LIFESAVING VEHICLE EXIT DEVICES OFFERED BY SAFE HOME PRODUCTS ® FEATURED ON KTVI
FOX 2 ST. LOUIS
Safe Home Product’s Online Catalog Items Res-Q-Me and LifeHammer Recommended
by Expert Underwater Rescuer in Case of Submerged Car Accident
IOWA CITY, Iowa – (Aug. 13, 2007) – Safe Home
Products, an online catalog provider of safety products for retail consumers and
businesses, announced today that two car safety products they sell, Res-Q-Me and
LifeHammer, were featured in a segment on KTVI Fox 2 in St. Louis. David Cruz, a
rescue worker from the Cottlesville Fire District, St. Charles, Mo, demonstrated
actions to take in the event of a submerged car accident like the Minnesota bridge
collapse. The keychain sized Res-Q-Me and the larger original Life
Hammer allow for a quick escape from land-based or submerged vehicles: first, use
the seatbelt cutter; then break the vehicle side window to escape.
“Safe Home Products ® is proud to offer products that can help consumers survive
in the unfortunate event they find themselves in a submerged car,” said Barbara
Staib, owner of Safe Home Products ®. “We are delighted to see
that the unit received positive feedback in the KTVI news segment.
This echoes similar feedback from police officers who use these tools for land-based
rescues. Earlier this year Florida Wilderness Institutes purchased Res-Q-Me units
for all their bus drivers, noting State code required such devices on all their
busses. ”

The LifeHammer product is a specially designed safety hammer with twin precision
steel points and a protected razor sharp blade end to cut seat belts. The Life Hammer
includes a quick release mount for car or truck. A luminescent pin at the base allows
for quick location in the dark. Res-Q-Me is a rescue tool on a key
chain that weighs less than 1 oz. To use the Res-Q-Me, separate the unit. Use the
razor blade to cut jammed seat belts. Then place the spring loaded steel point against
a tempered glass window and release. The force used to break the window
is 12 lbs. or less. Both products can be purchased online at www.safehomeproducts.com.
