VAULTEK LifePod Secure Waterproof Travel Case (Pluck Foam)

I purchased this for secure storage on the nightstand next to my bed. I also plan to use it for airline travel. It arrived ahead of schedule and in perfect condition due to very good packaging. It was easy to set up, seems rugged, and works well. I like that it came with extra foam inserts for customized fit for various firearms. The included carry strap and security cable are nice accessories too! I have practiced with it and can get it open and the firearm in my hand in 2-3 seconds. I keep a M&P Shield 9 with laser sight and an extra mag in it. There is plenty of room for that, and it will also hold a CZ P-10 C with room to spare. I like it and think it's good value for the money.

Vaultek is a trusted name and I love this little safe, my wife and I both have one and it’s perfect for small to medium sized pistol, I use the cable it comes with to secure it to the frame of a seat and cover it so that it’s out of view, thank you for making a great product.

Very durable and perfect security size for valuables and small items when traveling. Very well made and easy to set code.

Works great fingerprint reader is awesome Love this little safe.

Very good device. Work very well. Good value for money.

I never write day one reviews. However, I am very satisfied with my Vaultek. It fits my M&P Shield Plus & 2 magazines. The Airtag pouch is nice (I am on Android, but my wife can track it for me). I have it secured in my glovebox using the frame behind it to secure the cable tether. Otherwise, it fits nicely into the center console of my suv. I can't take my weapon into my jobsite, but at least it's not poorly secured in that space. I'm considering a larger safe for my master closet.The vault is well-made, easy to access, & not to hard to program. When it seals, it sounds secure & tight without my weapon jiggling around. It's not cheap, but the price represents the build quality & features. My other safe feels cheap now.

It arrived promptly. This is a high-quality safe that’s not too big.I was looking to keep my Glock 22 in it, and it worked out perfectly.

My job has me flying 40% of the time. I have dozens of travel cases and major cons on each whereas the Lifepod cases are mostly pro. I’ve tried a lot of cases and had one of three issues with them: too bulky, too heavy or not secure enough.I have both the Lifepod and the 2.0. I find the Lifepod ideal for single pistol or two micro pistol travel. The 2.0 is ideal for multiple pistol travel.Pro- They take up very little space in my suitcase.- They are the lightest secure pistol safe I’ve found.- They are easy to program.- They are reliable.- they provide extremely easy access while providing excellent security.- TSA cannot acres them without you being present (legally, they cannot open handgun cases with you present and they are prohibited from handling your firearm unless confiscating it due to law violations).- they are extremely adaptable for securing different items- they come with a backup key (which I keep on my keychain) in case of battery failure- they are tough and can take travel without getting damaged- they are extremely air tight. Try opening one after flying without venting it first.- they come with securing cables so you can secure the case in hotel room (very few do this)- three forms of entry (biometric, key pad and key)- interior light is great- most importantly, items inside are secure from movement when properly placed in the foam.Cons- the pluck foam doesn’t hold up or last- biggest issue to me is they do not have biometrics in bright highly visible cases. Nothing says steel me better than camo/dark cases. With bright yellow, white or orange cases it’s hard to hide from plain sight whereas it’s easy with the darker cases. I was flying into Haines Alaska and waiting as they unloaded the float plane. I knew something was wrong because I saw the baggage person handing my high viz yellow Pelican 1170 pistol case from around 50yds away. No way I would have seen that with my Lifepod cases. In flight my suitcase zipper failed on my suitcase dumping its contents in the cargo bay.Overall both cases are great and the only thing I feel they need to improve on would be adding high visibility line and a wider case capable of handling larger frame bear defense pistols.
