PROfezzion Airtag Holder with Wire Cable, Protective Airtag
PROfezzion Airtag Holder with Wire Cable, Protective Airtag Case Keychain Scratch-Resistant & Waterproof IPX8, Full Cover for Suitcase, Pet Collar, Car Keys, Child's Backpack, Luggage etc (4PCS BLACK)
I like the strong cable feature and the four secure screws. The yellow color is great for my keys so I can find them easily. The material is lightweight, but you can hear the AirTag pinging easily. I think it’s a wee bit expensive but it’s a very good quality. It may be overkill for my car keys, but it would be really good for luggage and would definitely be worth the 10 bucks or so it cost.
PROS
-really solid, I think they will take a lot of abuse
-a more permanent solution to AirTag attachment
-cable is quite thick, I have no fear they will fall off whatever they are attached to
-includes extra of the tiny screws (which are quite easy to lose, they are _really_ tiny)
CONS
-there is no silicone or rubber gasket to keep water out, I question how waterproof these are going to be
-screws screw into plastic thread, I would have preferred a brass insert for the threads. Plastic threads don’t survive too much movement (not an issue if you are going to attach them and leave them, but if you are opening and closing the case a lot, those threads are going to fail).
NOTES
-since it’s a bit of a (useful) faff to put these on and them them off things (like luggage), choose their location carefully.
MY STAR RATINGS:
1* substandard, mostly cons
2** barely acceptable, cons outweigh the pros
3*** meets the basic requirements, cons balance the pros
4**** good product, pros outweigh the cons
5***** exceptional, all (or almost all) pros
Thick, plastic covered metal cable, that’s secured into the case, which is held together by 4 screws, undone by the included tool. The case itself seems to be of hard impact resisted plastic and comes with a set of replacement screws. This obviously isn’t a product designed for constant application and removal, but more a semi permanent solutions. AirTag itself is hidden away and completely encased in the plastic casing, which, judging by the design, would suggest that it’s splash proof at the very least. Seems to be a high quality product which should stand the test of time.
We use Airtags on several items of luggage. Invariably the Airtag disappears into some crevice and is hard to find again, or, worse, bounces out completely and gets separated from the luggage it’s protecting.
What we like about these holders is that they are robust and they have a wire retainer that can be used to keep the Airtags in a predictable place.
Recommended.
Fab idea as you can now lock your AirTag into a case which should stop it being damaged, the case is waterproof so no worries about rain and showers. Comes with the screwdriver so easy to do install and then the wire goes around a part of the bag, so even if visible will be very difficult to steal or remove without having to take the whole bag. Overall pleased.
A nice design airtag holder.
I usually prefer to keep my airtags out of sight, especially when travelling so I’m not sure I would use these on my suit cases.
They would prove useful if you need to attach them to anything where you don’t mind it being seen and want to make it a little harder to remove.
You need a special screwdriver (provided) to open these up and also secures the wire strap in place so it cant be removed without the screwdriver.
Whilst the case is made of a tough plastic to survive drops and scratches of your typical airport terminal baggage handlers. It wouldn’t take much to get these off it someone hit them hard enough with a hammer or something heavy to break the plastic.
These could have quite easily been made out of metal and been even more secure, but that would almost certainly have bumped up the price even more.
I like the idea of this Airtag holder, to stop potential opportunists from taking your luggage and possessions. You have to physically unscrew, place your Airtag and screw the holder back in and attach steel wire to the zippers or case.
It feels robust, and can not be broken easily. Of course it does not entirely stop a thief from taking your things and cutting the wire off.
I think those are really good. Most comments mention using them on luggage but because of the waterproof rating and their robustness i will be using them on substantial pieces of gardening equipment.
I liked that they have included a spare set of screws as there is possibility of losing the odd one.
For starters these are well made and a good design
The securing cable is in proportion to the strength of the overall product so would be tricky to cut through or remove without some other tool.
The case is held together by 4 very small hex screws which again need a tool (supplied) to disassemble and hence remove from the item you are wishing to secure/track.
