Product Description The Res-Q-Me is like a mini LifeHammer that fits on your keychain! Similar to the LifeHammer, the Res-Q-Me is designed to break vehicle side windows and cut through jammed seatbelts. The window breaker is a spring-loaded metal spike. When pressed against a side window the spring releases and the metal tip shatters the glass allowing you and your family to escape. The spike is automatically reset after use and can be reused many times. (Approximately 12 lbs. of force is required to release the spike.) The blade guard attaches to your keychain and protects against unintended use. When attached to your keychain the Res-Q-Me stays firmly in place, yet detaches easily with a sharp tug when necessary. To use the seat belt cutter, hook over the seat belt and pull. The Res-Q-Me was awarded the Gold Medal for Best Automotive Product of the year at INPEX 2004.

Just in Case..... June 27, 2008 This product seems well built and efficient. I hope I never need to use it, but just in case.........I have it hanging from the blinker lever.
Great June 25, 2008 These are too cool. Thankfully we have not used them but it looks like they will do the trick if they are ever needed. We pushed the end onto a piece of cardboard to see how the glass breaker worked. I was worried that you could accidentally hurt yourself with it but the metal is rounded and you have to push hard for it to be exposed. We even gave one to our 10 year old incase she ever needs it. They come in different colors but I like the yellow to make it easier to find. I carry mine on my keys and it is not too bulky or distracting. My husband just keeps his in his truck because he doesn't like extra things on his keys but he can still get to it quickly. The compact size is great. We used to have the full size safety hammers that took up a lot of room. The price is well worth it if it is ever needed. I would recomend these. They would also make great gifts especially for new drivers!

I was slightly disappointed with this product because I received it and it did not have instructions on how to use it effectively.
It's Worth the Peace of Mind - Small and Light February 11, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
You'll never know how valuable this device is until you need it, but I feel better knowing that I am now better prepared for some various car disasters. The keychain is very light and of a small enough size that I don't think it adds much to my usual set of keys and pocket knife. I think it is a lot more practical than the full-size LifeHammer which would require you to mount that device to your car. This keychain version allows you to have it on you in case you are the passenger in somebody else's car. I also recommend that anybody who purchases this device actually rehearse what they would need to do prior to an actual disaster. Another reviewer mentioned the Discovery channel's series MythBusters. There is an episode where they test various strategies inside a car that they submerge into a swimming pool. I highly recommend you try to find that episode and watch it and go to other sites. Being mentally prepared without this device is better than being mentally unprepared even with this device. So the device is excellent for what it is, a simple tool and not a complete solution.
Just as described February 5, 2008 I received this product in a timely manner and it was exactly as described. Thankfully, I have not had to use it but it will come in handy if the need ever arises! They are a little big for my husbands ksychain, so I am not sure what he will do with it.
