StoplockRFID Contactless Protection Pouch Purse Wallet SS5433 - Anti-Theft Signal Blocker Credit Card Key Fobs Mobile Phones,Black,192mm x 100mm x 9mm

Unfortunately, car theft is continuing to rise, and a lot of this seems to be related to keyless entry and start. While I love the convenience of this, it’s not so helpful if your car goes walkies in the night!Faraday pouches are useful tools in your arsenal to keep your car safe. For those who don’t have any experience in this area, let me explain.Keyless theft, also known as relay car theft works like this (I’m being deliberately vague as I don’t want to give anyone any tips!)1) Your car senses if the key is in close proximity and allows the doors to be opened and the car to unlock. When inside the car, the sensors detect the key inside and allows the car to be started via the start/on button.2) Say your car key is on the table in your house, or hung by the door, it’s out of that sensor area, but some nefarious person could use a highly illegal device to clone and amplify the signal which fools the car into thinking the key is close and will unlock the doors, the same equipment will also fool it into thinking the key is inside and allow the car to be started. They can then drive away in your pride and joy.Some cars now use sleeping keys that detect if they are not being moved and turn off. But until they turn off, your car is still vulnerable. If your keys don’t have this function, your car is vulnerable. For many years, manufacturers and police ignored the problem, now it’s well known that this problem is becoming an epidemic.The pouch acts as a blocking device, making sure the signal doesn’t escape the pouch and therefore can’t be cloned or boosted. Keeping your car safe. Now, faraday pouches rely on the user actually using them, and they do wear out over time. So occasionally put your keys in and try to enter the car using your keyless entry and see if they are still working as they should.I brought these ones as they are large enough to fit a car key and a few other keys on the same key ring. They are also of a reputable brand that do stand behind their warranty. They are durable, feel of good quality and haven’t fallen apart over time, like a lot of the no name ones have.They fit the one key for a Citroen C5 Aircross, a Mazda CX30 or a Seat Ateca, all keys that are between little larger than average and chuffing huge respectively.Now I can’t tell you if someone has tried to steal my car, my wife’s or my sons as of yet, but I can say that 3 cars in the last 6 months have gone missing from my street, all with keyless entry. Ours are still on the drive, so If they have tried, it didn’t work!Overall, considering the size, price, quality and their function, I’d highly recommend them.Thank you for reading and have a good New Year.

i have now received the item thank you

We did the test ie try starting the car with key in touch - nada! Great. Easy to carry around and otherwise having at home. I expect it to last a couple of years if not more. Good value, easy to buy solution.

Great product, appearance was great looks like a purse or wallet. We used it as a wallet on holiday.Great security. Great size for putting in a bag or a pocket, not very thick when we had credit card or cash inside. Will hold a iPhone pro inside ok, anything bigger no chance to tight to close. It has Velcro strip to close.

Only have it for a month so far so good

Excellent quality and would like to update that this is still working two years on. Very happy with purchase and recommended to father and a good friend. Great size for two sets of BMW keys and good value for money.

7 months ago, on Jan 27th 2022 I left this review: So far, it's working. Gives us peace of mind.It’s now sept 2nd 2022 and it’s no longer working! Locked the car, put the key fully inside the correct section, fully closed the pouch - and the car unlocked itself! Tested several times and it’s definitely not functioning. So it’s useless!

Bought this to protect the keys for my new keyless entry car and it works absolutely fine.
