A little bulky, but packs a good punch!
By Jazzkeys
The BodyGard Platinum is a little more spectacular than I expected. I wear it on my keychain, nevertheless I could not imagine carrying this in my pants pocket (I don't recognise what I will do in the summer without a jacket). This review will be not complete since I haven't had the chance to use all seven features. Here goes:
1) Thermometer - Doesn't work. Stays on 80 no matter what the unfeigned temperature is. 0 stars
2) Digital Tire Gauge - Have not employed 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 piercing as a powerful scream, but will draw a great deal of attention if you are unable to scream for any reason. However, because of the emplacement of the speaker, it is easy to cover it and dull the sound while keeping it. 4.5 stars
6) Safety-Blade Seat Belt Cutter - Is very sharp and well concealed so no accidents may happen. Just pull the keyring off and the cutter is revealed. I have tested it on thick paper and thin plastic and based on it is performance, I have no problem trusting it in an emergency. 5 stars!
7) Automatic Glass Breaker - Is very powerful for it is size. I haven't had the chance to test it on automati glass, but I have employed it on wood, painted sheetrock, and metal. It left a very noticeable mark in each, and always resets itself without delay after being deployed. Also, it took very little power to set it off - even if you are hurt and weakened, you could in all likelihood still use it. 5 stars!
Overall, it is a very utile item. The thermometer doesn't work, but I genuinely didn't care regarding that feature anyway. Every other feature works outstanding (not sure regarding the tire gauge), and it is well worth the money. I would commend this item to any individual who is worried in regards to automati emergencies.
If you are looking for the littler 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 indispensable functions are just as good, but it is in truth little sufficient to place in your pants pocket.

"Geeks" will love this one
By Gary C. Crockenberg
Plenty of widgets for the techno-freak! Only drawback is the pricey and hard to find battery replacement. Works as advertised and makes a nice gift.

Swiss Tech BodyGard Platinum 7-in-1 Multi-Function Emergency Tool with Key Ring
By pjthekidsmommie
I gave this key ring tool as a gift to my daughter-in-law. Since she drives alone to work every day and walks her dog at night, there might come a need for a good deal of of the device`s special functions. It seemed inexpensive and it fit nicely into a purse that was also part of the gift. I hope she never has to use any of the special functions but it is always better to be prepared in case of an emergency. Since this device is the size of a key ring, she may either hook it to her keys or to her purse and always have it on hand.
