Product Description
ResQMe is a revolutionary hand-held rescue tool amazingly powerful despite its mini size. A fierce but absolutely safe spring loaded stainless steel spike allows the vehicle occupant to easily break side windows and a carefully concealed stainless steel razor blade slices through a jammed seat belt to prevent vehicular entrapment.

 ResQMe keychain emergency escape tool July 8, 2007

This is a great tool. Its about 3" long by 1.25" wide and .625" thick. Thats roughly the same size as a standard remote keyfob. It is very lightweight so it doesn't make your keys too heavy either.
I chose the yellow so it would be easy to find, and so far it's helped me find my keys at least 20 times. To top it off it comes in a set of 2.
The basic concept is easy. There are two tools, one to cut the seat belt and one to break open the window. The tool attaches to the keychain by a plastic clip that snaps on firmly and doubles as the seat belt cutter protective cover.
When you need it you can just grab it and pull away from the keyring, leaving the keys in the ignition. Slip it over the seatbelt and pull. Slices like butter. Then press the larger end against the window and press. No need to smack or swing or use any force at all. The spring loaded punch will do the work for you. The hardened metal point pops into the window smashing it easily. Try it on a cardboard box, or a piece of scrap wood and you can see the dent it makes. Don't try it on your window though, unless you are ready to buy a new piece of glass.
There is a note in the instructions warning that it does not work on laminated safety glass. Front windshields use that type to keep the pieces from cutting you if it breaks. It makes that milky spiderweb look and holds all the pieces together.
I have had the lifehammer tool, but there is no good place to keep it. If I needed it, would I have time, or even be able to find in the glove box or the bottom of the center console? I doubt it. With the ResQMe keychain, its right at the ignition, where you could reach it any time. This is a fantastic improvement.
It comes in several colors too help accesorize too. Personally I love the yellow. Comes in package of 2 so you have one for your loved one too.
Great in concept, but they're a killer to bathroom sinks. : ) July 5, 2007

I bought the two-pack and can only rate them in concept in that I hope they'll never be needed. I gave one to my sister and one to my g/f, the only people I ride in cars with. It's one of the few items that will be important to have IF needed, but yetter yet if NEVER needed, (kind of like a parachute or bulletproof vest.)
One note: DON'T TEST THESE ON A BATHROOM SINK!. They work very well, but the sink won't work well afterwards.

I was about to buy an escape hammer when I spotted this Keychain Rescue Tool. I like that it is small enough to store close to the driver's seat. Fortunately, I have not had the need to use it.

This tool is always with me since it is on my keyring. I often end up using it to cut string, tape and packaging bands.

I bought a few of these last year, and, thankfully have not had the opportunity to use them. I have tested them, and they all worked fine.
Do the test the manufacturer tells you to do....hit a board and see if the pin comes out. You will see the mark of the pin on the wood. Mine all worked great. These would break a window, no problem. I recommend highly. They are not expensive, and can save lives.
