What is an AutoXscape Tool?
AutoXscape is a high-quality self-rescue and emergency tool for cars full of features. AutoXscape is a beautifully made 3-in-1 multitool that includes a high-powered flashlight (with a bright SOS/strobe mode), a seatbelt cutter, and a window glass breaker. It is meant to give drivers peace of mind and help them and their passengers get out of dangerous situations. A tool that could save your life in the worst roadside emergencies. In addition, there are more car gadgets you should have for your safety.
Even though no one ever wants to think about it, your car can become a death trap in a matter of seconds. One wrong turn into a body of water is all it takes to get into a very bad situation. But if you have the AutoXscape 3-in-1 emergency tool in your glove box, you can get out of the car just as quickly and get to safety.
This tool is made of military-grade aluminum and has a high-powered flashlight, a tool for breaking glass, and a tool for cutting seatbelts. The flashlight part has a CREE XP-E2 LED emitter with three settings and a maximum output of 135 lumens (high, low, and SOS). The seatbelt cutter is made of SK2 high-carbon steel and can cut nylon-like butter. The tip is made of tungsten and can break the glass. And if you don’t have time to get to the tip of the belt cutter, there’s a second glass-breaking tip on the device’s end cap.

AutoXscape Uses
The autoXscape gets rid of the need to reach for three different tools. Its vehicle mount should be kept on the inside of your driver’s door for easy access. You should start carrying a multi-use emergency escape tool that can break the window. In this case, use your AutoXscape Tool to cut your seatbelt and call for help. Have one small tool do it all. Because let’s say something goes wrong on your cross-country road trip or while driving on a long commute and you get hit by another car and your car falls into a body of water. Experts say you have about a minute to escape and stay alive.
How to use the AutoXscape Tool in case of an emergency
Before you do anything else, unbuckle your seatbelt (even before you try calling for help). If your buckle is stuck, you can cut it with the AutoXscape.
“Remove the tool’s tail cap to expose the cutter,” the professionals at Ingear suggest. With one hand, tighten the seatbelt. Keep your grip on it. With your other hand, hold the tool firmly and press the blade’s edge, which is recessed in its protective housing, against the seatbelt’s closer edge. While the seatbelt is still tight, forcefully pull the blade diagonally across the belt, away from you.”
Roll down the windows instead of trying to open the doors as the next step in the escape plan (the weight from the water pressure will be too much). When you open the door, more water gets into the sinking car.
If the electronic circuits that control the window are fried and you can’t roll it down, break the window with the pointed end of the AutoXscape. But while the point at the tip of the tail cap is a good place to break glass, the strong point inside the tail cap is the better one of the two. Hold the tool firmly and aim the point at the corner of a side or rear window, not the middle. Hit the corner of the window hard and often, if necessary, until it breaks.
You probably won’t be wearing gloves, so plan on getting cuts on your hands. Geisbrecht said you have 30 seconds to do this before the car sinks, and he stressed how important it is to have these tools close by so you can act quickly. Once you’ve exited the vehicle. Use the 135 lumens, high-beam flashlight to call for help.
