Very easy to open just by pulling on the shackle. I didn't expect high security, but with some force you can pull it open with one hand. It looks well made and is metal though. returning

this little padlock is pretty cool, and works exactly like it is supposed to. It seems to be pretty well-made, even though it is not the most secure, and seems like it could be busted open pretty easily, maybe even snipped with wire cutters. But, it is not for high security situations, it is more like the little time locked phone boxes, to forcibly restrict yourself from something. It is very easy to set up, and use. And has a great battery life. It is secure enough to work, and definitely tamper evident. If somebody breaks it, it is definitely broken, no sneaking around it. It is a pretty cool little product, and does what it is supposed to. Highly recommended.

Works great. Somewhat difficult to operate, but you get used to it.

Can be opened with just a little force using two fingers because shackle metal is not hardened and is very soft to bend

The 999 Hour Metal Timer Lock is a handy device for anyone looking to curb bad habits or limit access to tempting items. It’s simple and intuitive to use, which makes it perfect for quick setups. Just set the timer, lock it, and you’re good to go!One thing to note is the limited length of the looped cable, which is only about 9 inches. Unfortunately, it wasn’t quite long enough to fit around my fridge handles as I had hoped. So, keep that in mind if you’re planning to use it on larger items.The metal case gives it a sturdy feel, but I would only recommend using it for habit-forming purposes like locking the fridge, keeping candy out of reach, or limiting gaming system access. I wouldn’t trust it for securing any real valuables, as it’s more of a deterrent than a heavy-duty lock.Overall, it’s a useful tool for keeping yourself accountable and building better habits.

This 999 Hour Metal Timer Lock is a unique and intriguing security device with a standout feature: the ability to set a timer for up to 999 hours (that's over 41 days!). It's perfect for situations where you need to restrict access for a specific duration.Imagine using it to lock up snacks during a diet (no, don't imagine that it will just depress you), keeping kids out of the school lunch snacks (yes, thats better!), or even controlling access to gaming consoles, phones, or TVs for a set amount of time. In a professional setting, it could be used to secure sensitive documents or equipment during off-hours or to manage access to restricted areas.My husband has an unusual hobby of lock picking, a passion he's had since childhood. He's constantly on the lookout for new locks to challenge his skills. We've had this particular lock for several months, and he hasn't managed to open it—except by waiting for the timer to release it, just like anyone else would. With persistent practice, perhaps it could be breached, but it's as secure as locks come. Its solid metal construction and the added complexity of an LCD display and electronic controls are effective deterrents against casual attempts at tampering. Although someone with advanced lock-picking skills may eventually succeed, it would be a formidable task for the average person.I at first considered that the locks time delay feature could be useful for limiting access to controlled medications, ultimately, I decided that it would not be a great idea. In an urgent situation or emergency, the inability to open the lock quickly could have serious consequences. It's best suited for situations where a time-based restriction is helpful but not critical for safety.The 999-Hour Timer Lock is a fascinating and versatile tool with a wide range of potential uses. It's well-built, easy to use, and offers a unique level of security through its time-delay mechanism. While not foolproof or suitable for all situations, it's a clever and effective solution for managing access and promoting self-control.
