hi Dave Taylor here and this time I want
0:12
to talk about RFID wallets again
0:14
specifically I want to talk about this
0:16
this is the hauberk RFID shielded slim
0:20
leather wallet for men now it's pretty
0:24
nice I've talked about RFID wallets
0:26
before and let me just sort of open this
0:28
little bit and show you inside and the
0:31
whole issue with RFID is that we have
0:34
smart credit cards and we have all sorts
0:37
of like ID cards and stuff and they're
0:40
getting what are called RFID which is RF
0:42
information right and the idea is really
0:46
smart is that you can wave it near a
0:48
scanner and it'll go ahead and read your
0:51
credit card sort of like Apple pay or
0:52
Samsung pay their proximity sensors
0:55
those are generally more NFC which is
0:58
near field communication but it's the
1:00
same basic issue if I have one of those
1:02
cards in my wallet and I have that in my
1:04
pocket and someone walks by with a
1:07
scanner guess what they can read my data
1:09
now in ordinary situations that's
1:12
probably not that big a deal but if
1:14
you're at a busy Airport or if you're at
1:16
a big crush of people buying stuff at
1:19
Christmas time or something it's an
1:21
issue and it's going to become more of
1:23
an issue and you can do a Google search
1:24
yourself and find out that you can find
1:27
the plans to build an RFID scanner that
1:30
can read things up to three feet away so
1:33
we're not talking someone having to bump
1:35
right into you we're talking about
1:36
someone just walking slowly through the
1:38
shopping mall and scanning and seeing
1:40
what they can get enter RFID shielded
1:43
wallets and that's what the hauberk is
1:45
so this is actually really really nice
1:48
this is a actual real high-quality
1:51
leather wallet with very nice stitching
1:54
at everything I realize you can't see
1:55
super well it's sort of black on a video
1:58
but you can see it has lots of different
2:00
pockets and space for credit cards and
2:03
something i like is it has two areas one
2:07
you can use for money one you can use
2:09
for I don't know other stuff I use it
2:11
for overflow cards
2:13
but it's all very slim and the important
2:16
thing is that it's actually really
2:17
really slim who wants a really fat
2:20
wallet it's just awkward and not only
2:23
that but it's really soft I've looked at
2:25
other RFID wallets and they tend to be a
2:27
little crinkly and a little stiff this
2:29
one doesn't have that issue and this i
2:31
cued you're not this is everything that
2:33
I carry in my wallet and you can see
2:35
this is plenty slim enough I can keep
2:37
this in a pocket and it's not going to
2:38
be a big deal so it's a very slender
2:40
design and of course with RFID it's
2:43
great for travel because you don't know
2:45
like going through an airport especially
2:47
an overseas airport who knows what's
2:49
going on you should also have an RFID
2:51
passport protector but that's a little
2:53
beyond the scope of this video anyway
2:55
one of the things that's cool about how
2:57
Burke H auber k by the way is they have
3:01
a lifetime guarantee so if you decide in
3:03
three months that you've used it and
3:06
you're not thrilled with it and it's not
3:07
your thing they'll give you your money
3:09
back that's pretty cool and here's the
3:11
other amazing thing is how much would
3:13
you pay for this technology turns out
3:15
it's only 24 99 and Amazon so you can
3:19
pick one up and it's really the same
3:21
price as any other wallet and it just
3:23
happens to also have that RFID shielding
3:25
so my take is it's really becoming
3:28
important for you to think about this
3:30
for you to get RFID shielded wallet rfid
3:34
shielded passport carrier even if you're
3:36
a gal this is a men's wallet you might
3:39
want to think about if you have an RFID
3:40
shielded ability to hold your credit
3:43
cards in your purse because you got the
3:45
same issue you're thinking oh I got a
3:47
leather purse so it's all safe from a
3:50
scanner that's all invisible so this is
3:52
dave taylor this is the Halberg RFID
3:54
shielded slim leather wallet for men and
3:57
I say check it out see you in my next
