Last weekend I gave my uncle his first bell. Gave it to him on sat. He went away. Not sure if he put it on. That Monday on his way home from work bam nailed from behind on a hill at a stop sign. Went to see the bike and the bell was on. Felt real bad.

I got one of those small zip ties and attached to the frame near the front forks

He's good minor damage just scrapes didn't even dent the fender. Just enough to knock him over. So I guess it did work?? He could have been killed

For double security, I used a zip tie and 550 cord, and it is hung right under my right floor off the frame.

Good to hear.... rubber and metal are repairable.

I have one on my bike, and always have, and I always put them on my friends bikes for whatever positive juju I can pass along.

Got one as a present from my daughter, put it on recently and since then the bike has re-developed a primary knock (at the dealer yesterday) and a pipe fell on the front fender, a ding and some scratches, SMFH! Dealer can fix the fender, about $150. Reminds me when I was a young driver, had a St. Christopher (Patron Saint of safe travel) medal in 2 of my earlier cars, I crashed them both, I was fine, the cars not so much. Never used a St. Christopher medal again. Superstition I know...

It's a gremlin bell... Just let him hold it, that way his hands are full and he can't screw with your bike.

Thats funny right there, your fine and the cars not so much and you think the medal did no good.
