Review on Uning Detachable Keychains: Your Ultimate Accessory for Convenient Key Management by Chris Budenski

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Put two and two together

I read an article about problems with the car. My attention was drawn to a message that I have too many keys. Like me I have about 13 keys. This number of keys will not be difficult for me, but for the ignition system in my car. I'd rather avoid than replace. My search began with a question. How to separate the remaining keys from the car keys? That's where this quick release keychain comes in. It was very helpful. Now I get in the car, separate the remaining keys from the car key. In addition to shopping, the guy has the keys in his pocket. I personally don't like feeling pockets with so many things. Wallet and car keys are all I need. When I get home, I attach my keys and get on with the rest of my day. I also think if I lose my keys it's not everything, just car keys. I know I can still go home and open the door to my house. This is how it works for me. What I find a bit fiddly is the locking mechanism. How it works: The pin has a groove that houses a small ball bearing. A metal sleeve is used to hold the ball bearings. This serves two purposes: it holds the bearings and locks the telescopic part in place. The metal sleeve is spring loaded and moves back and springs forward. The best way to remove the keys is to pinch the metal sleeve between your fingers and press down on the stylus with your thumb. It's like holding a syringe. The same concept is used in most socket wrench sets. It's ok, it would just be nice not to do the same operation combining both sides. I'm sure they could have something better, but for the price I'm up for the bargain. I would still recommend for the all metal construction and craftsmanship. Packed in a sealed transparent plastic bag. Review written after a month of using this keychain. So I can say that it was durable with no flaws in the mechanism. I still use it.
