 A bit of a premature review, as we haven't had to use it yet. December 27, 2007

... Pulls from key chain easily with a yank, but it looks to be attached firmly enough to not yank itself free during a car accident's rapid deceleration.
... Having this device hanging from your ignition means it's more likely to be within reach. There are more effective tools, like larger emergency hammers, but your steering column will always be right in front of you. Another device may not. Anyone who's ever had their seatbelt lock as they reached for the radio or glove compartment or spilled coffee should be able to relate.
... Haven't tested on auto glass, but breaker pin has a surprisingly good punch for not being difficult to push. A lot of tool punches are difficult to press in, but this requires minimal effort and punches hard with a very sharp point. Don't test it too much on hard material which may dull the point.
... Flashlight is not bright, but in complete darkness, it may be greatly appreciated.
... I thought the sonic alarm was sadly inadequate, and really just a "feature" to make the device more attractive. You're better of yelling for help or screaming, as I don't think the sound of this alarm carries well or would dissuade or startle an attacker. And, as it's a small device, if you're not holding it perfectly, your hand muffles the sound very easily.
... It's right for the price, as long as you're not depending on the extra features, and really, having a light in a dark place could be invaluable. But since I was buying several, I only bought these for female relatives that might feel more more comfortable having a light and alarm. To save money, I bought the ResQMe for male relatives or females that I know carry lights on their keychains. The yellow ResQMe's are easier to see in dim light and have the two most important features, glass breaking and belt cutting.ResQMe, The Keychain Version of the Original LifeHammer (Yellow), Pack of 2
 Too big and bulky February 25, 2008

Too big and bulky for me. I think I would have rather had the Rescue-Me version of this item. I do think its more practical than the full-size hammer. The siren is not loud, and I wouldn't think to use it.
