Option two: Shower with you gun.

Option three: Make your kids sit in the bathroom while you shower.

As you recognized, it's perfect for your intended purpose. I wouldn't leave on vacation with your sr locked up and cable locked to a bed post and feel safe with it home alone.

Ha, actually thought about that but the humidity!

Just realized Sentinel is actually the company Stack-on (and they're selling this one for about 10 dollars more on amazon)

Not sure what the thread title is implying, as the OP simply posted a video with no comment.

I have 2 similar to this. A bunch of us here got them as a group purchase a few years ago. I keep one in each vehicle and we were able to get them keyed alike, so I don't need 2 keys.

It's ideal for what it is used for and it's totally worthless for anything it's not intended to do/be in the first place.

$20 sounds like a fair price.

The video is his comment. I believe it is him in the video, as around 0:04 in the vid he says "relatively new to the forum". He made a video about what he picked up instead of typing it.

Looks like this one from Stack-On. I'm looking for something small for my car, and this should fit the bill. Thanks for the tip, OP!

As acosenza2 suggested, it's me, I know weird but the closest I'll ever get to being in the movies.

OK cool, but the thread title is vague, as I'm left to interpret what you mean by "?!?"



I looked on the Big Lots website, but didn't see it. Probably one of those deals where they bought a small batch of them. I'll have to look and see if they have any at my local store.

That's it, marketed as "Sentinel" but the instructions said Stack-On. There were a couple at the Big Lot in Franklin for only 20 bucks. I would definitely go Brand specific, as per my comment, I wans't too impressed by the one made by Sentry Safe.

As an additional comment, I think this would be great in the car if looped to the front anchor on your passengers seat and left out of sight (underneath). My guess is it would take either the use of heavy duty pliers or 5 to 10 minutes to get it freed. The lock is slightly more heavy duty than one you would see on a premium filing cabinet, there is no wiggle room along the hinges, I'd say the metal around it is about 1/16", cable 1/4" inch thick, has to weight about 6-7 lbs despite it's size.

That looks exactly the same as the ones I have, but I forget the brand. Probably made by the same company and rebranded.

It fits perfectly under the seat of my Cavalier and I have the cable looped through the seat frame. It won't fit under my truck seat due to all the motors/wiring for the power seats, but I found a spot under the back seat that works just fine. "Out of sight" is a good idea - I wish they would make the lock black so it didn't scream "HEY, there's something of value in here!"

I rarely use them, but if I should ever need to leave something in the vehicle, it's better than in a console.

For twenty bucks though, you can't go wrong.
