You may have a spare tire at the ready and a fully-stocked emergency kit in your trunk, but none of that can prepare you for road emergencies like overheating, a sudden breakdown, or worse, your breaks failing. You can’t predict when these car-related troubles will happen. 

If you get stuck in an area without phone reception, what would you do?

This is where the PanicSafe Emergency Locator & Car Charger comes in handy. A GPS tracker, sensor, and charger all in one, this safety device can bail you out of sticky situations. Think of it as your own personal Bat-Signal. But instead of summoning Batman, PanicSafe texts, emails, and calls up to seven of your pre-determined contacts, like 911 or your dad. We don’t know about you, but that’s better than a searchlight with a bat emblem.

Check it out in action:

PanicSafe updates your contacts with your location every 2-3 minutes via the app and notifies them when you deactivate the alert. And if you get involved in an accident, there’s no need to press the panic button as it’s automatically triggered upon impact. Not to mention it has its own internal power supply to consume if your car’s power is disrupted.

When you’re not in danger, you can also use it as a car charger. Neat!

So the next time you get on the road, make sure you have PanicSafe just in case. Normally $79.99, you can get it on sale now at the Mashable Shop for $49.99 — a savings of 37%.
