I can’t speak for much, but I use my NExTT5577 to emulate an H10301 card with no problem. I found some information on this site:
The T5577 chip is an emulator chip that can be programmed to the most common ID card formats in use today. The T5577 can emulate cards that make use of the standard 26-bit Wiegand format. This format is most commonly used with H10301 cards. The T5577 can emulate the H10301 card format as well as the following 26-bit card formats:
HID 1326
ProxCard II
Indala
EM Cards
Kantech XSF
AWID 26-bit, 34-bit, 37-bit and 50-bit
Keri MS
Doorking DK Prox
H10302
Doorking DK Prox
DSX D10202
Farpointe Pyramid
Keyscan C15001 36-bit
Man I feel that. I’ve used the same guy twice now, and even though he’s 3+ hours away, I plan to keep going back because it doesn’t take any extra social energy that finding someone new would.
quick edit - there’s nothing wrong with making a whole day out of it, if you find somewhere that’s a little ways off, visit the surrounding city. When I went back for my Titan, I took my friend and we hit up some of the trails while we were there. I’m not advocating for a 6+ hour one-way trip but there’s folks here on the forum that have taken short plane trips to other european countries and back just for an install.
Yep, with social engineering it is far easier for you to “sell your story” in person, and its far easier for them to turn you down via phonecall or via messaging.
Not to say it cant be done remotely, but just easier in person.
Arm youself with knowledge, which you seem to be quite adept at doing.
Heres some more info for you and your potential installer that may be of use
Im assuming VA is Virginia, so south of Pensylvania.?
Not sure if thats too far for you.
I know where most of your states are but the scale of distance throws me…
Philly is just up the road a little way isn’t it?
Out your driveway and turn left…
Brian Decker in Brooklyn, (no contact details, but he does come highly recommended)
if thats easier for you to fly to NY
Anyway, hope that helps
Non American with Non American geographical knowledge shutting up now
I appreciate your reply. I’ve seen your posts, and I’ve read/watched those. I appreciate you sharing your wisdom.
VA (Virginia) is south of PA (Pennsylvania) by about a 4.5-6 hour drive depending on location.
Philly to me is ~420 km / 260 mi, about a 4.5 hour journey each way. So it’s probably flyable, but not optimally drive-able. ( Is it safe to fly right after getting implanted? )
This is gonna sound very weird to some, but I’m trying to NOT use any Social Engineering techniques/tools/tactics in this search, as part of those watching don’t yet have enough wisdom to use such techniques/tools/tactics in a knowingly ethical way. (too much has rubbed off accidentally…so now I’m a LOT more careful about what I show.)
maybe wait until AFTER you have had a Philly cheese steak but before getting shot.
But in all seriousness, flying after an implant should be no problem at all.
However, whilst we are on the topic
Everybody is different, so its still worth talking about vasovagal response, it more of an event during than and after, but do consider staying hydrated and what you eat before and after.
Heres a recent discussion (part way through)
not weird at all; and it wont be required at all if you go to a known installer like Brian Decker or @Satur9’s option.
If you get stuck with setup / install, just sing out
i fell like you dont need the links (you probably have them bookmarked)
It sounds like you are looking at the xMagic, which it a great first implant, just like the NExT, it just depends on your use case.
If you cant stretch to it financially, both with have you covered for most things RFID related.
This, Personally, I would reccomend a FlexM1
(i will link a relevant thread at the end)
I know the flex can be intimidating, but they really are worth it, and I fear you would be disappointed with the success rates on hotel doors.
A NExT would complement it nicely, if you were considering an xSeries with an LF chip.
Highly unlikely if it is an X-Series - Which comes preinstalled in a sterilized syringe. The needle interferes with the signal. I was unable to get a read from my Spark 2 or NExT prior to installation. You may even have a little difficulty AFTER installation as your install site swells. Your body protects injury with fluid, which is also pretty decent at blocking RF. Don’t be discouraged.
