It was a hot sunny afternoon and Bola was sitting beside the swimming pool waiting for Francis her fiancé and swimming tutor. Well, at least I can take a dip to reduce this heat while waiting for him, she thought to herself.She reckoned seeing 4ft written on the side of the pool and stepped in at that point, oh no this can't be 4ft she thought as she struggled to swim up, “help!!!” she shouted frantically in between gulps of water. I am surely dying today she thought. Suddenly like a light bulb coming on she remembered the wristband Francis gave her during their first swimming lesson and told her “babe this may save your life one day”. She quickly pulled the device’s lever as instructed and an airbag deployed in an instant, pulling her to the surface of the pool like an invisible helping hand - to her great relief.
This is a fictitious story but it illustrates what the Kingii Inflatable Wristband Flotation Device can do. In a country like Nigeria where a majority of the population cannot swim, this device will literally save many lives when put to use.
ABOUT THE KINGII:
The new Kingii is a small inflatable floatation device that is designed to be worn on the wrist like a wrist watch when one is in or around water. Its small size and ergonomic design make it a more convenient alternative to a lifejacket, especially for those who would ordinarily forgo wearing one. Because it is quite discreet in appearance and does not restrict movement in water when not activated, the Kingii also makes a dependable safety accessory for funseekers around swimming pools and beaches.
HOW IT WORKS:
The Kingii consists of a bright orange inflatable airbag, folded up in a pouch and integrated onto a wrist strap alongside a replaceable compressed carbon dioxide cartridge. Pulling a lever instantly triggers a gas cartridge release mechanism to inflate the airbag with carbon dioxide (much like a car airbag) and provide buoyancy to an accidentally submerged person. Once inflated, the person in distress can then wrap his/her arms around the airbag to remain afloat long enough to be rescued or swim to safety.
In addition to the airbag, there is a whistle to signal for help and a compass to help you navigate back to shore if need be. After use, the airbag can be completely deflated, refolded up and repacked in its pouch. Attach a new carbon dioxide cartridge and the Kingii is ready to be used again.
FEATURES:
• Premium quality - Made in the USA.
• Light weight and compact – Smallest inflatable floatation device in the world. Not bulky like the lifejacket but small and light enough to fit in your pocket or handbag to give you peace of mind whenever you are in or around water.