The small screw do mean that this is a more permanent attachment to something as they are a tad fiddly to undo and, as previously stated, do require a tool to achieve this.
The casing is also of a reasonable thickness to protect the AirTag from impacts etc even if someone wanted to remove it.
Basically, the handle/strap you would be attaching this to would be an easier item to cut/attack than trying to remove this product. So ideally you would fix this to some place that had roughly about the same strength as the Holder.
As for attaching it to keys/key-ring…well each one is not small. If it were a large bunch of keys may be or if they were very important I might use this, but there are other smaller/cheaper options which may be better suited for that task.
This product excels on securing/tracking larger items like bags/luggage (airports).
I have added a small address capsule (usually used for pets) to mine as that requires no batteries and gives an additional/easy way of being contacted if you get separated from your luggage etc
This is a fabulous pack of 4 AirTag protective cases. It comes with a little screwdriver and a load of spare screws.
The cases are made from a tough plastic and have a strong 3mm cable wire which is securely encased inside the main body of the holder. You have to remove the 4 little screws to insert/remove your AirTag and also to attach the cable to your item/bag/suitcase.
This makes them much more secure than regular keyring style AirTag holders, which can be easily unclipped!
They feel rugged and strong, like they wouldn’t be easy to remove or break off without the correct tools to hand.
They are fairly bulky and chunky, so I wouldn’t want to use them on a pet collar or a bunch of keys, however, they are ideal for suitcases.
Very pleased with the quality and design!
These AirTag holders are a cut above the competition as they are solidly made and really do protect the AirTag from the elements as well as knocks and scratches.
Takes a little bit of time installing (un/screwing plates) so suggest these are for attaching to items on a more permanent basis (e.g pet collar, luggage, transport/vehicle).
You pay a little more for these, but could be a case of avoiding ‘buy cheap, buy twice’.
These Airtag cases are what they claim, secure, strong, sturdy, and appear to be waterproof. The only downside is they are a little fiddly to use, which may be the compromise you need to make due to their secureness.
They are opened/closed by 4 small screws to each Airtag case, and as they are security (Torx) screws, you do need an appropriate screwdriver. However, one is provided with the product so not an issue, as long as you remember where you put it.
If you need to attach the cases to something that does not open, such as a luggage handle, you have to completely unscrew, attach the case, then screw back together again, which is a bit annoying. If you plan on leaving it on something permanently, you only have to do it once, but if you plan on moving the Airtags between items, it could be inconvenient. The other option would be to loop it through a split ring/keyring type hoop, but I guess that would compromise the security, which is, I would guess, why they have been designed the way they have.
We did want to use these on our dogs collars, but find they are much too big for that, and will dangle down into food bowls. However, as we walk our dogs using harnesses, attaching the case to that is in ideal compromise, as if a dog did run away whilst on a walk, we would be able to track it.
The case itself is hard plastic, the screws however do go into metal inserts, and there is quite a deep recess from one side to the other for the waterproof part, so I imagine that works well.
The metal loop is plastic coated, which is great, and it clips in one side of the case easily, so overall a good, secure, strong Airtag Case, but awkward if you plan on moving it between items.
There are two schools of thought about attaching AirTags to bags, keys, bikes and other articles that are taken out of the home so have the possibility of being left behind or, worst case, stolen.
One is to have a visible external luggage tag with a contact e-mail or number plus a concealed AirTag. The other is to have a visible AirTag which cannot be simply removed. This chunky holder fits the latter category.
Fitting is by removing 4 small flush hex head screws to insert the Tag and loop the wire over a strap, handle, frame or lug then screwing it all back together again. (There is a small driver supplied to do this)
If someone for nefarious reasons needs to remove or disable the AirTag it’s going to require either cable/bolt cutters to get through the braided cable or a hammer (or rock) to physically smash apart the plastic, which will not be quick and will not be soundless.
Construction includes a sealing gasket and the wire loop is plastic coated so won’t chafe a strap or damage paintwork. Useful holder.
