GREENTEQ MIRAGE FINGERPRINT PADLOCK
» FORGET ABOUT KEEPING A KEY FOR your padlocks . Mirage is a robust short shackle padlock that uses fingerprint recognition rather than a key for locking and unlocking .
As well as the convenience of not needing a key , Mirage can be programmed with up to 20 fingerprints so is ideal in situations where many users need access .
Power is provided by a simple charge via a USB socket that is protected by a rubber cover when not in use . Depending on how often the padlock is used , a single charge will typically last for approximately 200 days .
When the charge is running low a beep will sound . An LED around the fingerprint pad will also illuminate .
Setting up users is very simple , without the need to connect to a computer . The first three users to be set up are classed as Admins . An Admin is then required to set up further users . All users can be easily deleted by an Admin , using the setting needle provided .
