10-05-07. Nearly all dealers are out of
stock on this item. I was told by GunVault, that their entire
current inventory and expected shipments, have been dedicated
to very large chainstores.
As a result of their priority favoring the
LARGE buying power, the rest of their dealers will have to take a
backseat and will not receive any inventory until after the 1st of
the Year.
As a retailer I can personally report, that
the immediate failure rate for a NEW right out of the box GVB 2000
is approximately 15%. I do not have any statistics for vaults
that are over one week old, as these failure would be reported to
GunVault and not me. This 15% Failure Rate, can increase or
decrease based on future sales.
I recommend the BioVault 2.0. In my
opinion, the increased security and a more reliable fingerprint
reader, make it well worth the difference in
price. Go To BioVault 2.0 Click

** From Secure to Access in Seconds
**
GunVault gun safes are truly premium
security products that set the standard for the rest of the
industry. The patented No-Eyes® Keypad
and Bio pad provide
lightning-quick access, even in the dark. Choose the Mini,
Multi, or BioVault when you need
quick-access storage for your handgun - or the
HomeVault when you want space for additional
valuables.
WHY IS THIS VAULT BETTER
THAN THE COMPETITION? 
The GVB2000 Bio uses biometrics,
specifically fingerprint recognition, to access the safe contents. A
high-performance algorithm is used to achieve speedy identification
of enrolled fingerprints; and at the same time has a very
low False Reject Rate (FRR) for a given False Accept Rate
(FAR). This self-learning algorithm of the GunVault Bio adds new
minutiae to the fingerprint sensor, which decreases the likelihood
of FRR, updates slight changes that might occur over time to an
enrolled fingerprint, as well as to help distinguish variations
between the enrolled fingerprints. System can handle a maximum of
thirty fingerprint templates.

Like many other locks, the Biometric
Fingerprint Reader, comes in a variety of different qualities, or
grades if you will. As far as I am aware, at this time there
is no "Set Acceptable Standard" for these locks. This has allowed
for some inferior Biometric locks being put on a variety of products
by some Chinese manufacturers. This seems to have been caused
by the desire to, "Beat the competitions price".
Brand names used to be how a consumer
could somewhat judge, the quality of the product they were about to
purchase. However, times have certainly changed as many
manufacturers, or Importers seem to settle for an inferior made
product, so they can remain competitive. They know many
shoppers always shop for the absolute lowest price they can find,
before shelling out their hard earned bucks.
If the consumer does not have the
proper information, how can they make a good informed decision
before making a purchase? I guess I am not like most
retailers, that know very little about the products they sell.
I want to KNOW all I can before I sell it to you.
I personally picked a GVB2000 vault at
random and tested it, to see how well it opens. I entered my
fingerprint 50 times and got 50 openings, in a row. I was very
impressed. Hopefully, you will get the same results. I
was careful and tried to put the print exactly in the same place,
with the same amount of pressure as when I programmed the print into
the vault.
Here are some things that may help you
in your search to purchase a good biometric lock. I will use
the specifications for this lock as an example to compare to.
If you can find a lock, that beats these specifications, please
let me know, I want to buy it. A lot of inferior locks will
not advertise or mention the specifications on their locks.
They want to maximize the good points and minimize the bad points of
a product. They will not say, "It has good steel and paint,
but the lock is pretty much junk, but look how cheap we sell
it." Many times what they don't say can tell you as much about
a product, as what they do say. Believe me, if a product has a
good point, they will bring that to your attention, while not
mentioning the bad points. That is just good
marketing.
GVB2000 Specifications:
Fingerprint Sensor: 500 DPI optical
sensor
Verification Time : < 0.8 seconds. The time
to approve your print.
FRR: < 0.1% This stands for False Rejection Rate
for an authorized print.
FAR: < 0.0001% This stand for False Acceptance
Rate, for a print NOT authorized.
Below are some of the problems I
have experienced, in trying to find a quality Biometric
Fingerprint Lock to sell.
1. Some locks are very slow to open (5-6 Sec.)
when your finger is placed on them.
2. Sometimes the lock reader, will reject your
print. If your print is rejected three times in
a row, many locks will then lock you out,
for a specified amount of time.
3. They will reject your print if not placed,
"EXACTLY" in the same place each time.
4. They will accept prints that
are "NOT" programmed into them.
5. They have lost the memory of
"ALL" programmed prints, even though the battery
power is adequate.
