This is a small device that will secure up to 4 USB/charger cables and allow you to attach it to something making it more difficult for someone to remove your USB cable(s). This model I am calling a theft deterrent as it does not actually “lock” but rather creates a barrier to theft and a perception of security. I am working on another model that will be properly lockable.
There are two versions of this model…. one that requires no tools to open (it has a protruding push-button to open the clasp) and the other marked “HS” (“higher security”) which has an inset pushbutton which is a) not obvious to find and b) requires a small object to press inward.
Both models have a “lock” setting that you can use to prevent accidental opening. Turn the lock setting dial to either Lock or Unlock positions.
100% printed - no hardware, fasteners, or adhesives required. No additional support is required.
