This one goes out to anyone that has ever misplaced their bike lock key, or forgot the combination. Wouldn’t it be cool if you could simply unlock your bike lock like an iPhone? If your answer is yes, then check out the new BenjiLock by Hampton.

BenjiLock by Hampton is a Biometric bicycle U-lock, unlocked by your fingerprintIntroduced today at the Consumer Electronics Show, the BenjiLock will open with your fingerprint or a key – in case you don’t want to take off your gloves. The lock includes an IP-65 weather resistant housing to protect the electronic workings which are powered by a USB-rechargeable lithium-ion battery. A single charge is said to provide 6 months of power, and the lock can store up to 10 different fingerprints which would make family sharing convenient.

He loves those fingerprint/electronic locks – they’re so bad at what they’re designed for…

my first thought when I see a fingerprint or Bluetooth lock is how many seconds it will take for him to bypass it.
