Pilot's Review of Hornady Rapid Vehicle Safe
Update by author: The beeps can be silenced using the directions given, but only when the safe is unlocked with the door open. Hornady CS was unaware of this omission, and will modify the directions in the manual shortly.
By the way, when using the numeric combination entry method, finger placement is important, and somewhat difficult in strong sunlight when there is minimal contrast with the highlighted finger placement zones. Other than that, the finger combination firmware and mechanism are 100% reliable when using that method, which I regard as only for backup use, if the key and RFID devices are unavailable.
The RFID entry is the fastest entry method, and the only one I would recommend using under duress. Also, there is no combination that can be observed, e.g. by a passenger.
