Vonetti is the brand.

It’s well built and the Mach key fits nicely. Because of the price I hesitated buying it, not knowing if our key fobs would fit.

I have been using a Faraday pouch that sometimes works, but not always.

Incase anyone else is wondering, yes it works.

I’ve used a slightly different version for several years. Works great.

I don’t disagree with the posts above but I wanted something nicer than foil.

I think it’s a nice faraday box.

Oh, it is for sure. It does the job, that’s the important part. 👍🏻

The inexpensive faraday bags utilize copper laced fabric. Nothing wrong with that but it can break down easily. Be sure to periodically check its effectiveness.

Why do you want your key fob in a faraday cage?
If you’re like me, you use PAAK and never carry the fob.

However, that one time you decide to valet and don’t want to mess with valet mode.

Or, you’re out with your wife and she volunteers to take the car and do some errands while you hang out at the brewpub.

Anyway, it can be handy to have a fob with you, but you want the car to still lock and not just drive away for anybody. So, you keep a fob in a Faraday in the car so it’s available but inactive until you need it.

Valet? What's that?

I was a valet at 17. As a result, no valet touches my vehicles unless there is absolutely no choice. I remember parking 2 blocks from the hotel once to avoid one.

I hear you. Very early in my MME journey went to a restaurant with valet in a driving rainstorm. In that case, I convinced him to just let me park it myself as the whole valet mode was a mystery to me.
