Tools and Hardware Reviews of Master Lock 4688D TSA Accepted Cable Luggage Lock in Assorted Colors, 1-Pack
Customer Review: Excellent Purchase
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this lock over the Christmas holiday due to me getting a Wii for Christmas and needing to carry it home in my luggage. I was nervous that someone would steal the game from my luggage if I didnt have a lock. To my surprise I came across this TSA approved lock that gave me the security I needed to lock my things away but also allowed them access to my luggage should they need to inspect it. Turns out, they did have to go through my things and were able to do so without busting my personal lock. Highly recommended for a frequent airline traveler to secure your things. Will be ordering more of these for each of my bags.Customer Review: Excellent Travel Lock
Summary: 5 Stars
Works great, very easy to set, stronger than the standard travel lock shackle. One suggestion is to design in an indicator to show if it has been opened, but that is likely in the works. Some others rated this lock for other uses than travel and I feel its intention is for luggage travel security; TSA means it is made for travel, not foot lockers and gym bags. You can order a 1/4" shackle model for larger hasps. I recommend this over any thin shackle type, which break during travel and can be easily cut or twisted open with pliers. This is secure and flexible.Customer Review: Flexible but heavy.
Summary: 3 Stars
The link is flexible. I like that so I can use with my camping bag that have two open on one zip when I need to load on the plan. The problem is heavy. My bag is ~10 lbs + 1 lb for the locks, so I can load 35 lbs more in my bag (a lot of space left).Customer Review: Great little TSA-accepted lock for your SporTube ski luggage
Summary: 5 Stars
I have an older SporTube for protecting my skis when vacationing, and it originally came with a non-TSA lock with a long shackle. The holes in the Tube, where the shackle of the lock is inserted, are too long for most TSA-accepted locks.
The last time I traveled with the Tube, it was opened by a crack TSA person who did not take the time to properly re-lock it, and I found the two pieces of the SporTube at the Denver airport baggage claim with my skis jutting out of the bottom piece (thank God I had warpped them in my ski bibs before inserting them into the Tub).
This lock has a flexible shackle that will easily pass through the holes on the tube, and even the stupidest TSA person should be able to figure it out and re-lock my skis.
NOTE: SporTube sells their own version of this lock for $19.95 on their website, so this is a REAL bargain!
Customer Review: Great lock but wrong color
Summary: 5 Stars
Great lock, ordered two, a lot stronger than it looks in the picture. I plan on using these on my backpack in Europe. Unfortunately, I wasn't allowed to select the color I wanted. Instead of black I got red and blue. Maybe I'm just picky, but now they wont match next to each other and will probably attract more attention than if they were just plain black.
The lock works just fine and the numbers are easy enough to use. Just follow the instructions to create your code, and for convenience, just have it off by one number so you can easily unlock it.
