Simple securityJun 09, 2008
By Brian L

Used this product to lock up a camera bag while traveling in Asia. I suppose someone could cut the cables with the right tools, but it was a handy way to secure valuables in my guest houses and felt somewhat more comfortable than just leaving them unsecured. Maids don't seem to carry cable cutters.

If you travel, you should own this!Jul 16, 2010
By Technical Information Transport Systems Pacsafe has expanded their product line thoughtfully over the past several years, owing much to the consistent sales of their first product--the eponymous PacSafe. This ingeniously designed wire mesh cover encases your backpack or duffel, then with a simple cinch of the lock cable, allows you to loop it around any immobile object--I've personally used trees, street signs, benches, and most importantly train compartment fixtures. The material and workmanship on every component is top-notch, well worth the price point. While nothing can absolutely foil theft, this company understands that most crime is committed due to motive and opportunity; if you make the opportunity much smaller, you reduce your risk exponentially. A bag protected with a steel cable mesh secured with a bullet-proof padlock simply says, in a loud voice, "MOVE ALONG TO EASIER PREY" to the would-be thief. I've traveled all over SE Asia, Europe and Northern Africa with this as well as the PacSafe backback and hipsack, and am proud to say I've not even had an attempt made on my belongings (while having lost more than one bag in years past before I wised up to these). For some the weight may be an issue; it is nearly 2 pounds of dead weight to lug around. To this I reply: shave ounces elsewhere, where it makes more sense--pack lighter, lightweight rain gear, toiletries, accessories, etc., because the protection this affords is worth every penny and pound. As a side note, aside from urban theft-deterrence, the PacSafe also makes itself useful in many other scenarios--I've used it as a bear-bag while hiking on the Appalachian Trail, as a frame for mosquito netting in the forests of West Bengal, and as a great conversation starter in New York City.

Limited ValueJan 05, 2012
By BRETT ROBSON The gaps in the mesh allow something with a diameter of 8.5cm (3 1/3 inch) to pass through, camera lenses, camera bodies, mp3 players and mobile phones will pass straight through.
