Special clip detaches quickly from the key ring to reveal the protected seat belt cutter. The upgraded flashlight has high and low beams. Rugged body glows in the dark and is water resistant.

 STAY AWAY - COPY FROM CHINA April 8, 2008

This is a vulgar copy of the ResQMe! This 7 in 1 tools is a joke! About a 10 in 1? Do not buy this, last time i tried it failed! Do not gamble with your life and get the ResQMe, the only safety tool made in the US and trusted by professionals!
 A little bulky, but packs a good punch! February 22, 2008

The BodyGard Platinum is a little larger than I expected. I wear it on my keychain, however I could not imagine carrying this in my pants pocket (I don't know what I will do in the summer without a jacket). This review will be incomplete since I haven't had the opportunity to use all seven features. Here goes:
1) Thermometer - Doesn't work. Stays on 80 no matter what the true temperature is. 0 stars
2) Digital Tire Gauge - Have not used yet (but at least the readout works).
3) Flashing Red Distress Light - Is very bright and strong. Very pleased. 5 stars!
4) High Intensity High and Low Beam Bright White LED Flashlight - Provides very bright lighting with either setting. 5 stars!
5) Powerful Sonic Alarm - Is not as loud as a powerful scream, but will draw plenty of attention if you are unable to scream for any reason. However, because of the location of the speaker, it is easy to cover it and dull the sound while holding it. 4.5 stars
6) Safety-Blade Seat Belt Cutter - Is very sharp and well hidden so no accidents can happen. Just pull the keyring off and the cutter is revealed. I have tested it on thick paper and thin plastic and based on its performance, I have no problem trusting it in an emergency. 5 stars!
7) Automatic Glass Breaker - Is very powerful for its size. I haven't had the chance to test it on auto glass, but I have used it on wood, painted sheetrock, and metal. It left a very noticeable mark in each, and always resets itself immediately after being deployed. Also, it took very little power to set it off - even if you are hurt and weakened, you could probably still use it. 5 stars!
Overall, it is a very useful item. The thermometer doesn't work, but I really didn't care about that feature anyway. Every other feature works great (not sure about the tire gauge), and it is well worth the money. I would recommend this item to anyone who is worried about auto emergencies.
If you are looking for the smaller version without the thermometer or tire gauge try this out: Swiss Tech BGCSBK BodyGard 5-in-1 Multi-Function Emergency Tool with Key Ring. My wife has this one, and the important functions are just as good, but it is actually small enough to place in your pants pocket.
