The Vaultek LifePod 20 Essential is a weather-resistant portable case built around a built-in Smart Sense capacitive keypad, sized to carry a full-size handgun up to 9.25 inches long plus the everyday-carry essentials that travel with it. Dual-side compression latches and an inner rubber gasket seal the interior from water, dust, and air, so the case holds up to rain, pool decks, boats, and trunks without getting the contents wet. It meets TSA guidelines for airline-checked firearm transport, which makes it a practical choice for travel to the range, hunting trips, or any flight where a handgun needs to be locked for transport in checked baggage.
Access is handled by a backlit touch-activated Smart Sense keypad on the lid. Backlit touch-activated Smart Sense capacitive keypad with a 4-digit master code and 80,000+ possible combinations. Two manual backup keys are included if the battery dies before you can reach a USB port, and an optional anti-picking feature can be enabled from the inside to disable the front keyway entirely for buyers who prefer electronic-only access with no physical lock-picking surface. The LifePod 20 Essential does not include a biometric fingerprint reader; buyers who want fingerprint access should look at the LifePod 20 Biometric model instead.
The case body is molded from Vaultek's proprietary T3 Polymer blend rather than steel, which keeps the loaded weight to a few pounds while still passing Vaultek's internal drop and impact testing. An interior LED light illuminates the contents when the case is opened in low light, useful for travel scenarios like opening the case bedside at night or in a dim car trunk. The sealed design means the LifePod 20 is airtight and dustproof in addition to being water-resistant, and the case floats in water. Power comes from a single 9V alkaline battery (not included) with up to one year of battery life under normal use. A micro-USB port behind the front rubber keyhole cover lets you power the keypad directly if the battery dies, so you can unlock without opening the case to swap the battery.
Interior dimensions are 9.625 inches long by 7.25 inches wide by 2.125 inches tall, which fits a full-size semi-auto handgun with a magazine and a spare mag, or a compact handgun plus wallet, keys, and phone, or just a kit of pocket essentials when the handgun is not in the case. The included high-density interior foam padding keeps the contents from sliding, and the included 50-inch steel security cable loops through the attachment point to anchor the case to a car seat frame, bed frame, hotel safe, or any fixed object so the whole case can't just be picked up and carried off.
If you prefer the compact-form LifePod gen 1 with the same keypad-and-key access in a smaller footprint, the Vaultek LifePod is available in Black and Titanium Gray at a lower price point.
If you have questions about the LifePod 20 Essential, TSA transport compliance, how it compares to the LifePod Gen 1 or the LifePod 20 Biometric, or whether your specific handgun fits inside the 9.625-inch interior, please call us at 800-207-2259.
