Terrific idea for a TSA lock! You know if TSA opened it and TSA must lock it again to remove their key!

YES! TSA cant forget to re-lock your bag after inspection!! They must lock the shackle or they cant remove their key! So now I know when they have opened my bag even if they haven't left a notice saying that they have done so. What an awesome idea for a lock. This lock is so much sturdier than my other TSA locks which need a key. It fits easily into the opening made for it on my suitcases. I prefer combination locks because I have still never figured out where to keep those tiny keys and not lose them. I can easily remember my three digit combination and the numbers are large enough to read easily.

The lock comes with simple instructions on how to set your own easy to remember combination in 5 easy steps. It took me about two minutes to follow the directions, set my combination, and make sure it was working properly. I also like that there is a lifetime warranty if the lock is damaged or broken!

This is my new go-to lock. I will need more because I want to secure my computer bag and other suitcases whenever I take them somewhere. This is also great for a gym bag or locker, school locker, keeping medicines locked up safely, or even keeping a diary safe from peering eyes!

I was very happy to be given the opportunity to review this TSA combination lock and received it at a discount for my fair and impartial opinion.

Got one for myself and my wife. Great way to protect your keys and keep them from making noise in your pocket/purse. Airport security often double takes at it (because it looks like a pocket knife) but they don't have an issue with it after you show them.

TSA approved locks made of sturdy steel will dissuade theft. Nice product.

I recently bought these as pick pocket prevention for my backpack on travel. I don't know if it ever was a real threat, but I've discovered my backpack hanging open after I've made my way through an airport before.  At very least these ensure that my backpack stays closed when I want it to.

I really liked the way that this version of the Keylock Carabiner work for this purpose.  I clipped each side to a zipper pull an voila, it is a little device that is unfamiliar enough to cause a pickpocket to fuss more allowing better detection and likely would let you be passed by as a target.  In a country where I stood out like a sore thumb, I was grateful for this peace of mind.

If I really wanted to I would engage the lock as well.  After a little bit of use it was really natural to unclip one half of the carabiner before opening the zipper.  The locks even cause me to fuss with them for a moment.

I also love the way they look on my backpack.  The stainless steel and black locks looks nice on my grey and black bag.  Thanks Nite Ize for another great innovation!

This is cool! Don't put it on an airplane bag that you plan on taking. They just might remove the bag. HAHA! It's a cool keyring for sure.

TSA opened the locks on our cases and could not get them locked back. The red button saying TSA opened the locks did not go back to the flush position. First time using them and they broke.

Purchased this for a recent travel where I had to check my bag.  My bag was searched by TSA both directions.  While the lock was easy for them to access my bag, and no damage was done, the little button did NOT pop up to indicate the lock had been opened.  The only reason I know TSA searched my bag was due to them leaving a notification in my suitcase.

Looks fine and seems to work as descrivbed.  Wish I had read all of the TSA warnings about their key codes being hacked before I purchased.  At least in hotel rooms maybe it is still a good security item to have.  I'm hoping maids don't have as much where-with-all as do airport baggage handlers.

What a waste of money! I bought 3 of these for our trip last week. 2 are now gone. Don't bother buying these as the TSA will cut them off and throw them away any way. I tried filing a complaint but it seems like a lot of hassle and will probably land me on some kind of blacklist somewhere over the sake of 10 bucks give or take. I thought surely using a TSA Approved lock would be fine. Nooooooo. Cut them off and tossed them away with zero regard. Just glad I didn't opt for the more expensive version.

Never trust your luggage to a TSA lock. These seals are comparable to another brand (red) we used until we ran out. The shafts are thin enough to go through the small zipper attachments, not just the pulltabs. You know instantly if your luggage has been opened in transit. And if it has, go immediately to TSA to report it -- without opening in it yourself! The seal often keeps crooks and drug smugglers from targeting your luggage. A word to the wise....

One of the few locks that let you know when your bags have been "inspected" by the TSA -- a FANTASTIC feature.

Very nice locks, but the TSA will still cut them off. At least at ATL they will. But that's... ATL.

It is an easy lock for TSA to open and close during their revisions.

Unfortunately, I have actually had the locks stolen by people at the airport, once they get checked in... It seems that in some airports, the personnel has the ability to open the locks, but not for legitimate screening, but to remove them from your luggage.

There is hardly any information online that supports techincal issues with this device, and the services that cast, such as HBOGo and Youtube do not have a help section on it...
The official chromecast website also has very superficial information on the device.

We like the red dot function which indicates you if it has been opened by TSA. It seems to have even better quality than the equivalent Master lock. Easy to set the combination and available in several color options. We highly recommend this lock to serious intercontinental travellers.

Terrible! I took this on a flight and went to open it up, well, well , well the key would not unlock it. Had to take it to a locksmith while on my vacation!

The locks work well and I was easily able to change the combination.  I am traveling to Europe at the end of this month, and I'm anxious to see if baggage inspectors actually use their master key to unlock the locks or just go ahead and cut the locks.  If they don't cut the locks, my rating will up to 5 stars!

You could lock up a jet airliner with this and it would be safe and secure.!!
