The following<br /> is research that I culled together from prominent security <br /> experts. I take "my" safety very seriously and you should take<br /> yours seriously too. So--let's get right to it....<br /> <br /> I. Personal Safety (while traveling or on vacation).<br /> <br /> Hotel Safe (use it for jewelry, passport, credit cards etc).<br /><br /> A. Outside of your hotel:<br /><br /> 1. Security Wallet<br /> Wear it around your neck while sight seeing or touring. Corporate<br /> Travel Safety sells one with a "reinforced wire" that can't be<br /> cut from around your neck.<br /> View/Buy: www corporatetravelsafety.com<br /><br /> B. Inside your hotel room:<br /><br /> 2. Pepper Spray Pen (for Key Ring)<br /> Self-explanatory. <br /> View/Buy: www yoursecurity.us<br /><br /> 3. Super Door Stop<br /> Door stop with alarm (DSAL-2)<br /> View/Buy: www feelsafernow.com<br /> Door stop without alarm<br /> View/Buy: www protectmefirst.com<br /><br /> 4. Clapper Plus<br /> A "remote control device" that turns lights on and off (You<br /> don't have to get out of bed!)<br /> View/Buy: www drugstore.com/TheClapper<br /><br /> 5. Personal Motion Detector<br /> Place strategically in your hotel room (it will read any<br /> movement and then sound an alarm).<br /> View/Buy: www protectmefirst.com<br /><br /> 6. Pepper Spray Pen (for Key Ring)<br /> Get a long cord, attach the pepper spray pen to a long cord<br /> and hang it on your hotel bed post. (Remember you CAN NOT carry<br /> this on board the airplane---you have to pack it in the luggage<br /> cargo section).<br /> View/Buy: www yoursecurity.us<br /><br /> C. Locator <br /> 7. GPS Tracker<br /> Get a cell phone with a GPS Tracker. (Although with exception<br /> of a few States "all" cell phones can be tracked by the police).<br /> View/Buy: www wherify.com/wherifone<br /><br /> For those of you with children the IOn Kids is now available.<br /> A homer/wrist tag is placed on your child's arm (it looks<br /> like a "watch") and a "base unit" is carried by the parent (it<br /> looks like a "tv remote control"). It sounds an alarm if anyone<br /> tries to "remove the watch/homer/wrist tag" from your child's <br /> wrist....<br /> View/Buy: www Ion-Kids.com<br /><br /> D. Police<br /> 8. 911<br /> Put "911" on your cell phone speed dial. <br /><br /> e. Defense Weapons <br /> 9. Taser C-2 (non-fatal)<br /> View/Buy: www taser.com<br /><br /> 10. Fire Arm (fatal)<br /> Police recommend a 32 or 38 for women. Personally I prefer<br /> a 25. (Do get special fire arms training. Your<br /> yellow pages will list "training sites". Weapons stores<br /> can also recommend fire arms training sites. And--you must<br /> get a "permit" if you want to carry a "concealed weapon" when<br /> you travel. Note: There is even a bra holster!).<br /> View/Buy: www PaxtonQuigley.com<br /><br /> II. Personal Safety (while in your Car)<br /> <br /> 11.
