the alert from a smoke detector when the battery needs to be changed. I let it go on for awhile without saying anything, but when my sister started saying they needed to get the ladder from the shed and check the battery. I had to admit I was attempting to play a joke. It didn’t work out the way I wanted, since I envisioned them searching for a cricket and this never happened.

Fun gag for everyone but your targets. Just enough beep to drive your friends crazy. My only complaint is that it beeps when you turn it on, and it beeps as you go through trying to select a tone, so you really need to plan your prank ahead of time. Durability could be better, battery no longer stays in, but it worked once and that's good enough for the price.
