To answer the question ‘How Does a Lifeline Alarm Work?’ we’ll explain the two key components of a Lifeline Alarm. The first is the Lifeline Vi Alarm Unit – the core of our system.

Manufactured by industry leaders Tunstall, the base unit contains cutting-edge alarm technology in a sleek, discreet casing. It uses your landline telephone connection to call through to our Response Team in emergencies. The built-in loudspeaker allows our team to communicate with you when you need help – it’s loud enough that you can hear it even if you’re in another room. It also features a built-in microphone, so you can talk to the Response Team about what has happened. In addition, the alarm unit’s 40-hour backup battery means that not even a power cut can disrupt your Lifeline service.

The MyAmie Pendant has a battery life of seven years, so no charging is required. It is completely waterproof and has a range of 100 metres, allowing you to enjoy total peace of mind throughout your home and garden, even when bathing, showering, or washing the dishes.

You’ll receive two attachments for your MyAmie Pendant, so you can choose how you’d like to wear it. You can choose between the comfortable neck cord or an adjustable wrist strap. Whichever option you choose, the MyAmie Pendant is stylish and discreet; it can be tucked under a shirt or up your sleeve if you so wish. It is designed to be as comfortable as possible – in fact, lots of alarm users tell us they don’t take their pendants off to go to the shops or meet with friends!
