There are far better options out there

I thought it was great when I first saw it many years ago, but admittedly I didn't do as much research as I usually do. I was very disappointed with the lack of forethought in the design of this product. Here are my brief pros and cons: Pros: - Potential life-saving features - Compact design CONS: - Only helps if you can access it - May be too small to find - Red clip easily detaches from main unit - Coin cell batteries will be eaten away - Small light with a broken button WHY do you advertise attaching your keys or something important to a useless clip that slips off easily?!?! This proves problematic for the obvious reason that keys get lost, and also because the device can be hard to find when you really need it; he can only save your life if he is within reach! I've seen a similar tool paired with a USB charger that is held securely in a car's cigarette lighter for easy access in an emergency. Another issue I had with this unit was that the unusual button cell batteries were getting corroded, although I intentionally left a plastic tab to prevent them from snagging on the contacts. My cell phone flashlight would be more reliable. I hope my review helped you make an informed decision.
