00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:11,440
Want a portable power bank, wireless AP SD card, and USB reader for your mobile

2
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:15,679
devices? Check the link in the video description to learn more about the ADA

3
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:21,920
Dash Drive Air AE400. Now, the irony of a product that is designed to uh prevent

4
00:00:19,279 --> 00:00:26,800
theft of your devices is that it comes in the most like theft proof packaging I

5
00:00:25,519 --> 00:00:30,960
think I've ever seen. You can't even open the thing. And now I've gone and ripped up the user manual. It's okay

6
00:00:29,519 --> 00:00:36,559
though cuz we have another one. This is the Anova Pro Tag. So, the idea of this

7
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:40,399
is that it's a card-sized device. So, you can see it's quite slim, designed to

8
00:00:38,719 --> 00:00:44,320
fit in your wallet or your purse or your passport holder or whatever else that

9
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:47,200
helps protect your belongings and makes it harder for you to lose your

10
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:50,160
smartphone, which I personally think is a good thing. All right. It uses

11
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:54,160
Bluetooth. It's compatible with Android and Blackberry smartphones. It can sync

12
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:57,120
to your mobile slot and Okay, why don't we just do what it actually does? Okay.

13
00:00:55,680 --> 00:01:01,840
So, the phone alarm rings when you exceed the predetermined distance from your belongings, which is preset to 10

14
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:04,879
m, but can be adjusted. And it allows you to secure your mobile phone to you

15
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:08,159
can track down your stolen phone via SMS. If the SIM card is replaced, new

16
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:13,040
number details will be sent to you. That's very cool as well. So, it has 150

17
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:17,200
hour long battery life and is chargeable via a built-in USB cable. So, let's go

18
00:01:15,439 --> 00:01:21,600
ahead and have a look at the actual device itself. So, there's three

19
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:25,000
different uh buttons or things on here. One looks like an LED indicator. The

20
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:29,119
next thing says power/discovery. And the last one says

21
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:33,439
distance. So it looks like that's how you configure the distance. Over here

22
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:38,159
appears to be the built-in USB connector. So you can slide that out

23
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:42,479
with a simple little thumb slider right here. Slide that in and out. And you can

24
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:45,840
charge it for that 150 hour battery. So let's go ahead and fire this up. There's

25
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:51,439
an app that you install on your phone, obviously. So let's see if we hold that

26
00:01:49,399 --> 00:01:54,159
down. Look at that. Comes with a little bit. Oh, no. It's flashing blue and red.

27
00:01:53,200 --> 00:02:00,240
So, we're going to figure out how to use this, and then we're going to do a quick uh test here. So, there's basically

28
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:04,479
three main menu things here. So, number one is the settings. So, you can set it

29
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:07,600
up to send an SMS to your saved number when the SIM change is detected. And

30
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:12,239
then you can also do mobile tracking with SMSing Protag base password to your

31
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:16,480
phone's to your mobile number to track your phone's location. So, there's a default password which you can change.

32
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:21,120
You can also change your alarm settings, whether you want it to ring on silent,

33
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:26,000
and uh what volume you want it to use when the phone itself is on silent. Next

34
00:02:23,599 --> 00:02:30,640
up, you've got adding Protag devices. So, all you need to do to do this is

35
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:35,519
hold power/discovery until it flashes blue and red. So, hopefully that'll

36
00:02:32,959 --> 00:02:39,920
happen pretty quickly here. There we go. So, blue and red flashing. Then you

37
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:43,120
click add device and it works like pretty much any other Bluetooth thing

38
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:45,840
where it takes a second and then fires up.

39
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:56,480
So, that takes about 10 seconds. And once that's done, it gives you a little popup showing you how it pretty much

40
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:59,360
works. So, you can snooze the alarm if you go too far away from the device. So,

41
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:04,519
you can set an amount of time. Don't bother me about this for a little bit. You can stop monitoring until you start

42
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:08,640
it again manually, or you can immediately continue to monitor it, say

43
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:12,560
if you move closer to it, and you're ready to go. Okay, so we've got Protags

44
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:18,040
one and two. So, I'm going to go ahead and call this one. I'm going to change

45
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:20,800
the little setting here.

46
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:24,000
Wallet. Okay. It helps if you spell wallet right. There you go. So, I'm

47
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:27,599
going to take this one and put it in my wallet. So, just for comparison, this is

48
00:03:25,519 --> 00:03:31,599
3 mm, which isn't quite the thickness of a card, but it's the same shape as a

49
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:35,360
card, which makes it sort of something that at least can fit in a wallet. My

50
00:03:33,920 --> 00:03:39,200
wallet's not that big, but it fits in there just fine. So, the Let's go

51
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:44,640
through the rest of the settings for our wallet device. So, there's a last disconnected date and time, last known

52
00:03:42,239 --> 00:03:50,239
location, which you can check, as well as a proximity alert. So, the device is

53
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:52,560
already within range, and connected. Uh,

54
00:03:50,239 --> 00:03:55,599
delete this device. And that is pretty much it. So, let's go ahead and let's go

55
00:03:54,480 --> 00:04:01,599
ahead and see how it works. So, I'm going to try and leave my wallet on the unboxing table, and I'll take this one

56
00:03:59,519 --> 00:04:04,640
with me because I don't want anything bad to happen. So, it's time for a

57
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:08,239
practical test. Now, while this isn't the sort of thing I'd see myself using

58
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:11,760
every day, it's the kind of thing that maybe while I'm traveling would be

59
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:16,479
incredibly useful. So, you throw one of them in, say, for example, your luggage.

60
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:20,720
You throw one of them in your wallet and hope you don't lose your phone. So,

61
00:04:17,840 --> 00:04:25,040
unlike the Kensington Proximo, an alarm doesn't go off cuz that one uses little

62
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:28,080
fobs that you can put on your keys, for example. And that one has an alarm that

63
00:04:26,639 --> 00:04:31,680
goes off on the fob that tells you if you left your phone behind, which is

64
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:36,400
kind of neat as well, but only works on iPhone 4S and iPhone 5, whereas this one

65
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:39,919
is Android. So, there's there's some different sort of uh advantages and

66
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:43,680
disadvantages you got away. But I just want to show you guys basically how long

67
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:47,199
it'll take for me to go, okay, wallet secured. So, I'm going to put that in

68
00:04:45,199 --> 00:04:50,639
the pocket where I also have my luggage pro tag. Then, I've got my wallet

69
00:04:49,199 --> 00:04:58,000
protag, which I put in my wallet. I'm going to accidentally drop my wallet on the concrete and walk away.

70
00:04:55,280 --> 00:05:04,960
So, we'll see how far I get. I'm at my motorbike. There's B-roll's

71
00:05:00,759 --> 00:05:07,120
car. And oh, there it goes. So, I can

72
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:12,360
snooze the alarm, stop monitoring, or reconnect. So, you lost your belonging

73
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:16,960
wallet. Let's go ahead and go back there. And I'm going to try and

74
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:20,000
reconnect and see if it can uh see if it can pick that back up for

75
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:27,840
me. There we go. wallet is now secured

76
00:05:25,199 --> 00:05:30,800
and on now that I have been reunited with it. Thank you for checking out my

77
00:05:29,199 --> 00:05:36,520
unboxing and first look at the Protag. Don't forget to subscribe to Lance Tech for more unboxings, reviews, and other
