"Cleveland Police have been using the Eazysearch/FriskerPro metal detector for the last seven months within the custody suite environment. The officers and staff have found the equipment easy and comfortable to use and we feel as a tool it is of great help in securing evidence, ensuring the safety of staff and detained persons. I intend to expand its use within the Custody Environment and present it to the Force to consider using in the patrol environment"
- Chief Superintendent Graham Cummings of Cleveland Police in England

"I assigned each FriskerPRO® hand worn metal detector to a different area with different amounts of prisoner traffic. One was tested in the Medical Department for prisoners coming in from the Units to see medical personnel. Officer Dupuie stated that it was great in detecting the smallest of items. The second one was assigned to the Activities Building with a very heavy population of prisoners in and out. Sgt. Creamer found the device worked very well for spot checks on prisoners. He felt this would be a useful device for security. The third detector was tested with the Movement team, and was found to be very effective. Officer Curcin found the device better to handle then the wand metal detector he presently uses. Thank you for letting us test the FriskerPRO®"
- Deputy Warden, James L. O'Farrell, Maine State Prison

"COII David Cole, security Officer in Prison Industries, conducted a fifteen (15) day trial test of the FriskerPRO® Metal Detector for our Facility. The detector (FriskerPRO®) works well on all types of metal. The unit will detect very small amounts of metal, as small as a paper clip in an inmate's pocket. The unit (FriskerPRO®) is small and light weight. It is not in the way when you pat down inmates. With this small unit you are able to feel anything else that an inmate may have on him. Overall COII Cole finds this unit to be a positive aid in pat down searches. Thank you for the opportunity of testing the FriskerPRO®"

"The FriskerPRO® is a SURVIVAL TOOL. When you put it on your hand, it (FriskerPRO®) does not prevent you from using that hand to do anything else. You can draw your weapon and fire it, you can put your hands on a suspect and make a physical arrest, you can handcuff, you can use pepper spray, you can use an impact weapon, you can do anything you can normally do with your hands with this tool (FriskerPRO®) in place and functioning. A key to it being a good product is, it (FriskerPRO®) does not tell the suspect when it is working and when it has found something. Once you have seen it work you will see what it can detect which normally you would not find. It is not cost prohibitive, we spend more money on coffee in a month than we spent on this tool. It will save your life."
- Weapons Instructor Officer Bruce Klinger, Boxford PD

"The other piece of equipment that I found very helpful was the FriskerPRO® (hand metal detector). It was a very nice thing to have when doing hasty TCP's. If we were just searching for weapons then it made the searches go by allot quicker and helped to insure that nothing slipped by. If you made sure to slide your hand up against the person, then it never missed a thing. Although you did need to make sure that your hand was in contact with the person, if it was the slightest bit away from them then it could miss some of the smaller things. It is also a piece of equipment that I think everyone should have with them no matter where they deploy. Thank you for your time to listen to what soldiers have to think about the equipment they take over there, and what works or doesn't. Thank you again"

"We measure success by how many times we don't have to use force," he says. Most of the 84 technologies on display at Mock Prison Riot were built on that principle—to preempt overwhelming force—but a few rose to the top. Here they are: FriskerPRO® (Paradigm Tactical Products). Wand metal detectors, like those used at airports, are no good in prisons—officers need both hands free. his device, which consists of little more than a 9-volt battery and a mini magnetometer, straps to the palm of your hand and vibrates when it's near metal, such as a safety pin concealed in a prisoner's mouth or a shank tucked into his sock."
- Captain Carl Sims, an intense Air Force Special Ops man turned prison tactical unit commander.

"One was in a corrections facility, where after being examined by numerous Special Operations Group people a handcuff key was found inside a handcuff and shackled individual's mouth, along his cheek wall in front of his teeth. The SOG went in, they made him open his mouth after the FriskerPRO® was used applying it to the outside of his cheek on his cheek wall, it (FriskerPRO®) did in fact go off. They opened his mouth forcefully and they found a sawed off handcuff key."
-Retired LA County Deputy Sheriffs Jim Marr

"It is imperative never to be deviated from a thorough pat down no matter the age, sex or clothing of a subject as shown in the pat down of a young man wearing baggy pants. A cursory pat down by Cincinnati officers missed the gun secreted between his legs in the pants which led to a shoot out in which, amazingly, no one was wounded. The results could have been vastly different for the subject and the officers involved. Your department may wish to check out the FriskerPRO® to assist in pat downs. It is a metal detector that an officer literally wears on his/her hand. It keeps hands and fingers free to search the subject using academy approved techniques. You can learn more about the FriskerPRO® on our website www.lineofduty.com."
