Emergency key

Megan

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

Raquel

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.

Philip

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

Laura

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

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

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.

A company offers the service. I have it contracted for bussines safety.

Angelina

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?

Laura

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

Philip

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

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.

curious

Angelina
Electronic locks have that power supply problem. And electricity and water when you shower or swim don't go along well.
Best and easiest solution:
Get a cheap electronic safe. While they are of course not perfectly unbreakable, even cheap ones are uch harder to break open than the belt itself, so that should suffice.
Even though these safes usually have only 6 to 8 digits, many have a time delay. 3 times wrong number and you have to wait 15 minutes before you can try again. Another 3 wrong numbers and you have to wait 1 hour. With that delay system even a 6 digit code takes forever to break by brute force.

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.

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

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.

Philip

Angelina Well a plastic numbered tag should be good enough.

Kaja

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.

Laura

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

Angelina

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.

Philip

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.

Kaja

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...

Philip

Kaja yea making one of those would be pretty difficult.

Philip

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

Laura

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

youdontknowme

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

Mechanics can jam even more easily than electronics can glitch. As long as you have a way to make it not rely on a stable power supply for safety (unlockable) and security (irremovable without proper unlocking), I would prefer the electronics.

Angelina

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.
