This case is rock solid (like other Pelican cases). kzread.infoUgkx3jMFPw9QX_Iu4DNcjW-t9AZ4_iNhJzhE I paired it with the Master Lock 140T set of padlocks. The US Airways ticket agent that checked the case was impressed by how completely the latches were secured. The case has layers of removable foam cubes that can be easily adapted to the contents of the case and keep everything secure. After declaring its contents to the ticket agent, I was allowed to put this case in other checked luggage. Due to its size and black color, this helped insure that it wasn't misplaced by a baggage handler. TSA was (apparently) happy with the packaging as well. If you plan on flying with more than one of the main items, I would recommend buying a larger Pelican case and just transport the case as another piece of checked luggage.
I just ordered one of these. I’m sure all the lock experts can get into it or hack it no problem but I could care less. I just need it to be next to my bed, easily accessible and keep my kids out. Check, check and check.

If I hear something and need my gun in a quiet house in the middle of the night, these clicks let anyone who may be there know that I'm awake. Make it with soft push buttons and this thing is perfect. Until then, this safe will be re-purposed.

Finally a recommended KZread video that is on point! This safe looks perfect for what I have been wanting to mount between my bed and nightstand.

While I do absolutely love the button idea I would never recommend that for a household with young or irresponsible children. It would just be a disaster waiting to happen. I would just stick to the fingerprint for a quick access in that situation. But like I said for anyone living with responsible beings or by themselves this is an awesome idea and has me wanting to buy one right now.

Price.
We coughed up and bought 2. One for him, one for me. Are they more spendy than 100$ wonder from cabelas? Yep. No we didnt do biometric, too many isses for me to risk it not working when i need it. But the fit and finish, the thought that went into it for the limited spots we could mount made it best option for us. Besides, as instructors we need to eat our own oatmeal with making sure we comply with laws and best practices before telling students what they need to do. The flexibility of opening options is what sold me, the mounting challenges were hubbys selling point. And the assembly is really, really well built. Everyone has to decide what works best for their life, their home, their risk level regrding the securing firearms.

Sterling Forest 🤦♂️Only a person who really doesn’t know anything about guns would ever ask such an incredibly stupid question... There are countless guns chambered in 9mm and .45 ACP that would fit in that safe just fine.. But there are also tons of guns chambered in both 9mm and .45 ACP that would NOT fit in that safe.. There are some guns chambered in .45 ACP (like the smith and wesson m&p shield in .45 ACP) that are MUCH smaller than some guns chambered in 9mm (like the sig sauer P226 or beretta 92fs). Additionally, there is no cartridge called .45 Ruger.. There is .45 ACP or .45 Long Colt, but .45 Ruger simply isn’t a thing.. Now, there are Ruger’s that are chambered in .45 ACP, but knowing it’s a Ruger and .chambered in .45 ACP still isn’t enough information for anyone to determine whether the gun you are talking about will fit in that safe or not..

Love everything about it except for the 3-month battery life. I was expecting you to say “3 years” not 3 months. I just don’t see the average person remembering to charge it once every three months. I picture people forgetting to charge it, then when they actually need it quickly the battery’s dead and they have to go find their key. If the battery lasted at least one year this would be perfect. Does the safe send a reminder to your smart phone when the battery is low and needs to be charged?

Hey! The rechargeable lithium-ion battery will last months on a single charge. You can simply plug in to charge up or keep plugged in continuously using the included charging kit for peace of mind. In the event, your battery is running low the safe will alert you and the Vaultek Bluetooth smartphone app will indicate a low battery. Additionally, upgraded lithium-ion batteries and a powerpack are available to extend the battery life.
maybe you could suggest to them to change the color of the light for night vision....
Returned all 3 of my Vaultek safes. The Lifepod can have its code reprogrammed with the case closed. I returned the slider because entering the code too quickly causes it not to open, and I returned the MX due to the fact that the finterprint reader hardly ever worked and the twin pistol rack and shelf were different than advertised.
@anthonyegreene

Lifepod docs say that the program button (which is inside) will not work if safe is locked. Apparently it must be open and unlocked to reprogram. Is that wrong?
be nice to Vaultek offer stackable skins of this pistol safe, example: add 2 skins thats slightly larger than the steel gauge thats on the safe, and being able to get the safe up to 1/4" thick with still having the capacity to use its features like the buttons, and charging usb port. I would sell the stackable skins for $35-$40 a piece ...because you know what they say about steel, the more material the greater the protection, and its all about offering options too on an already great device like this.

Its intended to be hidden or mounted underneath a surface... yet they put all of the controls on the top.. so if your wireless controls fail you can’t get to your gun unless you unmount it... or unless you mount it where the top isn’t obstructed.

