Avg Customer Rating: 
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.

ResQMe
Seems to be a practical safety device for safe exit of vehicle if submerged and electrical power to window lifts is disabled. Kinda bulky on a keychain, though.

What if you can't put your car in park to release the key chain from the ignition?
This product is a wonderful idea. I bought one for my 17 year old daughter and one for me. However, a major design flaw - if you keep this on your key chain - how will you disengage the key chain if the car is in drive, which it would be if you were in an accident or went into water. Who would think to put their car in park, if you could, in order to get to the ResQMe? While I liked the idea of the key chain version, it's better to keep it hooked to something else. Don't put it in the console or glovebox. If they pop open on impact, you could lose the contents of both and then what good would it do? I think they should have come up with another way to keep this in your car. For now, I have it attached to my turn signal arm with a rubber band. At least until I come up with a better solution.

ResQme is a Great Product
After the death of 4 of our neighbors in a car that turned over in a pond, I decided to get these for my whole family. We put these on the turn signal arm in all cars with nylon zip ties, so they are always in place if needed. I hope we never need them, but if we do they are at the ready.

great item for your keychain
if you drive anywhere near water this is a "must have." the larger size would be
more useful but the great part is that you will always know exactly where this is
in the vehicle!

Can't wait to be trapped underwater!!
Since I haven't been able to try it out in a life or death situation I give it three stars. If I die- then it gets a 1 star. If I live it will get five.
