lifeguard whistles are the same, but not
If you get lifeguard whistles that are Fox 40 brand, they are functionally equivalent. They usually are a buck or two cheaper. But, the black ones usually have a white medical cross on the side, so I never used them for my high school games.
I did however, buy a couple of dozen of them for my teenage age referees for the twelve year old league. I added a little black marker and no one knew the difference. |

Both. I deafen myself whenever I use the Sonik Blast and it is harder to manipulate the tweet.

Tried one for football. Don't like it. Takes too much air.

The Sonik sounds absolutely horrible. I refuse to use it officiating. I bought one and now use it to direct traffic at work. I prefer the Eclipse. It sounds the exact same as the classic IMHO. I always have a few spares on hand. |

For little kids games, I have a bag full of old Acme Thunderers (remember them, the Blackberry of officiating whistles?). I found that youngsters always covered their ears when I used the Eclipse.
