TravelMoreTSA Approved Travel Combination Cable Luggage Locks for Suitcases & Backpacks - 1 Pack of Orange TSA Lock

Stylish and feels solid. The TSA keyhole is a nice touch. I have two issues with this product:1) The method of setting the new code is awkward because you have to use a pen to depress the silver button on the bottom while spinning the dials simultaneously.2) This lock is EXTREMELY easy to pick. I would have given 4 stars if it weren't for this. I've never picked a lock and I could pick this in under a minute. Simply press a pen against the silver button on the bottom. Start by spinning the top dial until you feel a click. That is the top number. Do the same for the middle. Stop depressing the pins. Spin the bottom wheel until you are able to open the lock. This is such a bad security flaw that I, an average person with no lock cracking experience, was able to figure out.

I learned my lesson on a trip earlier this year when my older, non-TSA locks were cut on a domestic flight. A friend showed me her locks and how TSA can open them with a key. So I purchased these just for peace of mind. Not too much I can say about them except that if TSA wants to look in your bags, they will open your locks one way or another, so might as well have these.UPDATE 07/01/2017: I am not changing my rating as I really don't know what happened but I now no longer use these locks, or any others, when I travel as there is no point. On my last trip my bags arrived without the locks! The only thing I can think is TSA either stole them, forgot to put them back on after opening, or didn't lock them securely. But as both locks went missing I can only guess. I mentioned this to other traveling friends who told me they no longer bother with using locks at all as nothing is secure. Don't pack anything you can't afford to lose. Make sure you have good travel insurance. That's the best you can do!

I bought this obviously to use as a luggage lock, but also for a different yet similar reason. I'll be studying abroad in a few months and I'll be traveling all over Europe. Obviously, there's the possibility of being pick-pocketed, and no matter how hard you try sometimes life happens. I bought a sling-backpack to wear as a replacement for my purse and overnight bag, and I wanted to put my more valuable items in there like my Ipad and important documents. Even though sling-bags are overall harder to have snatched, people could still stand behind me and zip open my bag and steal whatever they wanted. This lock provides the perfect solution to that, and I really don't care that it makes me look more like a tourist. It tells them that I'm not an easy target. It can lock the two zippers on the bigger pocket on the bag, as well as the middle pocket's zipper, effectively giving me two secure pockets to put items. You can see in the photo that it is easily achievable with the flexible cable. The cable itself seems very sturdy and would prove to be difficult to cut through for any pick-pocket. They would need a good set of wire cutters to get through it, though I'm not entirely sure how difficult it would be because I'm not going to try and cut this lock. Though, I would imagine it would take a bit effort, during which I would notice that someone was messing with my bag.As for the lock itself, it seems well constructed and hefty. It doesn't feel cheap or flimsy. It's a nice size and it's also very sleek looking. Not really important but adds a nice touch. It's small, but not too small. I added a few photos to show what it looks like open and closed, as well as a size comparison with a Sharpie. I definitely recommend this lock for anyone using it as a luggage lock, or as a backpack lock, or any type of lock. I will be using it on my checked bag during my flight to Europe, so hopefully the TSA doesn't just cut it off since the TSA symbol is hard to miss, and is on both sides of the lock.

As we all know a Lock will merely keep the honest honest A lock represents to others the importance of a personal belongings in this world it is necessary for governments to be able to inspect with this being said this little lock works just fine the only drawback that I see it would be of marvelous help to those who have low vision for the number wheels to be easier to see the numbers on the wheels I think you for this stay safe and keep your traveling cases safe

Okay, let be honest and for real. This lock is not very secure, and your really shouldn't expect much from it. However it should be noted that this lock was not made for that, instead it is used for denying the access and stealing of your stuff from people who don't know anything about locks, including just breaking them; by the means of tools like bolt cutters. Therefore don't get the lock if you're going to store your life savings in it, however do buy if you don't want your average person to literally open your bag and steal your stuff.It is also a tsa lock, meaning that somebody that has bought the tsa's lock can just open it easily, however most people don't carry them around in their pockets, and people doing that in the airport is unlikely because it would just be better for them to steal your whole entire bag. And you can't really do anything against that with locks. ESPECIALLY travel locks.

Good quality locks. I selected the orange colors specially to show that I have got a lock on my luggage. Cord is strong and flexible good for soft bags like what I am using.

Great item. Secure and felt safe using it.Well made.

It's good to stop thifes from opening my backpack

Sturdy enough locks. Feel solid. The cable is handy for those occasions when a fixed shackle is awkward. I doubt they offer major security but are ideal for day bags where you just want to make it harder for someone to open them.

I now have four of these, they are great on suitcases or hold alls. They are essential if you are going to the USA.
