This is a lightweight yet confidence-inspiring piece of kit that is great for keeping personal things secure and personal; whether EDC items like watches, knives, USB drives or firearms, or more trip-specific things like travel documents (passports, small photo equipment, etc.). The lock / unlock process is smooth and reliable, and the included security cable helps keep it where it is supposed to be. Could a motivated thief cut the cable and take it? Sure. But is it likely to be secure from kids or random maintenance personnel, etc. that might be a little too curious? You bet. It also has the exact dimensions to fit in a rear floor bin on a late model RAM truck - which is an amazing stroke of luck for a long road trip. Very highly recommended.

*** Update after 1 month: have accessed the safe w thumb print 60+x w no issues After a ton of research this is what I settled on for my bedside safe. The biometric system was easy to program and works great. Plenty of room inside. If it holds up, I can justify the price which seems a bit high.

Love this safe! It normally sits next to my bed with the cable around my bed post so no one can grab and go. I also use this when I travel. Its TSA compliant on SWA and I've flown with it 5 or 6 times in the checked bag. The biometric safe has worked as I expected it to. I've had it for over a year and probably opened it 2 times per week. It also allows me to put more than one finger print in it's memory and you can still use a number code. Its fits my Glock 19, a flashlight and a 30 round Glock mag. So it holds quite a bit which is a big upgrade from my old version. I would highly recommend this product after 3 Vaultec purchases. I own two of these and the larger safe with a slide out shelf. It works great too!

This is my third vaultek product, the others being the first generation LifePod and the "Pew Pew Life" LifePod 2.0. The LifePod 20 is comparable in size and weight to the 2.0. Both can house a full size pistol, up to 8 or 9 inches if I remember), and magazine(s) when set up correctly (tested with a 320 compact and 21 round magazine). It houses my Smith & Wesson Shield+, with extras, comfortably. The tray that comes with the LifePod doesn't fit with the firearm and extras. Even with everything loaded inside, the vaultek is still light. The light turns on for 30 seconds when the case is opened, giving decent illumination. There is also a miscellaneous tray installed in the lid. It holds cards and various other items. To open the LifePod, either use the fingerprint scanner (instant access), or tap the lock button and input your access code, then undo the clasps. When you're finished, press and hold the lock button until you hear it lock. The LifePod can also be used without a battery, but it won't lock. The programming for the keypad and fingerprint scanner is very easy. The biometric lock is a nice feature. This is my first time using a vaultek with fingerprint lock. I was leery at first, but down the road I realized it's better should I somehow forget the code or need access in an emergency. Programming the fingerprint scanner is simple; can't do it wrong if you follow the instructions and it takes only a five minutes. Programming the code only takes a 2 minutes at most. If the battery dies, you can still access the inside by using the provided keys. The key does not lock the LifePod though. Since I just bought the LifePod 20, I can't make a judgement call about battery life just yet. What I can tell you is my LifePod 2.0 battery finally ran out (I bought it back in 2022) while my LifePod is still running on the same battery since 2021. The keypad powers down after a few seconds and, as mentioned earlier, the light cuts off after 30 seconds. If you're not constantly inside the case, the battery lasts a long time. Overall, with this being my third product from Vaultek, I think it's worth the price tag. Battery life is good (based on experience withother products), it houses my edc comfortably, and the biometric lock grants quick access.

Good but still not happy with it. Can not fit that much and has failed in me before and would not want that to happen in a siuatuon where I need it to work.
Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2026 by It broke in half one day when I put my hands down on my wooden desk. ( never dropped it or bumped it on anything hard ) it must have had micro cracks out of the factory or something… but it looked good… I liked it.
I’ve been interested in Vaultek for a while now. But I had a “average” safe with a electric buttons for the combination. But I really wanted to get a nice portable one. Vaultek knocked it out of the park. Besides being incredibly well built and super functional, it’s an absolute work of art visually. It’s gorgeous. For functionality, they thought of everything and executed flawlessly. Biometric finger print entry. Key pad entry. Key entry just in case. But you can lock out the key entry. You can store up to 20 finger prints (includes the 2 admin finger prints). The usability is excellent. So easy to program and use. Inside has multiple configuration options based on your needs including a removable tray and extra foam. Steel cable to secure it. And built tough. If I could design the absolute perfect safe (I’m using them for my guns), I’d not even have come close to how perfect this one is. I can’t recommend it more. Just get it. You will be thrilled and be able to rest assured your gun(s) (or valuable) are safe. I’ll be getting the multi gun Vaultek MX soon. Well done Vaultek, you’ve gained a customer for life.

I bought the non biometric Lifepod a couple weeks ago for my SUV and wanted one for my bedside and chose the biometric model. These are secure and easy to set up. Most importantly though is that the firearms are away from curious adults and children yet quickly accessible. My Springfield Hellcat fits nicely in the top tray with some pluck foam. The safety on my S&W M&P Shield 2.0 won’t allow the gun to sit in the top tray and when placed in the bottom won’t allow the tray to be used because, again, the safety. A small consideration that Vaultec overlooked. However without the tray it works great and my gun is secure. Great product! Get quality 9V batteries; they aren’t included.

The Vaultek Life Pod 20 is simply amazing and I believe it to be the best portable safe for traveling that money could buy at this current time. I originally purchased this for a camping trip to keep it beside me at night just in case an animal or person put my family or I in harms way. I honestly thought I would only use the safe for traveling purposes, but I absolutely love this thing and have been keeping it right beside me on my nightstand. It is made up of hard plastic, but it honestly feels extremely sturdy and durable. As for the button inputs and biometrics, the inputs work great. The biometrics work well too, I'd recommend using the 1st and 2nd user profile for one finger so that it can read your finger print better at different angles. My only gripe with this safe is the micro USB charging port, for the love of God it is 2025...why would you make a product that uses micro USB in the age of Type C charging. It's a bit of a goofy move, but other than that this safe is seriously awesome and I highly recommend it.
