In an emergency, time is of the essence and quick communication is key. That urgency is why Smart Home Protection LLC created Timeli, which debuted at CES 2026. The compact device combines a slew of components critical during a calamity: a flashlight, video recording, an alarm, GPS location service and instant two-way communication with emergency dispatch.
Whether you're a wilderness buff, a runner who wants to feel less vulnerable while running or a parent seeking peace of mind, this device hopes to provide security wherever and whenever.
How does Timeli work?
Timeli's GPS security flashlight debuted at CES 2026.
The device has two buttons. The circle power button activates the flashlight and video recording, while the red triangle is the SOS button. The SOS buttons powers on a loud alarm and connects users to a monitoring center, which determines if emergency services are needed. The video and the GPS coordinates from Timeli are also streamed directly to dispatch.
If you don't want to carry the device in your hand, you can also attach it to a backpack or purse.
"Traditional tools are reactive and limited," David Szekeres, founder of Smart Home Protection LLC, said in a press release. "We designed Timeli to deter threats instantly, capture critical evidence and connect people to professional help in real time."
How much does Timeli cost?
The Timeli device and a 12-month subscription can be pre-ordered today for $249. After the first year, the subscription for the monitoring and dispatch service will be $9.95 a month.
