Tarriss 2-Pack TSA Cable Luggage Lock Review

When we travel, we always lock our luggage to protect it from theft and robbery. We usually use a padlock with a key and the problem is, we usually misplace the keys after traveling so our locks would often be a one-time use lock only.

I was sent the Tariss Travel Gear TSA Cable Lock 2-Pack and although we're not going to travel in the near future, I was glad to have been sent these for future use. I can never have one too many locks right? :)

The Tariss TSA Cable arrived in a sealed plastic packaging. Both locks have a pre-set combination lock of 000.

The body of the lock is made of a high quality zinc alloy. They are quite heavy for their size and I do believe these are durable and long-lasting. The cable lock is made of a steel wire enclosed in a nylon-type plastic. These are thin and can fit the hole on the zipper of our luggage. Even though the cables are thin, I think they're durable because they're made out of steel wires.

The white arrows to align the 3-digit combination number I set is very easy to see. I like how I can set the combination lock multiple times.
Setting the combination was very easy. I made a video on how to set-up the combination lock of the Tarriss TSA Cable Lock. See video above. :)

What's new to me is that these locks have a Travel Sentry Logo. I've never heard of the Travel Sentry Logo before and that solves the mystery of the key-lock under the Tarriss TSA TSA Cable Luggage Lock.

The Travel Sentry Logo is the red, diamond shaped logo in front and at the back of the Tarriss TSA Cable Luggage Lock. What this does is, US Transportation Security Administration (TSA) will be able to recognize this logo and they have a master key available for locks with the Travel Sentry logo. They can open your lock if they need to inspect your checked luggage, even if you're not there, preventing the need to cut open your cable/lock when you're not there. I think this is helpful specially if I don't want to find my locks cut, thus preventing theft as well.

As I've said, the locks are heavy and they look durable. Tarriss TSA Cable Luggage Lock comes with a lifetime guarantee and I think that's a great deal! :)
