Review: M Part MegaHorn - does the job, just not in the friendliest manner… cycling
makes a loud trilling noise to alert other road and path users of your presence; it gets people's attention but I'm not sure it's better than the classic, friendly cha-ching of a bike bell when it comes to the balance between 'alert' and 'alarmed'.
The MegaHorn is dead easy to use. Press the button and a din like a dalek singing in the shower ensues, causing folks to look round wondering what the hell that noise is. On the one hand, that's good: people know you're there. On the other, it's not a sound you'd associate with a bike and rider so it confuses some people.polite, but at least when people hear it they're expecting a bike.
Still, if you ride on the kind of crowded city streets where pedestrians tend to just step out, it does the job .Some users report that their MegaHorns just stopped working after a short while. I've had no problems. Thinking that water might have been the cause for those people, I doused the MegaHorn with a water spray to simulate a rain shower and it still worked, so it seems to live up to the claim of being water resistant. M Part doesn't specify an ingress protection rating , so we don't know just how water resistant it's supposed to be.
I then left it under 10cm of water for 10 minutes and after that it still worked, so I'm content to say that it's as water resistant as it's reasonable to expect, and maybe more so given there's no sealing round the battery case and there are gert holes up front to let the noise out.User reviews of the MegaHorn reveal an extra use case that hadn't occurred to me: getting a motorbike without a horn through its MOT.
