Since we are in
the holiday season you may find yourself traveling more so to visit family and
friends. I wrote a post about what you can do in order to protect yourself
while traveling. The suggestions in that post were very inexpensive ways you
can safe guard yourself while traveling. However with technology always
improving there are some technical devices you can take with you to better
protect yourself while traveling. There
are many other devices out there you can use and I will highlight then in future
posts but for now let’s take a closer look at a few items.
One product I
have covered is the personal alarm key chain. This is one I highly recommend
since when it comes to personal safety this would be the best defense. This is
a key chain with a high pitch alarm once the alarm is activated it would scare
any would be assailant away.
Furthermore it would bring attention to you so those in the area could
help you or contact the police. This
would not be only good for a person who is traveling but if a person who works
late or tend to be home alone this is a perfect layer of protection.
Another product
I would recommend is a portable door jammer. I know in most cases the hotel
room is equipment with some type of door latch. This would add to that layer of
protection plus what if for some reason the door latch is not on the door then
at least you have some way to prevent someone from entering your hotel room
without permission. I would also
recommend this for someone who may have to share a dorm room or if you live
alone. If you live in an apartment with
many apartment located in a hallway near yours then you may want to consider
having this small device to reinforce your door.
The last travel
item I would recommend would be a travel motion detector. This is a portable
motion light you can leave it on the side of your bed or hang it on a door.
When motion is detected the light will come on. I find this is great when you
are in a hotel room and you hear strange noises at night. If you hang this
motion detector alarm on your hotel room door if the door is opened then the
light will come on. I find this device very well worth the investment.
I hope this
post was helpful as always pleas leave a comment.
