Safe with Finger Print Lock
January 24, 2008
A safe can be a real pain when you want to open it up. The normal method is to use the combination lock with so many turns to the left and right, and then use a key after that. This latest safe uses biometric technology to keep your valuables safe. To open the safe you just swipe your finger across a sensor and it opens up for you.
It weighs 29 lbs (so it isn’t the most heavy of safes… ie, it could be picked up and run away with). But, it does provide fairly good protection to keep some things safe and out of the reach of others. The finger print safe costs $399.95 and is available from GadgetUniverse.