Damn good question. That will depend on how your body reacts to the install. Different people have had different experiences.
For me, it took a couple of days. Fortunately, I had read the same thing from others on DT forum, so I didn’t even try to remove my bandages for the first couple of days. Not worth the risk of infection if I wasn’t going to get a read. Who knows. I might have been able to get a read on the first day.
You’ll also want to do some playing with it. learn you implant. Mine actually migrated a bit in my hand to a spot that sits well (both hands - webbing between thumb and finger). I find that if I orient my phone just right, I can get a read, but still don’t after a year with a bad angle. I use my NExT to start my car, and if the angle is wrong when I align with the antenna, I don’t get a read.
Just like any part of your body, the more you play with it, the more you’ll learn it - I bet you can close your eyes and still stick your finger up your nose!
I had to wait about 2 weeks to get reliable reads. I could occasionally get a read at about 4-5 days in but I’d avoid trying to use it for 2 weeks so it can fully encapsulate and heal. I would just avoid playing with it for a week or two because every time you mess with it you break up the scar tissue.
I have thin, unreactive skin so there’s no swelling to speak of. I get a read immediately but a lot of people here have to wait up to a couple of weeks. Just the luck of the draw.
I’ve been unsuccessful to find an installer (even a few from the list) that responds to email (a requirement, for reasons that, if you think about disabilities for a hot minute, should be immediately obvious. sigh )
With that, I thank this community for all the knowledge it’s given me, and the opportunity to learn more about RFID.
I ordered a Magic Ring 2.0, and we’ll see how that goes.
If there is a list of bio-hacking events that do implants (that Amal would bless as installers) I’d love any information people may have. Maybe in 2024 I’ll be successful in finding an installer, but for now, I think, sadly, my journey ends.
I found my installer by searching Instagram for the “subdermal” hashtag and flipping through the results until someone 2 hours from me showed up. There are a lot of piercing places that aren’t comfortable with not being able to sterilize the thing themselves to control their liability, so looking for someone who’s familiar with less mainstream body mods is a good bet. It might take a little while to find someone, and you might have to attend a body mod show/convention to see who’s out there (many of them don’t advertise outside of the body mod community).
Google body modification and your geographical area; see if anyone in r/bodymods knows practitioners in your area; google “tattoo expo” and see what’s nearby. You’re close enough to some metro areas that you ought to be able to find something.
This was my hang-up too. Turns out I know several people who work in the medical field, and many people were interested in what I was wanting. I ended up asking an ER Nurse friend of mine if they would be comfortable doing my install. They studied the installation guide from DT and said that they could do it. I had my PCP who is a nurse practitioner lined up as back-up, but we were going to have a weird time trying to figure out how to code the office visit. LOL.
Anyway, my nurse friend did an amazing job installing my 2 implants and I’m very happy. If you know anyone who works in the medical field, you might have more connections interested in body modification and functionality enhancements than you think.
Health care professionals are a bit weird here (on other, completely normal issues) so not sure how they’d take it, but I’ll take the advice and start asking.
I have the NExT in my left hand which I use instead of my badge at work for secure doors (LF side). The HF side does two functions for me. The keyboard Wedge reader sees the UID of the chip and I use that along with a couple of typed characters as my domain password. That alone has improved the quality of my life. Not having to type a complex password 10 billion times a day is awesome. And I have to admit that it is an amazing feeling to cyborg-swipe my hand over a reader to log into company systems and get through secure doors. I’m using the data storage ability of the NExT to store a unit-link that has all my personal contact information that I would want to share with people on the fly. Scanning my hand is way easier than manually exchanging cell numbers or social media information for either personal contact or the rock climbing group that I run.
My right hand has an xSIID in it. That one is for play. My partner and I have fun programming things into me and making me light up.
I’m considering getting a flexEM to make badging through doors easier and also so I can try to build some home applications with the Access Kit. I also think want to get an xG3. It would be so cool not to lose screws and other small parts while I’m doing my job as a engineer for a computer hardware company.
