Lockibly Activa Fingerprint Smart Lock w/ Mechanical Lock #Review

Reviews · 

I received the below mentioned complimentary product either for free or a discounted price for the purpose of this blog post. All opinions and thoughts are 100% my own.

Security is everything to me. Making sure that my family is safe is the biggest concern for me. Another thing that I need to be is safe, locked and secure is my home. Granted they may only be things but some of those are priceless. There has been way too many break ins in my area for me to feel safe. I live in a elderly community. The thought of changing my lock many times to match my feelings of feeling unsafe is just mind blowing. It is not the thought of changing the lock but the thought that I am always misplacing my keys.

I consider myself to be tech savvy. At least I thought I was. In this day of modern technology, Companies are always coming out with the next best thing that you must have. O.k., I have heard of door locks that you can access with your finger print but I have never saw one up close and personally until now. I have recently been offered the chance to review the Lockibly Activa Fingerprint Smart Lock w/ Mechanical Lock.

Lockibly is a leading security company in North America. They create simple affordable smart locks. Lockibly makes the safest most minimalistic smartlocks. Did you ever come home with your arms full of packages only to have to put them down or be a contortionist to get your keys out to open your door? I want to introduce you to a smartlock that uses either your finger print or key to open your door. People may not be ready for just a finger print to open your door so you have the option to use a key. Talk about being safe and secure. You may thing what if I have other family members? Well, Activa Fingerprint Smart Lock w/ Mechanical Locks state-of-the-art capacitive fingerprint sensor allows lightning fast unlocking under 0.5 seconds. Intelligent algorithm means the lock becomes faster and more accurate with each access. Stores up to 100 different fingerprints.

I think the major thing I love, if I had to pick just one, was the quick, easy to install process. All it takes is a screwdriver and a few screw. Installing it is only 5 minutes. Everyone has 5 minutes. No other tools are needed.

Also it only takes 4 AAA batteries which impressed me. Some may thing well what about the freezing temperature? The finger print reader works in temperatures -20 to -60. The LED lights when a finger print is recognized.

Lockibly even has a lock that opens with either your finger print or by bluetooth. Now that is a lock for modern technology.

All in all, I give the Lockibly Activa Fingerprint Smart Lock w/ Mechanical Lock my thumbs up. I highly encourage you to check out the Lockibly.com website and find the perfect lock for you at an affordable price.

Valentine’s Day has always been special for me. I like to carry that feeling to the younger generation by giving them small but meaningful gifts that not only educate but expand their minds. I was thrilled when the review opportunity presented itself to review the National Geographic Kids Books which included: We Love Babies! (ages 2-5), Turn it Up!: A Pitch-Perfect History of Music that Rocked the World (ages 8-12) and 1,000 Facts About Dinosaurs, Fossils and Prehistoric Life (ages 8-12).

About The National Geographic Kids Books~

1) We Love Babies! (ages 2-5, National Geographic Kids Books, Hardcover, $17.99)

Love + adorable baby animals = a MUST for Valentine’s Day and baby shower gift giving. This hilarious picture book with rollicking, rhyming text reads like a crowd-pleasing call, pumping up readers’ excitement for the cutest baby animals ever. Illustrated with lively National Geographic photography, We Love Babies! presents furred, feathered, and finned baby animals of all shapes and sizes, celebrating their glorious diversity, from “paws and claws and little flippers” to “feet that look like fuzzy slippers!”. Whimsical cartoon cheerleaders add to the fun, popping up throughout the book to lead fans in the irresistible refrain: “We love babies, yes we do, we love babies, how about you?”

2)  Turn it Up!: A Pitch-Perfect History of Music that Rocked the World (ages 8-12, National Geographic Kids Books, Hardcover, $19.99)

Rock On! The high notes and biggest moments in music history are covered in this big, bright, hardcover- from Bach to the Beatles to Beyonce, and beyond. Many major music genres are playfully explained, from tribal, classical, jazz, folk, opera, rock … all the way to today’s modern forms, such as k-pop, hip-hop, and rap. Instruments and sounds are explored, along with places and events in history that inspired the evolution of music. Kids will also get a sense of music theory, instrumentation, and the artistry of distinctive musical styles. Song recommendations help readers open their ears to what they’ve learned and a rockin’ glossary of musical terms as well as a timeline that plots each genre on its path from ancient history to today make this book one that is bound to top the charts.

3) 1,000 Facts About Dinosaurs, Fossils and Prehistoric Life (ages 8-12, National Geographic Kids Books, Hardcover, $14.99)

T. rex, triceratops, pterosaurs, saber-toothed cats! This eye-catching, comprehensive, and “browsable” title is jam-packed with 1,000 fascinating facts about what these prehistoric creatures looked like, how they lived, and the evidence they left behind. Uncover amazing fossil facts about the first four-legged creatures; find out what it’s like to be on a dinosaur dig; and marvel at some of the fiercest, most fascinating claws and teeth. Learn how dinosaurs and birds are connected, find out the biggest prehistoric mysteries that scientists are still trying to crack, and sink your teeth into some seriously supersize dino stats.

My Review/Thoughts~

The National Geographic Kids Books have made such a difference in my household. My older kids have read all 3 books and even read books 2 and 3 to my younger kids. They have been taking care of each other which puts a smile in my heart. I even read my youngest book and I loved everything about it. Everyone in my house loves anything National Geographic. My kids were over the moon to find that there is a Kids National Geographic just for them. They could have not been happier. As a Mom, I could not have been happier to have them fall in love with something that is educational for them.

Their website made it easy for me to create a custom heart locket. I picked out a double picture locket with clip art on the front and a special engraving on the backside.
