I’ll begin by saying I am brand new to all of this.
I have been aware of the technology and some of its uses for a few years but in saying that I have no real understanding of it or how it works so I am finding everything quite confusing.
I need a bit of help choosing the right chip for me.
The main use I want it for is to be able to unlock the door to my house, if I can do other things with it such as store passwords, link to my youtube/tiktok accounts etc that would be great too but they are secondary to unlocking the door to my house.
I have not purchased a lock yet as I want to be certain the chip and lock I select are compatible.
Can anyone recommend a chip/lock combination that will 100% work together.
I apologise as I’m sure its been asked a bunch of times but I couldn’t quite find what I was after.
Depending on where you live, I can recommend the DOM ELS Pro in combination with a xEM or NExT or anything else that is LF. I use it with my xEM and it works perfectly.
Other than that, we have a cool spreadsheet with tons of products and the chips that work with them, hope you’ll find what you’re looking for
I have a NExT and I use the LF side to get in my room which has a METechs MID300 door handle. I use the HF side to share stuff like my website or a vcard (contact card that iphone and android accepts). The METechs MID300 has a plastic cover over the antenna which is too thick to read the NExT so I had to remove it, reposition the antenna, and then cover the open area with a thin sticker. This is fun for indoors but would not be useful outside. Check the compatibility matrix for other door handles. I think I remember seeing a better one but it was kinda pricey
Unfortunately I deleted the pictures from when I took it apart. Sometimes I think the sticker is too thick so you will probably have a tough time getting the plastic thin enough. The sticker was helpful because I was able to pull the antenna out further and stick it to the back of the sticker so it was as close to the outside as possible
If there is a link to a thread that would be great, as I try to link those so people can see the discussion around it for the bigger picture and can set expectations accordingly
I got edit access I have unifi access at home and a number of implants and cards, so I filled out as much as I could in a quick test and check. As I gain more random cards or implants I will continue to update as I go.
I learned the tesla key card can work on unifi access, the more you know!
