SHOT Show: Shields Up

SHIELDSAKLoksak has made a serious business out of providing serious protection for today’s digital devices. This includes waterproof bags, and at SHOT Show this week the company is looking to increase the shields as well by introducing the SHIELDSAK R.F. Fortress.

While it won’t protect a device from a drop or extreme conditions it will ensure that the device is adequately shielded and practically takes mobile devices off the grid by blocking incoming and outgoing R.F. signals with an average attenuation of 30MHz to 10GHz: 72 9dB). This has been tested by Keystone Compliance using the Mil-DLT-83528C. It is currently be used by all branches of the military so it can more than stand up to almost anything you can digitally throw at it.

SHOT Show: Shields Up

Last week CES, this week SHOT Show and impressively LOKSAK is at both. We were introduced to them a year ago when we first saw their innovative plastic bags that are made to protect a wallet, mobile phone or other small item from the elements. The bags are a little more durable than your off-the-shelf sandwich bags, and fit nicely in a pocket for cycling, running or skiing.

So what’s new? Try the SHIELDSAK on for size, a flexible bag that is made of R.F. shield fabric that will protect devices from electronic signals. This isn’t so much meant for blocking a phone from getting tracked – for that you could turn it off. But if you’re worried about the data chips in your passport or credit card from being scanned this will ensure the shields are up and the scanning can’t get through. This works with any RFID type of chips, so if you’re worried about what might be scanned or tracked, this will ensure it is protected.

Well Loksak has a line of bags for just that purpose, and they’re much more durable than what you find at your local grocery store.

There’s a number of bags the size of cell phones, iPods and other small electronic devices. The best part is that you can operate your devices, both buttons and touch screen, through the bag. You don’t need to expose your phone to the elements to look something up, or make a quick phone call. Continue reading Loksak Seals, Protects Your Phone on a Sweaty Run
