Posted on Sat - December 3, 2005 Speaking of keys - Utility Belt Part 2I've tried a lot of key holders over
the years. The obvious solution is to keep them on your belt. Of all the types
I have tried, three worked pretty
well.
Of course there is the old standby, the leather strap thing over your belt with a hook for your keys. It does work pretty well, but the strap wears out after a year or so. There there is the retracting chain, also known as the "zirp-zirp." Get too many keys and it also wears out after a while and the chain won't retract. There there was a spring steel thing that worked OK until it got bent out of shape. I had pretty much resigned myself to replacing the leather strap type every year or so, and then I found something different. When I saw this, I knew I had found something that would
work.
Stainless steel, it was not going to get damaged easily. Quick release button makes perfect sense. And up to three keychains meant I could organize my keys into home, work, and car. It also meant less trouble when I left keys at the garage to have my car fixed. This tool just works so much better than anything else I have tried. |
Hello There
This is my no frills blog to cover all the gadgets and gizmos and technology that makes 21st Century life so exciting. Think of it as a messy set of notes that I keep for myself on all sorts of topics. It's really intended for my personal use, but I will explain sometimes as I go along.
My passion is for Macintosh and other Apple products, but I will use others as needed. If my notes and experiences can help or amuse you, so much the better. Categories
