Disklok Faraday Pouch review
Disklok Faraday Car Key Pouch (Small)
By Tom Calder
If your car unlocks when the key is near it, this is the first thing to buy. The Crime Survey estimates that 58% of vehicle thefts in the year to March 2024 involved a thief manipulating the key's signal, and a sealed pouch defeats that. What Car? tested eight and every one blocked the key, but the Disklok was its best overall, still blocking after two wear cycles in a tumble dryer. Put the key in the white-lined pocket, test it once at the car, and retest every few months, as police.uk advises.

Who shouldn't buy this
Don't buy it if your car needs the key in the ignition to open and start: there's no keyless signal to block, so a visible steering lock is the better spend.
