VAULTEKLifePod 20 Full-Size Lockable Weatherproof Case with Built-in Lock, Steel Security Cable, & TSA Handgun Case or Car Safe, Portable Travel Pistol Safe/Covert Black

This thing is a MUST HAVE. The quality is impeccable - sturdy, solid, hefty, and strong. It looks cool, and is super easy to use. This case changed how I store and transport my guns.It is worth every penny. Honestly, I think it is very fairly priced. Definitely recommend. Highly recommend.

Fits my XD9 from grip to tip along with 2 mags. Seals up nice and tight. Seems pretty durable and tough. I’ve never dropped or abused it but so far it’s good.Con: I dislike the type of battery it requires. The old school 9v rectangular batteries. Harder to come by. And it seems to drain quite quickPro: seals up nicely. In fact, it creates an incredibly tight vacuum seal with altitude changes. I typically need a flat head to break the seal when coming back down from the mountain range to my area.

I had purchased the standard LifePod and it works great for up to a Glock 19 with [2] extra magazines.Saw they had a slightly larger LifePod 2.0 with an internal organizer tray and liked the idea of that so I ordered one.They are both nice cases. The LifePod 2.0 will not hold a single stack 9mm or a 1911 and allow you to use the included organizer tray unless you take out all of the bottom foam and then you have to press it closed which slightly flexes the organizer tray.It is still a nice case but don't count on being able to use the organizer tray.I tried it with a S&W Shield +, Glock 17, 19, 43X, 48 and a Colt Government model 1911.There might be a slimmer single stack 9mm which will work with the organizer but none of mine would.The standard LifePod works fine for my uses as a Glock 19 with a Streamlight TLR-7A and [2] extra mags would be my normal load out for it. I had to remove [1] piece of bottom foam for it to work.

Highly recommend.Bio access pretty consistent.With wet it cold, the combo works easy and quick too.This is not keeps belongings safe when you are not around and relatively easy to access urgently

UPDATE:it turns out that because the sticker inside the box was UPSIDE DOWN, I misread it. The directions for the "on" state for the key lock were next to the OFF position (UX mistake #1) and the sticker was positioned so that I would have to be INSIDE the box to read it right-side-up, and therefore it was UPSIDE DOWN for anyone looking into the box from above (UX mistake #2) and therefore hard to read, and easy to misread. I'm raising my review to 4 stars. There is nothing PHYSICALLY wrong with the product, just the UX. This wasted a lot of my time, which could have been saved if they had at least positioned the sticker so that I could read it, and preferably had also designed it so that the directions for the ON position were NEXT TO the ON position instead of the OFF position.I will probably relent and raise my review to 5 stars, since Amazon won't let me give it 4.5, because there are so many great things about this product, but at the moment I'm just slightly annoyed with the bad UX design.ORIGINAL:I was really looking forward to getting this, as it seemed to be the perfect balance of various trade-offs. And the portability and floating feature seemed like an awesome bonus. But it has a fatal flaw—at least the one I received, which may not be indicative of every single unit.It is a minor annoyance that there was no battery included. Okay, fine, they want to keep the cost down. Whatever. After a trip to Costco for 9 volt batteries, I was ready to set up my box.The unit came with the key lock disabled. Some people may prefer to risk losing their keys instead of risking the possibility that a thief may pick the lock, so this is a good feature. After installing the battery, the next thing I did was enable the key lock, since I'm less worried about the lock being picked than about me losing the ability to quickly access the contents of my box.Then I set up a code, and tried it out. I wanted to make sure I could unlock it with both the code and with the key. The code worked fine, but the key, not so much. I could not turn the key all the way to unlock it. I felt that if I applied any more torque to the key I would break it off in the lock, which would not do anyone any good.So I tried fiddling with the setting for turning the key lock on and off. I dialed that back part way so it was not fully in the "on" position, and suddenly I could turn the key all the way so as to unlock it. However, now I could not remove the key.So there is basically no way of making the key work. It's either impossible to unlock the unit with the key, or it's impossible to get the key in and out (in which case it's still impossible to unlock the unit because you can't put the key in).So the physical lock is junk on mine. This is presumably a manufacturing defect, but I would not trust that this defect doesn't appear on any other units. If the quality control is inconsistent enough to allow such an extreme defect in THIS unit, it is most likely allowing it in others as well.One other small nit: there are only 4 possible numerals for your PIN. But that's really only a small inconvenience in that it limits the possible PINs you can choose. As long as you have an 8-digit PIN this is still quite secure (65 thousand possibilities for an attacker to try, if I did the math correctly), so make sure you use all 8 allowed digits if that degree of security is important to you.So, in summary, if you don't care about the physical key, then for you this is a 5-star product.

This is my third Lifepod but my first Lifepod 2.0. The larger size is great; I can fit my loaded C2 w/ Light & Optic in a Tenicor holster w/ 4 extra mags and still have a little bit of room to easily take out my gun quickly if needed. I also love that the included steel security cable is longer than the ones that come with the Lifepod 1.0s. My only little complain is the keypad only works if you touch the numbers in the center exactly. So if you are closer to the corners of the keys, your press won’t register.

Great buy

I bought this to be a permanent secure storage box in my car. It fits perfectly under the driver's seat and is secured with the included cable to the seat mount. I used a lithium 9v battery since that is better for handling the high temperatures in the car in the Georgia summers.
