At about the size of a standard legal pad and with internal dimensions of 7.1 x 8 inches, the Speedlocker is big enough to hold a standard size duty pistol like my FN, and a number of magazines. It can also be used to secure things like knives, keys, jewelry, travel papers, and more. How much you can get into the box depends on your packing skills. The interior is lined with foam inserts to protect your stuff.
Unlocking the Speedlocker does not require any biometrics or complicated combinations, and it is not battery operated. There are five buttons on the front of the box. You hold down one or more of these buttons to disengage the mechanism. It comes with a factory setting, but you can easily change it to any one-, two-, or three-number code you wish. To change the code you just change the positioning of five pins inside the box. A small Allen wrench is included for unscrewing and moving the pins. Streamlight says there are 31 possible combinations, and I trust their math.
Unloaded, the Speedlocker tips the scales at 2.6 pounds. It has a handle to make it easy to carry and holes in the frame so that it can be mounted to a surface. It is suitable for air travel when combined with the included padlock and cable.
It’s been my experience that Streamlight makes high-quality, durable products, and I believe the Speedlocker will continue that legacy. It’s well designed for its mission, easy to use, and really tough.
List price on the Speedlocker is $165. Which sounds a bit steep. But I am seeing it at a number of outlets online for less than $100.
