Off Shore Auto Key Programmer Clones | Mr. Locksmith Video

Off Shore Auto Key Programmer Clones | Mr. Locksmith Video

For further information go to http://mrlocksmith.com/

My daily Auto Key Programmer is the HotWire and the MVP Pro. I am on the unlimited token plan for both programmers. For the past 5+ years, I have been purchasing and testing “Offshore Auto Key Programmers.”

I have several Off Shore MVP clones. The price was so low, we keep on testing to see if any Off Shore Key Programmer could replace our existing programmers.

The MVP Clones are poorly made and no consistency or reliability with the software.

One Off Shore Key Programmer clone will program Ford and Chrysler but not Honda. Another identical clone will do Honda but not some Fords.
Another clone may work on a Nissan, but no one unit will do everything. It’s just been a zero.

So we kept on buying these, kept on testing them. Our dongles would break. The units would break. They’d fall apart. The software was inconsistent.

However, we found one clone that consistently worked well with Honda reflashes, specifically the 1998-2002 Honda Preludes.

In the early day we were just trying to save tokens, and really did we save any money? No, the clones were not good. There’s no consistency.

But again, if you don’t try, you don’t know. And there are some good units out there that the Chinese are coming out with now that are making some of the good stuff look bad.

Some of the new offshore auto key programmers they are using their own software, their own designs, and they are not clones or scammer units. Some of the Off Shore Key Programmers actually seem to be getting there.

Well, they’re coming out with nice updates on them, so they are becoming consistent.

The thing is with everything, you could have an Offshore made, really good programmer, and now they have counterfeit units of that that are total garbage.

So why are some of these Auto Key Programmers $300 and the other unit’s $50? The $50 unit is a total clone and it’s a total piece of garbage. How do you know? You don’t. That’s the big problem.

 

One way to find out is if you read the automotive forums.

Talk to other Locksmiths and view our videos.

The various plugins quality was all over the map. Some very good forums on Facebook, KeyPro website, ClearStar, etc.

So far, again, we’ve talked about this before, our go-to units are the MVP Pro and Hotwire.

Review Hot Wire Automotive Key Programmer | Mr. Locksmith Blog

January 6, 2018 By

Review Hot Wire Automotive Key Programmer | Mr. Locksmith Blog

For further information go to http://mrlocksmith.com/

Mr. Locksmith Automotive is reviewing the Hot Wire Automotive Key Programmer. I absolutely love this product. It was one of the first programmers I bought. We use two major Automotive Key Programmer, the MVP Pro and we the Hot Wire.

Hot Wire is it is PC based. It goes through a box and it plugs into the OBDC unit. It’s the most idiot-proof key programmer you can find out there.

The interface is so simple you don’t even need to read the manual. All you do is pick out your year, make, and model and plug it in. Turn the key to run and hit enter. The interface is unbelievably good. I absolutely love this. For beginners or advanced automotive locksmiths.

The MVP Pro is the bleeding edge and can do more autos. However, the Hot Wire is easier, quicker to use but again we had the other day where the MVP Pro wouldn’t program a vehicle, the Hot Wire did it.

In the past, I had two Mustangs side by side, same year, same model. The Hot Wire would program one but wouldn’t program the other. The MVP Pro would program the other unit but wouldn’t program the one that the Hot Wire would do. That’s a constant battle with cars. It happens.

We are making keys to cars every single day. This is what we find and we can’t do without two programmers. Nobody can.

That is why we keep on trying some of the offshore versions just to see how they go. We’re always evaluating them.

Again, if you are starting out and you’re coming into a good standard unit, this is the way to go. It’s simple, it’s easy, it’s to the point, and you can’t make a mistake. You really cannot make a mistake.

I love the tablet-based Hot Wire because it’s all in one unit.

We are subscription based on one of our Hot Wires and one we have purchased the software for the most popular autos.

No matter what anybody says, we haven’t found one key programmer that does everything.

If the manufacturer’s want to disagree, I’m waiting for that holy grail. That one machine.

