Whoa! August 26, 2010 Robert W. Lennox (Rochester, NY United States) I say $5.95 to ship a $10 item is a bit steep for my wallet. I'd suggest Amazon carry this item themselves so that buyers don't get ripped off by this kind of thing.
WIre hook tough some times May 28, 2010 Xmedic (Merced, California) If your fingers are hurting it is tough to unhook the cable after the combo is put in. Other than that, works!
Flimsy piece of junk April 28, 2010 Dan Streck (Bend, Oregon) Wow. I had a couple of TSA-access Pelilocks for years that were pretty sturdy. Unfortunately, one of them didn't make the last flight home with me (hey, thanks TSA!). Those original locks seem to be unavailable now - I searched everywhere including ebay. So I thought I'd try these. Obviously, any TSA accessible locks are going to provide only marginal security, but these seem to me to be exceptionally flimsy. I don't know what the alternative is, but you'd probably find a better lock at Walmart.
a little switcharoo April 10, 2010 Mapache (Fort Lauderdale FL USA) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Pelican would include an order form inside of new Pelican Cases for silica gel and for Pelilocks with the same catalogue number of 1506TSA. I bought a number of the locks which were black, 4 combo locks with a solid hasp...they have substituted these cable 3 combo locks which are much easier for someone to access. The cables can be easily cut with a leatherman or wire cutters and a 3 digit combo is significantly less effective than the prior 4 digit. Better off buying a 4 digit lock but make sure the hasp is long enough if you are buying for a pelican case... the original 1506TSA locks Pelican sold were perfect.....no wonder they stopped selling them.
A Great Product for Protecting Items in Flight November 3, 2009 J. Rotunda (Alexandria, VA) I needed a pair of locks for my Pelican case which houses all my camera equipment when I'm on the road. The locks themselves are very well built and are surprisingly heavy for their size. I always feel safe knowing my camera equipment is well protected by the Pelican case and, now, the Pelican locks. The only thing I would note is that these locks do use an intertwined metal of some sort as the bolt part of the lock which works for travel; however, I'm not confident this part could withstand an easy snip with bolt cutters.
