BILLCONCH Smart Gun Safe with Fingerprint, App, Keypad,LCD& Security Cable

Needed a gun safe for my Byrna SD which is a rather hard pistol to get either a small safe or a holder to fit it. This Safe fits my Byrna just perfectly with a tiny bit of wiggle room top to bottom with plenty of extra space side to side. I just ordered this pretty gun safe a few days ago and item showed up quickly, it is a very beautiful red color with some design to it. Battery was easy to install, fingerprint scanner works great and wasn't hard to program at all. Key access is hidden behind a rubber cap. Seems like it will be durable enough with its weight and design. Overall extremely happy with this item so far.

Super easy to set up and very sturdy. The fingerprint scanner works great, light works good. Not super heavy or large. I feel very confident in this safe's ability of keeping my stuff secure. Also the app that you can pair is super convenient. You can open it from there and It tells you when it was last opened and how it was opened. Highly recommend this safe if you need something compact and affordable!

I've had this safe for a few days now and so far everything is working as it should. Set up fingerprints with no problem, access code with no problem, set up the app with an Android phone and that is working as it should as well. The key with setting up the app with an Android phone is to make sure Bluetooth and location are both on, otherwise it won't work. It's a really nice heavy duty safe and it opens virtually immediately with any of the methods you choose to open it. It's plenty big enough for my purposes and it's nicely padded all the way around the inside. Another cool feature is the date and time and battery level. When you set up the app it automatically sets the date and time for you so you don't need to manually do it. It obviously syncs the date and time from your phone to the safe. There's a lot of technology built into this safe and app. If anything changes I'll update this review, but so far I couldn't be more impressed and pleased with this purchase. I did have some questions before I purchased this safe so I reached out to customer service and they were very responsive with answering all my questions. I'm just really impressed with everything about the safe and customer service, couldn't ask for more. Edit/Update: I just want to comment on some other reviewers that are having problems. The default when the safe is new is for any fingerprint to open the safe. You absolutely must set an administrator fingerprint to secure the safe for specific biometric fingerprint access. Also, one of the really great features of this particular safe is that you have to scan your fingerprint six times before it will take. That is a huge Plus, don't buy a biometric safe that only requires three scans. When you scan your fingerprint six times, you should turn your finger slightly each time and move it up and down slightly in different positions. That way your fingerprint doesn't have to be in the exact same position each time. It's a fantastic feature and it works flawlessly. I opted for the larger version of this safe as, among other additional features, this one has dual latches instead of just one. Update 2: I've been using this safe for about 6 weeks now and I open it at least three or four times a day, the vast majority of time using only a finger tip scan. Sometimes I use the six digit code just to check that functionality. I fully charged it when I got it and it is still showing that the battery is fully charged, very impressive. And it's still working as it should, absolutely no issues at all.

I purchased the larger version of this safe, and so far it has been exactly what I was looking for. The setup process was quick and straightforward. The on-screen instructions made everything easy to understand, and I had the safe configured in just a few minutes. Pairing it with the app was simple, and the app has worked flawlessly so far. I like being able to manage fingerprints and settings from my phone instead of having to do everything directly on the safe. The fingerprint scanner has also been very reliable. It recognizes my fingerprint quickly and unlocks without any issues, which is important when you want fast access. It’s nice knowing there are multiple backup options as well, including a PIN code and physical keys, just in case they’re ever needed. Capacity was another reason I chose this model. I ordered the larger size, and it comfortably holds the two handguns I intended to store with room for a few other small valuables. The interior padding helps keep everything protected, and the built-in LED light is a nice touch when opening it in a darker room. The construction feels solid, the lid opens smoothly, and the rechargeable battery means I don’t have to constantly replace batteries. Overall, it gives me confidence that my firearms are secure while still being quickly accessible when needed. Based on my experience so far, this has been a great purchase. If you’re looking for a biometric handgun safe that’s easy to set up, has a dependable fingerprint reader, a well-designed app, and multiple ways to unlock it, I would definitely recommend this one.

I was skeptical ordering this because I prefer and try to buy American made products whenever I can for a number of reasons, but brand name safes this size from the US with these features are hard to find 100% made in the US and usually cost at least twice as much. Several I looked at were made in the US but with some imported parts, mainly the electronics and push button keypads, and they had less than average reviews for quality, so I bought this instead. This company is based in Texas, and these safes are made overseas. It’s well made, solid, has 2 lock latches, and as far as I can tell, has no flaws where it can be opened easily, accidently or intentionally, while bypassing the three secure locking methods. It’s perfect for what I need it for. Wanted a smaller sized safe to keep my handgun safely locked up out of kids reach. So far so good with the electronics. Very easy to set up. Great customer support. I had a minor issue when I received the safe, emailed a message on the website, and had an answer that resolved the issue in less than a day. This will not replace a heavier, higher security safe, but if you need a reliable safe that’ll lock up a couple medium sized handguns or one large gun, is easy to set up, opens everytime with the fingerprints, has a backup combination and key entry, great price and excellent customer support, you can’t go wrong.

