Anyone have a keyfinder with replaceable battery they can rec? My stick n find hath finally died after a decade of solid service

just to reiterate: replaceable batteries. No tiles, no airtags, no ewaste bullshit

[-] Nath@aussie.zone 2 points 1 week ago

If you have Apple, Airtags are the best. Stupid expensive ($50) though. You can get cover things to make them into keyrings.

Has the advantage of being able to find your keys on an app wherever you left them.

At less than half the price and with a much smaller 'find my tag' network is the Tile Mate. You can get them at JB or Officeworks.

A decade of solid service? How often are you losing your keys? Do you have to whistle then it whistles back? How does it work? Have you tried a rounders bat like the servo dunny keys have?

I rarely lose my keys, but handy to have.

Larger concern is His Lordship has the other one from the packet...and ADHD

[-] indisin@aussie.zone 2 points 1 week ago

ADHD and keys... I miss the days when wallet chains were cool and so you'd just attach your keys to your wallet and then that wallet was chained to you. Saved my arse so many times.

What I'm getting at is that my partner feels your pain and frustration.

[-] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 2 points 1 week ago

Oh. I see. I hope he has a hook to use daily as a back up. Having to find keys everyday would drive me insane.

But still how does it work? How do you locate them if they are lost?

[-] Taleya@aussie.zone 3 points 1 week ago

The sticknfinds use a BT connection to your phone. You can make your keys sing, or even radar detect

Oh that's cool! You could leave a message like "You're getting warmer".