Campbell’s Gold Honey Farm and Meadery | Mr. Locksmith Abbotsford 604-200-8622

December 3, 2017 By

Campbell’s Gold Honey Farm and Meadery | Mr. Locksmith Abbotsford 604-200-8622

For further information go to Mr. Locksmith Abbotsford.

I wanted some local Honey for my tea and also wanted to try some Mead wine. Mead wine is an ancient “honey wine”, thought by many to have been the first alcoholic beverage made by man. Mead, the drink of the so-called “Age of Gold” in Greece, originated on the island of Crete and was known for its mystical properties. Referenced by the great philosopher Aristotle, mead was often produced by monks in Northern Europe, where grapes were scarce.

One the few places in Vancouver and the Lower Mainland is  Campbell’s Gold Honey Farm and Meadery and is located in southwest Abbotsford adjacent to Aldergrove south of the Fraser Hwy.

They had Mead Wine and Honey Tasting.  I really liked the Merry Mead and the Crofter’s Choice Mead wine. Also, I chose the Campbells Gold Floral – Des Fleurs Canada No 1- Dark Amber Honey. My Mead Wine is now in my Wine cabinet and I already had my first cup a tea and honey on this rainy day.  Tomorrow, Honey and Toast! Again, locally made in Abbotsford, BC.

How to Dial and Change Safe Combination Lock Part 001 | Mr. Locksmith Training

December 3, 2017 By

How to Dial and Change Safe Combination Lock Part 001 | Mr. Locksmith Training.

For further information go to http://mrlocksmithtraining.com/

 

 

This information is typical of a Sargent & Greenleaf (S&G), Ilco, or LaGard Safe Mechanical Group II Combination Locks.

Combination Operating Instructions:
To unlock the safe use the “Opening Index” (located at the 12 o’clock position) on the dial ring for each number. You must dial the combination precisely without backing up.

– Left 4 or more turns to the left (counterclockwise) stopping at the first number “20”
– 3 turns to the right to the 2nd number stopping at “40”
– 2 turns to the left to the 3rd number stopping at “60”
– Right to open: turn the dial to the right until it stops moving.

There are a few safes out there that are R-L-R instead of L-R-L. In that case, you utilize the same procedure except that you would reverse the direction.

Note: See upcoming videos on “forbidden zone,” drop point, opening locked safes, combination lock maintenance, troubleshooting, safe tools and the most important tool to open a safe!

North Vancouver Lonsdale Love Locks

December 3, 2017 By

North Vancouver Lonsdale Love Locks

Mr. Locksmith North Vancouver  (604) 239-2111

Automotive Locksmith North Vancouver  (604) 259-7617

For further information go to Mr. Locksmith.

I was visiting Lonsdale Quay Market in North Vancouver and I was pleasantly surprised to Love Locks locked on the fence.

North Vancouver joins other Love Lock locations in Vancouver, Love Lock Sculptures in Queen Elizabeth Park and Burrard Street Bridge.

Burrard Street Bridge in Vancouver British Columbia is an unofficial Love Lock Bridge. City work crews repeatedly remove padlocks from the Burrard Street Bridge. Also, the chain link fence just east of the Plaza of Nations on the False Creek seawall is another location of Love Locks.

A love locks sculpture dedicated to eternal love is now on the lookout above the Quarry Garden in Queen Elizabeth Park, Vancouver, BC.

A love lock or love padlock is a padlock Lovers lock on a bridge or similar public fixture to symbolize their love. Usually, you engrave your names on the padlock, lock it onto the bridge and then throw the keys into the Seine river below to symbolize their unbreakable love.

North Vancouver joins other famous Love Locks locations in Rome and Paris. The Ponte Milvio is a famous bridge in the northern part of Rome, specifically the Della Vittoria district. The bridge became so popular that, despite its strong brick foundation, the city feared it might sink from all of the locks.

People still visit Ponte Milvio to lock their padlock to the bridge and declare their eternal love, today.

Paris actually has two Love bridges, the Pont de l’Archevêché and the Pont des Arts, are probably the most well-known love lock bridges in the World. One bridge is for “lovers” and the other bridge is for “the love of your life.”