UPDATE: Company is super-responsive and cares about their products and customers. I wrote an email describing in detail the issues - and they wrote back within hours and had done a bunch of research to find out they have a new part with a cut-out that will fix the problem of the ribbon cable getting worn. They even sent a picture of the new part and comms with the engineers. Very impressed with BillConch. It's been a few weeks - safe working great - love it! Hello! My name is Aaron, I own and operate a computer repair and service business for the past 13 years in Richmond, VA. As an electronics technician, electronics hobbyist designer, computer systems engineer and union electrician of 20 years - I would like to offer some constructive criticism to the company, a simple repair/fix on their assembly line, and a fix for current and future owners that may see the following behavior of the BILLCONCH Model:B1 Gun Safe. While it was disappointing to have an issue, I really like the safe, the features, the build quality, etc. I would have given it 5-stars on Amazon if not for my “issue”. Since I was able to diagnose and repair the problem, I’m still keeping it – so, let that be a testament to this product! Thanks! After repair, everything seems to work great, including rejecting fingerprints - which seems to be a complaint - where it "accepts any fingerprint". I did not find this to be true and FP appears to accept/reject fine. I propose that perhaps this issue is also causing issues for others and their unit's ability to recognize/reject their prints. PROBLEM: 1. Unit does not turn on or respond/charge with battery or USB cable. 2. Unit turns off while pressing on fingerprint reader or on plastic bezel with very little, to moderate pressure (Specifically to the right, or right lower side of the FR). In my specific case, on arrival(!) - the unit worked fine during setup, inserted codes and fingerprints and charged the battery (which came practically fully charged!). I later (same day) observed the unit turn off instantly while enrolling a second user. The unit did not turn back on without somewhat forcefully tapping on the bezel, between the fingerprint reader and the speaker grill. I was then able to repeat the “instant off” condition by applying slight pressure on the bezel, while “lifting” the bezel from the frame ever-so-slightly caused the unit to power back on. Sometimes the unit would “stay-off” while other times it would turn on and off based on if the bezel had downward pressure applied or not. DIAGNOSIS and OBSERVATIONS: 1. A SCREW that affixes the PCB to the rear of the bezel may cause a direct-short condition. The screw is one of two screws, located beneath the flat-flex ribbon cable responsible for connecting the GND, 3.3V and LED ring-light power to the Fingerprint reader’s daughter-board. In my case, the small, Phillips-Head screw had “sharp points” that had pierced the flat-flex ribbon cable, direct-shorting the 3.3v and GND lines – causing the unit to turn off. A. The back cover/bottom of the control panel ever-so-slightly bulges at the location of the screw/ribbon cable, indicating there is no extra room between the black “backing panel” and the cable/screw. When the front panel is screwed down flat, the flat-flex ribbon cable is being pressed into the PCB mounting screw, causing rubbing and ultimately, an electrical short. Providing extra room here would solve the issue, but may be unacceptable, as it would increase the overall height of the control panel and require substantial retooling and manufacturing of a new part. B. The screw responsible for the damage has a slightly taller head than the other mounting screws, maybe by a half a millimeter. Using a flatter, thinner screw head would also fix this issue. C. The screw pierced the flat-flex ribbon cable due to what looks like the “witness marks” of the driver that put it in… that is, the screw’s cross-pattern deformed slightly while being torqued down, causing metal spikes at the four inner-corners of the cross-pattern. A better machined screw head or a higher hardness screw would fix this, likely. SUGGESTED CHANGE FOR COMPANY/ASSY LINE: 1. Apply a small piece of Kapton tape over the screws, below the ribbon cable. FIX FOR USERS: 1. Remove the 4 rubber grommets and screws located on the front panel. 2. Remove the back cover by snapping the back cover away from the tabs and expose the rear circuit boards and electronics of the front control panel. 3. Unlock the flat-flex ribbon cable from the far-side labeled GND-3.3V-LED by moving the black plastic clip horizontally, away from the connector by a millimeter or two. 4. Remove the flat-flex cable from the connector and flip the cable up and back, inspect for damage and identify if your screw has pierced your cable. If so, I removed the screw and used a small metal file to file the screw head flat, eliminating the tiny ridges/spikes that were causing the damage and making the screw less-tall. Then, apply a piece of Kapton tape or perhaps electrical tape over the screws, located below the cable. Reassemble and good luck!

This handgun safe exceeded my expectations. The build quality is excellent, the steel construction feels solid, and it gives me confidence that my firearm is stored securely while still being quickly accessible when needed. I really like having multiple ways to unlock it. The fingerprint reader is fast and accurate, the keypad is easy to use, the app setup was straightforward, and having a backup key provides extra peace of mind. The built-in LED light is also a thoughtful feature that makes it much easier to access the contents in the dark. The safe is the perfect size for a nightstand, operates quietly, and the battery life has been excellent. Setup only took a few minutes, and everything worked as advertised right out of the box. If you’re looking for a secure, reliable, and easy-to-use biometric handgun safe with several quick-access options, this is an outstanding choice. Five stars.

This is an amazing product I absolutely love the app! It’s very easy to use, and the finger spring feature works incredibly well. It has exceeded my expectations by lasting much longer than I anticipated. The quality is outstanding, and everything functions exactly as advertised. I’m genuinely impressed with my experience and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable product. I’ll definitely be referring my friends and family because it’s worth every penny.
