Tech-Break Storage Locking System For Family Tech Devices
Tech-Break Storage Locking System For Family Tech Devices, Easy Programable Coloured LCD Screen Timer, Multiple Modes To Help Reduce Screen Time, Usb/battery Powered, Universal Charge Cables Included
Tech-Break has made a real positive difference to real families in under a week
A recent family survey found that a staggering 48% of children spend more than 6 hours a day online. This is an increase of over 500% since the pandemic began (ParentsTogether Foundation April 23, 2020). And with parents becoming ever more concerned with their children’s use of apps & games it’s become increasingly difficult to get your family life back.
Tech-Break is an award-winning innovative product (Mum’s Choice Awards Gold 2021), invented and in collaboration with industry experts. Tech-Break is a physical solution to a digital problem and allows families to disconnect – from social media, gaming, on-demand TV – and to reconnect with each other by exploring other interests and activities together as a family: homework, crafts, sports and much more. Tech-Break was put in the homes of some real families that were struggling with this issue, and 84% said it had changed their lives after less than one week, and that they couldn’t live without it now.

I’d like to market this product for the seller (seen as I’m an expert in marketing and branding). I really think this device can change lives.
I have a fairly addictive personality. I don’t indulge in social media. But, I realised how much my phone was dictating my life.
This thing is so easy to set up and use! I use the timer to lock my phone away for 2-3hr slots while I immerse myself in my work. Then before bed, I use the sleep function to set it to 10hrs. This way I don’t use before bed, and, when I wake. What a difference!
LIFE CHANGING!
WOW.
Just WOW.
For 20, I expected something that barely worked! This has blown me away!
Easy to use, fits my lappy at an angle, fits all the phones!
Made of some sort of sturdy metal-style plastic, not metal.
But very sturdy, well built nonetheless.
What I was looking for was a lock-box that would not be broken into without breaking the items inside, and this is it.
Great for locking kids tech away
The lock box is great. My son even puts his phone in by himself so he can study for an hour at a time without disruptions.
I thought the battery life would be better but it has been used extensively.
Not Perfect but good enough for the price
he product has its flaws as any would at this price with so much to promise but it absolutely does the job, my only critique would be quality of life changes such as being able to silence the beeping, half an hour increments & the charger cable being able to charge batteries inside (they die very quickly)
This Really Is Grea
I’m a harsh critic but for the money I paid (less than 20), this is exactly what we needed.
This comfortably fits 2 Xbox controllers, 2/3 TV remotes, 4 phones and 2 ipads in with room to spare.
The digital lock can be set to the hours you want or use the presets available.
It’s plastic so don’t think you’re going to get some heavy set metal safe for 20, but you want it to do a job and this most certainly does.
A slight quirk in that when the timers up the door pops open like a cash register, but that’s about it.
Easily 5stars
As others have said, this feels sturdy and well made. For the price of 20 I can not grumble!
It’s really simple to use, comes with a thick cardboard instruction sheet which is very easy to follow, user friendly and will be a good reference sheet.
The only minor annoyance is the sound of the beep it makes, it’s a bit ear scratchy!
Highly recommend.
I have no idea why this is (only) aimed as a tech device locking system because it is so perfect for snacks and sweets!
I use this box to store all my desert items so that I can finally limit myself to only one per meal, literally for the first time of my life!
AT LEAST that little voice in my head can not talk me into getting an other one since they are all behind a lock!
This is literally life changing and liberating as I do absolutely need a snack to ends every one of my meal – otherwise I am still hungry!
It is so ridiculous to get to that extend to control the gluttony, but it is incredibly effective indeed!
And the value is fantastic too! Not only the various food storage locking systems cost about 2 to 3 times this price, but they are all much smaller as well and seems to use some strange old interfaces. They are usually poorly built too with people reporting being able to break in – hence their low rating on Amazon.
This one is SOLID though. Despite being light so the construction must be seems very smart!
The only drawback is that it is doing some tremendous noise when the time is up as it rings. Quite a shame as I would prefer the thing to be discreet about the time being up:) I am still hoping to find some settings that I have missed though…
I hugely recommend this! So much in fact that I consider getting a second unit for my wife as she is addicted to her electronic devices because of her work indeed
Funny enough, she set the code of my unit and I would set the code of hers 😀
Again, ridiculous (and dystopian) but very effective 😀
Can store anything
Often when buying things on Amazon you have to take all the descriptions with a pinch of salt, however if anything the description of this item undersells it. For the low price I was expecting something cheaply made and barely functioning (I was also worried there wouldn’t be a custom time set) so when it arrived and I opened the box I was blown away.
Packaging was very secure but not obnoxiously so, it was obvious the item would arrive in perfect condition but it didn’t take me hours to unwrap.
Setup was instant with clear large print instructions on a handy A4 card and a sticker on the item itself to help navigate.
Can store items for custom time periods in hour and day increments. These items do not have to be tech, the shelves inside can be removed easily leaving a very sizeable area for storage (other reviews have pictures of it’s size for reference).
The override feature is very useful and has a further override option should that fail, both of which are detailed on the instruction card so if you have poor willpower like me you can just scribble out those bits.
The safe itself is not particularly robust, and could be broken into destructivly with some effort. However, this would likely damage the product irreparably and definitely be visible, so it is unlikely anyone would be able to access the safe without your knowing without the override features.
Safe can be battery powered or plugged in. The wire needed is very common, but it comes with a high quality wire already that is really quite long. I can’t comment on battery efficiency as I use this wired.
This item is a perfect solution to any unhealthy habit, especially for the price. Definitely recommend.
First impressions are great!
I don’t leave reviews often, but I’m amazed something so decent is so cheap – I’ve seen lockboxes that were twice the price of this but that were a bit useless because you could override/unlock it whenever. Would work for most habits you want to put away for a bit, good build and features, and if you have someone else set the passcode you cannot get in before the timer runs out! Seems the ideal tool to teach me a bit of self discipline 🙂
Tech-Break Storage Locking System: A Game-Changer for Device Organization and Security!
This Is a very useful item it works perfectly without any problems I just wish you could turn the beeping noise off or turn it down as it does get annoying. It is made from a strong plasticy material. It is very sturdy and it works perfectly with keeping your kids off their devices.
