Padlock Key/Nfc

Ha glad you bought it.

No its specifically works with the NExT.
I trust Digiwell there, Patrick uses the lock himself probably. But still, I’m waiting for Roscos review.

I have a Wilka lock on my door. It uses a CR2 battery, their site says 1 year but mines been in there for 2

The programming card I got is a classic 1k which I cloned for a backup.

If it works great, I was just advising cation as I only
Narrowly caught that a few nfc locks had no onboard power

Yeah I figured it was a generic card that was certainly not worth 35 euros, and probably not needed. Kind of like the master programming cards that came with my BeCode AIR+. But you never know, and I’m a sucker. So there, I ordered it too.

The beauty of those claims on the Digiwell website is, if they turn out to be false, I can ask my money back.

I was just wondering, could I have sent you the dump of my card. The site says that you only need to buy it once.

Well I see that there are many of us looking for one, @amal how about creating one as a new project?

Yes, you could have sent me a dump of your card, it would have worked. And JennyMcLane could’ve gotten me a discount with her affiliate link too. But that would have turned it into a rational purchase with some thought put into saving money, which means I wouldn’t even have purchased the lock in the first place.

Because really, even discounted at 200 euros all told, the product is totally stupid: it’s a 10 euro el-cheapo padlock mated to a pointlessly expensive RFID plug.

In short: don’t rub it in willya? :slight_smile:

Matter of fact, I wonder if I could install the plug in a nicer padlock. Hmm…

All Assa Aperio products are outrageously expensive - when you can get your hands on them. The giveaway is that the few stockists that offer them cater to building companies and don’t publish the prices on their websites.

Not to mention, this padlock looks like it could be forced open with a pocket knife by Stephen Hawking.

Just digging around,

This one comes in 125 and 13.56 flavors… 14443a

No idea how to order yet

Edit…
are… those Phillips screws holding it together?

The thing with RFID / NFC locks (padlocks or otherwise) is, if nobody else has tried them before, it’s a bit of a gamble whether they work with implants or not. Less so with flex implants of course, but performances can be iffy even with narrow flexies.

The only model I ordered sight unseen was the U&Z CX2172 because I knew with 100% certainty it would work with my (then not-yet-dead) flexNExT. Fortunately, it also works with the flexDF / flexNT, because the flexNExT sure isn’t an option anymore. But that was lucky.

The fact that Digiwell lists that stupidly expensive Wilka padlock as working with implants is the only reason why I let my wallet be raped: I paid extra to be sure it would work essentially - and at that price, it’d better work :slight_smile:

And he is dead. That is pretty bad. :rofl:

We just need to add that to the Deadbolt thread

Same “electronics”, different form factor

Please talk me out of giving the egee smart touch GEN 2 a chance

I see that gen 4 won’t pick up an x series, but devs video for all his problems with it, does show that an implant will work

I have read every Amazon review, and 50% incorrectly think it’s charges via usb, and 75% are annoyed about the Bluetooth app being garbage

Neither apply to me,

Dev takes issue with uid authorization, which correct is a flaw… is fine for my gym locker

I keep convincing myself that it’s mostly operator error

It is, the operator made an error buying it.

Easy:

1/ You have a 4th gen device which is crap. Normally devices get better as they evolve, not worse.
2/ Deviant Ollam showed what a terrible product the 1st generation of that padlock was
3/ You have read reviews that say the BT functionality is garbage. Rarely does a good product have just one crappy feature. Most likely, it’s a crappy product through and through.

Need I say more?

The signs aren’t good. Heed the signs.

And this? :thinking:

Looks like it is power harvesting from the nfc so will need an active tag / phone. They don’t mention tags at all.
