As I have travel around in the van something that routinely gives me some some cause for concern is someone breaking into the van. That sent me on a search for the best value car safe to store my belongings.
I mean bad things do happen sometimes, but the bigger issue for me is that I often will go for a bike ride, run, kayaking or some other activity where I don’t want to bring my wallet, phone or other valuables. So while someone breaking into the van would certainly suck, breaking in and then getting my wallet, phone, cash, credit cards or other valuables would suck exponentially more. So off I went looking for the best value car safe to keep those belongings in.
And the best value car safe is…
After shopping around some for some type of car storage for valuables I finally found something that can easily, safely and relatively cheaply hold my wallet, phone, valuables, etc. The SnapSafe in XX-Large has dutifully answered my needs for storage and safety. For those of you who also carry a pistol, this easily fits my Taurus PT-111 with an extra magazine. Plus it will also fit my wallet, phone and some spare space for another small item.
It is made of high quality 16 gauge steel, comes with two keys and a security cable. The cable attaches to the safe lets and lets you attach it just about anywhere in your car or van. As mundane as it sounds, I feel a lot better knowing that when I am out for a run, bike ride, hike or whatever the adventure is for that day that the valuables I have left behind are both well hidden and locked up. While it may not deter everyone it should be enough that a would be thief that stumbled upon it wouldn’t have the time or inclination to try and mess with it.
