Pothunder Fingerprint Smart Padlock Lock, Biometric Metal Keyless Thumbprint Lock, Waterproof, USB Rechargeable, for Gym Locker, School Locker, Luggage, Backpack, Suitcase(Gray)

Bought this fingerprint lock for the gym about 5 months ago and it’s been a great “quality of life” gadget!I can’t remember if I charged it as instructed when I first received it, but if I did, then that was the only time I’ve charged it so far. I go to the gym typically 5 days a week and use the lock about 4 times each visit, so roughly 400 uses over a 5-month period, probably an overestimation tbh.Today is the first day I got a low battery indication. Not as long as advertised, but again, don’t remember if I charged it up to 100% when I got it, and I still think that’s a great length of time and use to go without having to worry about charging!I only have a couple of nitpicks about it. The first is that the lock opens with the hinge on the left. I know that doesn’t seem like a big deal, and it’s not. But most other locks open with the hinge on the right and as a right-handed person, I’ve had to adjust a bit to using this lock.The second nitpick is that this lock charges with a Micro USB cable. I so wish it used USB-C! I have very few, if any, other gadgets that use Micro USB, so I feel like I have to keep an outdated cable around (and remember where it’s at) for the very few times that I need to charge the lock!

It was easy to program my finger print and it reads my thumb print and unlocks quickly. It is not a heavyweight lock and I think any adult could circumvent it. I’m using it to lock up my meds and keep my curious toddler safe. It is certainly strong enough for my purposes. The battery has lasted a few weeks now. I keep it by my bedside near an outlet where I can easily recharge it. I don’t know how practical this lock would be if it were used somewhere away from power for charging the battery. I love the thumb print feature! When my migraines hit I definitely don’t have the ability to mess with a combination lock.

Bought this lock for my gym locker. As instructed when unboxed, the first thing I did was charge the battery. Then I trained to my thumbprint. So Far - so good. I left it there as I only needed the one fingerprint. I left on the table for a 2 days before taking to the gym. Tested and flashed red a few times before opening. Here the Indictor Table in the instruction sheet is confusing. It says that a flashing Red light is either Low Power or Failure to verify fingerprint. Thinking the later I installed on my locker. I returned to the gym a day later to find that I was unable to open with no flashes. Red, Green or Blue. The battery was dead and having to way to plug in a USB cable to charge I had to have the gym remove the lock. So now I have a lock that was cutoff using bolt-cutters and non-returnable. Save your money.*Update: To their Credit the seller did reach out and offer a replacement. However, it was too late as I had already replaced the lock with a more conventional combination lock.

This lock is great and works perfectly as advertised. It was a lot smaller than i anticipated though.

The fingerprint unlocking has been very consistent and reliable for me. The product overall has made my life easier; making it super quick and easy to get in and out of lockers plus it’s very cute and compact. The battery life has been great seeing as it’s taken about a year for it to finally die. So here lies my warning:Be proactive and take your lock home to charge maybe every few months. I let it die completely with my car keys, belongings and freshly brewed hot coffee locked inside! I had to get a ride home and get the cord to get into my locker at work. Don’t be like me, don’t have a crappy Monday morning. Be proactive or at least keep a micro USB somewhere handy.

I have a locker at work in the hospital I work in. It’s a small 10x10 locker and I didn’t want to hang a large lock on it or one that took 14-30 turns of a dial. This seemed perfect. I LOVE the size. No it’s not the most durable lock but I’m not storing gold bricks in my locker, just coffee pods and things like that. (Which at a nursing station might be considered as valuable!). It worked great and fast for the first few weeks. It had a persnickety moment or two, but overall was exactly what I was looking for. Then one day it unlocked and would not lock back. It’s charged, reset etc. and nothing worked. It’s not “dead” it’s still charging, holding its charge, setting fingerprints etc. but it will NOT close. I bought two so I can swap them out for charging purposes but now I’m afraid to use it for fear it might lock my stuff IN my locker and not unlock. It’s an amazing idea but poorly executed. So I’m very sad.

I had lost my previous locker keys for my old lock, having me to cut the metal bar to retrieve my belongings inside. It lead me to purchasing this for the convenience of not needing any keys (preventing lost) or remembering combinations. It is PERFECT as far as simplicity goes. Registering my fingerprint was not difficult thanks to the instructions it came with. The photos I included should show visual examples; the only thing I did wish was for it to have an app, BUT still gave it 5 stars because of the price and the fact that it’s day 3 and I have yet to even charge it lol. Super great for its purpose.

I love using my biometric locks, they work so well. The size is perfect, they are very sturdy and dependable. As you can see I have 3 of them and will probably purchase another at some point soon. I love to use them to lock pieces of luggage for when I am flying or going on any type of trips
