ABSTRACT:
A device for signalling the winning of a bingo game includes a housing within which is contained a control unit including a voice chip, an amplified speaker system, a light indicator and a activation button. In the preferred embodiment of the invention, the device is self-contained and compact so as to present a readily portable item that is provided with an internal power source connected to the control unit through an ON/OFF switch. In use, when a user of the device wins a bingo game, the activation button is used to signal the control unit. The control unit initially, automatically produces an audible "BINGO" call indicating the win through the voice chip, amplifier and speaker. The control unit then provides a continuous visual signal through the light indicator to aid game representatives to readily locate the winning player.
