    I found mycube had a biometric safe. It’s pricey though something like $550+

    I have this safe next to my nightstand that I keep a gun in, mags, money, medications and other stuff that should not be left out. I have had it for years and it works good.

    I have this safe bolted to the side of my nightstand for my home self defense firearm.

    I think Vaulteksafe will have a few options you might be interested in.

    I have a Liberty safe in my basement where I keep all my other stuff.

    Good enough maybe to keep the kids out, but that's about it.

    Interesting commentary both pro and con on these bio safes. I’ve always been concerned that my either my beat up hands and fingers (especially in winter) won’t register quickly when needed. Even my ipad has the same problem. I guess its like a lot of technology and that once you get used to it there can be a benefit.

    Exactly my intentions for the Barska. Everything else I said is in a Liberty safe in my basement which is a premium floor safe bolted to my concrete floor.

    Here's an MGO thread from 2018. A little more food for thought.

    If you are better off than you were 4 years ago....................you are probably an ILLEGAL INVADER.

    In my experience, if you've got working hands that might get a nick or a cut or if you have prune finger tips because you're dehydrated or just got out of the pool/bathtub then a biometric safe is probably not your best choice. I bought a bedside safe with a simplex lock 4 or so years ago and I would never consider a biometric safe still.
    I've got a fairly current 5G phone that one would think has a pretty recent biometric reading system but it still fails me on occasion due to the condition of my fingertips.
    The simplex lock on my safe never fails me. Push the right buttons and you're good to go.

    Do any make a chirping noise when batteries go low like
    Smoke alarm? That would be helpful

    I have a Verifi S6000 and have had it for about 2 years. I've never had good luck with fingerprint readers (iPhone/iPad, laptops, commercial security entrances, kid's school, etc) due to dry skin, cuts, etc. I swore off any kind of fingerprint reader for a safe. Then I took a chance on this one based on some research... and it has been fantastic. You push a button, then place a finger on the reader, and the door unlocks in under a second. Plus, it has a good interface for programming fingerprints, audit logs, alerts, battery readings, and a built-in LED that shines inside the safe when the door opens.

    I have several fingers saved in there, but it just simply works every time. It's a big fingerprint reader so it's easy to get your finger on the right spot quickly. I am in and out of it typically 2x / day (morning/night), and it gives you battery life percentage every time you close it. I change the batteries once per year and they are typically still 85% or so at that point.
