Summer Travel Essential: This 2-in-1 Tracker and Safety Gadget Is $50 Right Now
Heading out on a summer trip? You might want to pack something that does double duty: keeping tabs on your luggage and offering a little personal security. The Pebblebee Halo is a Bluetooth tracker and a safety device rolled into one, and right now it’s down to $49.99 on Amazon — that’s a ten-dollar discount and the lowest price we’ve spotted. Plus, if you buy three, Amazon throws in a fourth one free as part of a limited-time deal.
So what does it actually do? It plugs into both Apple’s Find My network and Google’s Find Hub, meaning you can ping your lost bag or keys from pretty far away. The Halo has a Bluetooth range of about 500 feet, and with those networks backing it up, you can track items even when you’re not close by. It’s rechargeable, water-resistant, and works a lot like the Pebblebee Clip 5 — which we’ve called a solid alternative to AirTags and Tiles.
But here’s the twist: pull a tab on the Halo, and it lets out a 130-decibel siren, flashes bright strobe lights, and automatically shares your location with one emergency contact. If you want to loop in multiple people at once, you’ll need Pebblebee’s Alert Live subscription, which runs $24.99 a year. Good news: the first year is free, so at this price, you’re getting a lot of functionality for not much cash. Whether you’re wandering a new city or walking back to your hotel late at night, this little gadget has your back.
