There are a few different versions available and they ALL look identical but with a wide range of prices, you might save a couple of bucks buying somewhere else but you don’t know what you are getting until you actually have it “in hand” :wink:

125kHz EM41xx/EM4200, HID ProxCard II, and (AWID for DT version)

If you are in the market for one, get it from Dangerous Things, and here is why:-

  • We should be Supporting Dangerous Things

To be aware of:-
