Product Information
Full details
The Acme Tornado T2000 Sports Whistle is designed for referees, coaches, and sports officials who require a reliable and high-decibel signaling device. Its primary benefit is its innovative air-circulation technology that ensures a crisp, powerful sound even in high-noise or harsh weather conditions. While its performance is industry-leading, users should be aware that the high-frequency output is extremely loud and may require caution when used in close proximity to athletes.

FAQs
Does the Acme Tornado T2000 have a pea inside?
No, it features a pealess design, making it immune to jamming from moisture or dirt.
Is this whistle safe for indoor use?
While it is effective indoors, the high decibel level can be jarring in small gymnasiums; we recommend blowing more softly.
Can I use this for water sports?
Yes, its air-circulation design is specifically suited for use in wet conditions.
How do I clean the whistle?
Rinse it thoroughly with clean water and allow it to air dry.
Does it come with a lanyard?
The whistle features an attachment loop, but a lanyard is typically sold separately.
Troubleshooting
Muffled sound quality
Check for debris or obstructions in the intake or output channels and rinse with clean water.
Whistle feels slippery during use
Ensure the exterior is dried thoroughly after cleaning; if necessary, use a lanyard grip accessory.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use the Tornado T2000, simply hold the whistle firmly and blow a quick, forceful burst of air into the mouthpiece. It is compatible with standard lanyards via the integrated attachment loop. To care for the whistle, rinse it under clean, lukewarm water after every use, especially if it has been exposed to salt water or debris. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can degrade the material. Store the whistle in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the internal sound-generating channels.
