Differences between a deer whistle and The Hornet Electronic Deer Avoidance System

Differences between a deer whistle and The Hornet Electronic Deer Avoidance System.

Feature	Deer Whistle	The Hornet Electronic System
Technology	Wind-activated device that uses airflow to create a sound.	Electronically powered sonic generator that creates a directional sonic wave.
Power Source	Passive; relies on the vehicle’s movement and airflow.	Active; connects to the vehicle’s electrical system (12V).
Operation Speed	Requires a minimum speed (often 30+ mph) to function.	Works at any vehicle speed.
Effectiveness	Debated and not widely supported by scientific studies. Studies have shown they are often not loud enough and may not produce a sound in a deer’s ideal hearing range.	Proven reduced risk of collisions backed with evidence and testimonials.
Limitations	Can become clogged with dirt, insects, or snow. Effectiveness is dependent on vehicle speed.	We have spent years in research and development and are the original inventors and patent holders of The Hornet.
