External Automation Trigger for Siren

Has anyone had any luck using an external siren, maybe through a Sonoff relay or something similar, to sound a louder siren?

Given the siren built into the homebase is woeful, and the camera sirens aren’t much better, adding to that the siren that Eufy released is a terrible siren?! The sound is not alarming, and the volume is low.

I have tried using Alexa, but it seems Eufy is not providing an alarm state output from the homebase or camera, and API links only work if Home Assistant is on the same network, not remotely if you don’t want to have to set up a Raspberry Pi on the local network.
