3.0 out of 5 starsWorks as intended but limited longevity
Reviewed in Canada on June 1, 2024
The Faraday properties of the box work exactly as intended. I tested this by placing my key fob in the box and attempting to open the door of my truck. Normally if the key fob is in my pocket I can touch the door handle and truck will open but it did not do this while secure in the box.
Next I sat in the truck and attempted to start it with push to start. Again, it did not detect the key.
I found the lid to the box must be fully secure for it to function correctly as even partially ajar I was still able to get functionality out of the fob, albeit on a limited basis.
The box is stylish and roomy enough to hold multiple key fobs, as well as my wallet. After just shy of two months' use, the lid latch broke. The screws securing it stripped out of the material. I also noted the lid hinge is wearing and I don't think it will last much longer.
Overall, the box will function as intended and prevent vehicle theft when used correctly, but the aesthetics and some basic features will not last too long through normal use.
