ElevationLab Launches 'TagVault' AirTag Holder

[MacRumors]

ElevationLab today debuted the TagVault, which is the most protective AirTag holder that we've seen to date.

Priced at $12.95 for one or $29.95 for a pack of three, the TagVault is a two piece AirTag holder that screws together to offer total protection for an AirTag. The two halves come apart, the AirTag is situated in the middle, and then four screws hold the TagVault together.

According to ElevationLab, the TagVault is waterproof, but it is worth noting that the AirTags themselves have an IP67 water resistance rating that allows them to hold up even when submersed in water.

In addition to waterproofing the AirTag, the TagVault will protect from scratches that the AirTag might collect when attached to a set of keys or another item where wear and tear will be experienced.

ElevationLab says that the TagVault has a nondescript design that doesn't visually broadcast that an AirTag is inside the case, and it has been created to be compact so it doesn't add a lot of bulk to an AirTag.

The TagVault can be preordered from the ElevationLab website starting today, and it will ship in June.

They had to wait until somebody drilled a hole into their AirTag to make this lump look preferable by comparison.

 

[farewelwilliams]

that looks like a nightmare to take apart just to replace the batteries.

 

[Jimmdean]

no customization? shouldn’t they be paying me to advertise their company?

 

[AndSonArt]

Awesome! But say goodbye to being able to hear the speaker lol.

I was thinking the same...

 

[dannyyankou]

I'm wondering if this would impact the U1 signal

 

[kuwxman]

It's four screws...

 

[trifero]

Good luck with the sound.

 

[michaelb5000]

I like it. I can see using that for outdoor gear like bike and boats etc

 

[Jgreg00]

You and I apparently have far different definitions of “nightmare”…

 

[Anonymous Freak]

I'm waiting for the first "privacy focused" AirTag holder that blocks RFID...

 

[Blackstick]

If it's just plastic it'll go right through... if it's metal that's an issue.

 

[testcard]

I like it too. Useful when hanging an AirTag off a daypack when out hiking.

 

[nsayer]

I give it 10 minutes before someone copies this and puts it up on Thingiverse to print yourself.

 

[DCstewieG]

But without a hole for the Apple logo, how will people know I bought an Apple product??

 

[cmaier]

but there are 4 airtags!!!

They are using the same technique used by purveyors of hot dogs and hot dog buns. Buy 12 of everything - least common multiple for the win!

 

[aarond12]

Airtags come in packages of 1 or 4. These come in packages of 1 or 3. Seriously guys? Is this the hotdog/bun problem again?

 

[zilchfox]

I'd be worried about the sound being muffled, as well as potential interference from it being able to be detected by Find My.

 

[cmaier]

If it's just plastic it'll go right through... if it's metal that's an issue.

I’m sure it won’t be long before someone sells a faraday cage case, to prevent apple from reading your mind or some such ****.

Great minds and all that...

 

[doboy]

But I can’t see my cute little emoji engravings Not that I bought any airtags

 

[Lemon Olive]

In addition to waterproofing the AirTag, the TagVault will protect from scratches

..... ?

This product encapsulates the entire thing...you can't see the AirTag at all. So what if it protects it from scratches? You're not even looking at the AirTag. What....are you going to take it out after 2 years and trade it in to Apple for AirTag 2 and need it to be scratch free to make sure you get your full 4 dollars worth of trade in credit?

Protective about what? People should review their relationship with gadgets. It’s amazing for me the market of covers, protectors, shields…what’s the purpose? What’s the purpose of a case for AirPods? Why protect a tag? A disposable product, like any other thing manufactured these days.