I’m quite satisfied with the AirTag case that I’ve been using.
The case provides a snug fit for the AirTag, ensuring it stays securely in place.
The materials used feel durable and have held up well to everyday use.
The added loop or keychain attachment is a practical touch, making it easy to attach the AirTag to various items
Have this on my wallet and keys as a mechanic takes a lot of abuse and not failed yet nice and strong
I like how secure these feel, and the fact that the cable is long enough to give the body of the case enough to move about in my pocket, because I put my keys in my back pocket often, and the fact that the case has enough room to move out of the way of the keys, means it’s not all in one place, causing it to be uncomfortable in my pocket for me, so thats a big bonus for my keys.
Now a second thing I’ve used one of these for, is my backpack, and again really it’s the freedom of the cable length, that means I can put the cable around the top carry handle, then tuck the main body of it through an earphone cable hole, which works great.
They do up very well, and create a nice tight seal, I’ve checked the one on my backpack after I’ve been out walking in the rain, and my AirTag was bone dry, and it was pretty heavy rain ,so that’s impressive as far as I’m concerned.
The over all feel of these is good, the do feel durable, and tough, I’m confident that they will keep our Tags safe, without the risk of damage, barring anything extreme.
I like the way the cables are situated into the top of the case too, it’s done well in my opinion, giving the metal cable end a decent grip, so it won’t, or shouldn’t, and I don’t think it will, come loose.
All in all, I think these are a great way for us to attach our Tags to a variety of things, and because I got a pack of 4, we’re considering the idea of putting them on to the dogs collars, which could prove the best use yet when I’m out on long walks with them at the weekends.
Super useful in my opinion, and sturdy enough to do the job.
Holders are nicely built. Love that they can’t be removed without using a small hex bit. They are discrete so not immediately identifiable as an air tag, being fully enclosed helps with this.
I got a pack of 4 and had 16 spare screws in a small bag, so a full replacement set of screws.
You also get a little hex screwdriver that is a perfect fit to all the screws.
With the tag in the case my phone has no problem locating it accurately, the sound is also still loud enough to locate.
Inside each case there is an o-ring seal, should keep out dust and water.
Really happy with these and will be putting one onto a few things knowing it will be hard to spot and remove if stolen or lost.
This Airtag Holder is all about security: You need to use the special screwdriver to open it (easy) and then place your AirTag inside. Then you need to remove one side of the security wire and attach it to your precious item (bag; keys etc). Nobody is going to remove this holder without properly damaging whatever it is attached to. It’s strong. It’s very simple really. I think most security conscious people wouldn’t have an issue with unscrewing and screwing back up. If you think about it, it’s the most secure way of doing things (without the holder being permanently moulded together). It’s a serious product, doing a serious job. Although, maybe the colourful ones would be best on your kid’s bag? Be careful with that screwdriver! Try not to lose it as you’ll need to order a hexagonal screwdriver to replace. Easy to get, but would take a day or two. I would recommend ensuring you have a fully charged battery in your AirTag (check in your iPhone Finder App) before jetting off.
These Apple Airtag holders are very well engineered. Using one leads anyone seeing it to presume the Airtag itself is as valuable as the item it is protecting.
To gain access to the sealed compartment which holds the precious Airtag requires the removal of four smartly blackened stainless steel screws. An allen key is included in the kit to do this.
Before screwing the holder back together the steel cable, which will secure it to whatever you are tagging, needs to be threaded through part of it – a substantial part if it is to be effective.
The holder is obviously intended to permanently attach an Airtag to the object being tracked. Removing and refitting the screws is time consuming and not particularly easy, especially for somebody who is not very dexterous.
Once fitted the Airtag is protected; from theft by the 3mm steel cable, the elements by the IPx8 waterproof rating (1.5 meters deep for 30 minutes) and rough treatment by the tough plastic case.
Aware that the screws are easy to lose the suppliers have included a full set of four replacements for each holder. It will also be noted that the screws are not self-tappers, but proper machine screws that are threaded into brass bushes, so they are designed for repeated use.
