Philip a signed sealed envelope would work just as well I guess. A 6 digit combination would take about 5 weeks of continuous guessing to crack it. 10 digits would take longer than about 12 lifetimes to break.

Oh yeah it increases BIG with each new setting

In my house on campus I had a safe to which I had a key but no code.
I could open it, but if I did, an SMS was sent.

    Raquel ah right fair enough so close enough if there was the need to let out in a short notice.

    Raquel I could open it, but if I did, an SMS was sent.

    Where would a SMS be sent from? Being a techie, you could bypass it easier

      Philip 10 digits would take longer than about 12 lifetimes to break.

      hmm... i think that would be safe enough for my father 🤔 😂

      PS: has anyone actually read about such a chastity belt, i.e. a chastity belt with a combination lock, if so where?

        Angelina perhaps a combination lock with 6-10 digits attached directly to the belt?

        They are easy to break. As I mentioned in another topic, I would prefer an electronic lock

        Philip A 6 digit combination would take about 5 weeks of continuous guessing to crack it. 10 digits would take longer than about 12 lifetimes to break.

        But you can guess them due the nature of the mechanism

        Angelina i.e. a chastity belt with a combination lock

        Nobody wants it

          Angelina might be a good idea to change the combination lock every day of the year. That would take it above 4k years.

            Laura They are easy to break. As I mentioned in another topic, I would prefer an electronic lock

            easier than a normal padlock with a key? i doubt it.

            Laura Nobody wants it

            i think if it were designed securely, there would be a high demand, especially among people like us, because then the discussion about the emergency key would be solved.

            that's what my father would do, but i'm all about principle. i have an emergency system, but admittedly it could be better. with a number combination i would only have to send my father a whatsapp and he could give it to me within a minute.

              Angelina PS: has anyone actually read about such a chastity belt, i.e. a chastity belt with a combination lock, if so where

              I would imagine that it would only take a fairly minor modification on belts that are fastened with a padlock.

              Getting a compact padlock with more than 4 digits is abit more challenging, though.

                Angelina Or you can have the number in some seal envelope in your wallet. So it wil be safe for 100 % (everybody can see that your broke the envelope) but you can react instantly, offline, ... - when you need.

                  Kaja if I had an envelope with the key in it I would try and learn some clandestine skills to open it without looking like it had been tampered with.

                    Philip Well, you have not to use envelope but "evelope". So I think that must exist elegant solution.

                    For example the best way will be the same technology like scratchcard 😀 - you will win freedom. But I know that you can not make it at home...

                      Angelina easier than a normal padlock with a key?

                      Yes, in my opinion

                      Angelina because then the discussion about the emergency key would be solved.

                      An electronic lock is even better. They can tel you an access code

                        Raquel

                        yeah, but that would be pretty big for the belt. Not able to be hidden under the clothes.

                        How about a keysafe with a password? Or a remote keysafe via Bluetooth Tethering? Like that the keyholder only can open the safe with his cellphone.

                          Kaja yea making one of those would be pretty difficult.

                          Max9 that's is what I gave a link to above. A keysave controlled remotely by a app

                          youdontknowme I would imagine that it would only take a fairly minor modification on belts that are fastened with a padlock.

                          i would at least consider it better than using a padlock so far

                          Philip if I had an envelope with the key in it I would try and learn some clandestine skills to open it without looking like it had been tampered with.

                          this is risky, but within the realm of possibility. i think the best thing is if only the key holder knows the combination and then sends it as a message or something similar.

                          Laura An electronic lock is even better. They can tel you an access code

                          Max9 How about a keysafe with a password? Or a remote keysafe via Bluetooth Tethering?

                          i don't have much confidence in technology. a pure combination lock would be mechanical, which is much more trustworthy in my opinion.

                            Angelina a pure combination lock would be mechanical

                            Mechanical wheels are not secure, because you always feel the right position and no way to prevent it

                            Abby82 if the battery dies

                            It should have an external power connector

                            Abby82 Yeah, if the battery dies or something only thing you can do is to break the belt 😅

                            well, i'm used to technology working against me and not for me, others have different experiences, but i think it's too high a risk.