He spent about 5 seconds talking about the fingerprint scanner, and how he doesn't trust them. Fair enough, but did you test this one? If so, did it fail you due to body oil on your hands, and how long does it take using that to pop open? My apple MacBook scanner is instant and has never delayed, so the technology is there for sure. That feature is one of the most important parts about this safe and it wasn't explored in this video at all. Finally, that key is super cool, but if a kid gets their hands on it....
My only gripe about it is the price. Isn't it mass produced already? Why is it so expensive? It's mass produce maybe you can cut the price in half and I'm sure you guys still make profit. I'm thinking of buying about 5 but the price $300 for just one makes it unaffordable.
Can you turn the foam around so the gun faces the otherway? What about mounting to bedframe?

Can you mount on either side? You did it on the right side under your computer but I'm left handed and I sleep on the left side on my bed with my wife (if you're at the feet looking at the head). So if I'm laying in bed I'd roll to my right side and reach with my left hand for the side of my night stand. This would require the mount to be on the left side of the safe or id have to reach accross my night stand to the far side. Kind of a blind reach if you're trackin with me....can you do both sides or just the right?
Can this be mounted under a desk horizontally?
How or where can I buy the safe? Can it be purchased on Amazon?
I am wanting to order one but my nightstand gun is a P320X with a red dot and a flashlight. I dont see any pics or videos of this slider safe with optics on the gun. Has anyone tried to make it work? Otherwise I will get the VTi series for on top of the nightstand.
I don't know about the smart key option. Seems unsafe. What's the difference between leaving that out and leaving out an actual key, hidden or not? I'll bet there are some legal issues connected to this.

I have two of their portable safes one for the car and one for the house. I live alone in an apartment on the third floor so I can afford to wait until Christmas when it goes on sale. My gun stays in the holster when I am home and on my person. Only time I put it in the safe is when other people stay the night.
Very cool safe. Good review. Generally I view these as devices that merely can keep kids away from guns. Any thief can just grab this and take it or pry it open pretty fast. All safes even the huge ones you can defeat. Some really fast in seconds. Others might take a few minutes. They are all defeatable unless you spend 10's of thousands of dollars putting a bank size vault with inches of steel. If you don't have kids or friendly visitors in your residence that you worry might stumble upon your gun than a gun safe is nothing more than a small delay for any determined thief. Crowbars, hammers, magnets and grinding wheels do fast work. Checkout all the youtube videos on busting safes open.

That said this safe and others like it are a gun safety kind of safe that keeps out curious or meddling hand. It's not going to stop a thief that came only for your gun. It is effective against the thief that came for your TV and doesn't know there's a gun or anything worth spending time on inside (assuming the safe is affixed and unremoveable).

Totally agree about safes being more of a deterrent than actual “vault-like security.” I think it’s best to do our research and find a nice balance of fire protection, along with ease of use and durability for ones individual or family needs. Protecting important documents, photos and ammunition are all something to consider when purchasing a safe. I don’t think anyone wants their stockpile of ammo to catch fire😳🤯- I always find “safe” videos and their comment section to be interesting and fun. learning and meeting likeminded folk! Good points. Cheers to all✌️
Do you think this safe would hold a colt Python? if you are not sure, what is the easiest way to verify that?
I see a few people state the price point is to high..... $300 is pretty cheap in my mind for the quality and safety features especially with young children around. Think about buying a Starbucks coffee on a daily basis, in two months you could pay for it. I'm not made of money, but I wouldn't hesitate to lay out 3 bills for peace of mind for my family and their safety.
If your pistol has an RMR will it fit in the safe?
The link you have takes you to a blueprint style diagram of the safe however it does not take you to their website..... 🙄 I was acting on an impulse and was set to buy a couple of these safes however I got thrown off track because of the inability to find the add to shopping cart area anywhere on the page 😡 😁. 😂 😅 😀 thanks for sharing this video man I'm going to buy a couple of these one for home and one for my vehicle..

SLIDER Series is excellent for vehicle mounting! It introduces a new mounting system and includes a mounting plate. It can be configured for four point wall mounting, vertical stud mounting or unlimited options using VESA standard fitment (great for VEHICLE mounting). The proprietary design allows for UNLIMITED mounting options. Snap and secure your safe to either side and removes in seconds. Learn more at vaulteksafe.com.
What size guns will it take?
Doesn’t seem very secure. The mounting bracket they picture on their website look like you can take off the safe from bracket without detaching from wall - which is also a problem for me. I like the orientation very much.
Will it hold a gun with a sight?
