I got an alarmed combo cable lock, could be cut through with heavy duty scissors but the alarm is ridiculously loud. If you're just nipping into shops and cafes I reckon it's the best bet as as soon as its touched it beeps a few times then kicks off if you don't unlock it. Handy for campsite as well, I left it with my stuff to alarm if anyone started snooping.

Like this but it was a little cheaper.

Thanks, have you had any issues with your giving false alarms? I don't want something like this waking the whole camp up at 4am.

Otherwise looks good.

No false alarms but as mentioned it is sensitive.

The way I figure it, any cable lock can be cut through pretty easily, you don't want to be luggin a d lock with you, so you might as well have a shit lock with benefits.

You don't have to set the alarm either, you enable it after locking.
