Looking for recommendations Faraday RFID pouch

Hi all

Anyone actually using faraday keyring pouch/case on a daily basis?

I have 2 of these but 1 has stopped working: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Faraday-Lanpard-B...amp;sr=8-3

I prefer this mini 'box' type of design but this looks a bit small for my D4 (2014) key. Anyone using these or similar? https://www.amazon.co.uk/MONOJOY-Faraday-U...mp;sr=8-14

Many thanks

I've been using them on a daily basis since September last year - test them fortnightly and they are still working at the moment.

These are the ones I am using.

We have two keyless entry cars, so keep the main keys in the pouches and both spares in the box.

Whilst I admit I don't use a pouch whilst I'm out & about, when the Icemaiden is home we drop both our keys into one of these in the kitchen. Empty of course & two keys fit snuggly.



Available to buy at most Waitrose

I've used the 'Defender' signal blocker pouch. These do wear out . With a bunch of keys (including house keys) going in every 2 days on average they lat about 2 years or so. I test regularly. My current ones are lasting a bit longer due to not using the car so often.
Note the Defender pouches, also have an annoying non screened pocket at the front, that you can put keys into if you are not careful.

Tried various tins , but never found anything I can be 100% sure of so avoided.
Cheers

pouches are "free issue" from Salford Council via councillor's drop-in sessions.

maybe your local council offers them too ?

My keyless never work when they're in the same pocket as my mobile.

Keys can tear the inner sleeve of a pouch, the fobs don't, so I don't have any keys attached to he fob.

Simple but effective remedy to the pouch failing.

Sadly that’s not the case for me. The newer smaller LR fob is all that goes into my faraday pouches and they still stop working after a while. Sad

it's a coating inside the pouch. keys in/out and creasing the pouch in/out your pocket will degrade/remove the coating.

The pouch at home stays flat and lives on top of a bookshelf. It gets opened and closed typically twice a day and that’s it. It still looks like new. It’s a mystery as to why it no longer works.

Try a Google search for - EMF Protection Fabric Faraday Fabric RFID Shielding Nickel Copper Fabric Military Grade Fabric

This will throw up a number of suppliers.

I'm going to talk to my favourite maker of leather goods to see what he could do.

I have in mind a pouch comprising outer & inner leather skins and a core of military grade EMF Protection Fabric. It will be expensive so I will probably specify two layers of the EMF Protection Fabric.

In the short term I'm going to buy some Military Grade EMF Protection Fabric to make into a pouch for use at home.

I think someone on here uses a small aluminium cooking pot or saucepan, with a lid, to keep their keys/fobs it.

With or without a pouch, the microwave is a good place to keep overnight.
