What do you use it for?
- nunobrito 2y agoThe IR blaster is the most common usage. After that, some games are good. Pass hours playing scorched earth while travelling. Also give it for my kids to play instead of letting use the phone and browse random stuff on youtube.
- copperx 2y agoI'm glad you've found an use for it. Its most common use is a paperweight at home.
- theshrike79 2y agoDunno about the current prices, but it was a REALLY expensive paperweight for a long time. People paid hundreds of dollars for one.
- sulandor 2y agonah - a "good" paperweight can easily rival the cost of a car
- reaperducer 2y agoI see you've been shopping with my wife.
- dogecoinbase 2y agoI simply park my car on top of papers that I want to keep in place -- one less paperweight to buy.
- sunnybeetroot 2y agoIs this the game? https://lab.flipper.net/apps/scorched_tanks https://lab.flipper.net/apps/scorched_tanks
- nunobrito 2y agoYeah. Flipper version is just another clone from https://www.whicken.com/scorch/ https://www.whicken.com/scorch/ The original one was funnier because you could change the config for the different weapons.
- _lvbh 2y agoNot OP but I still use mine quite frequently. - My family’s old subhz car keys are dying so I cloned it & use the flipper when the real one doesn’t work. It’s a car from before the 2000s so no security whatsoever. - Apartment, lift, gym rfid. Don’t need to bring multiple sets of cards - IR is also helpful as a backup while I procrastinate going out and buying batteries for some remotes.
- theturtletalks 2y agoI thought many gym and apartment key fobs can’t be replicated due to rolling keys. Has this been addressed or flipper works on older fobs?
- panki27 2y agoRolling keys is more of an RF thing, fobs are NFC or RFID (rolling key is still vulnerable to a simple replay attack). For NFC/RFID it depends entirely on the card. You can easily clone Mifare Classic, but on newer ones there's no way I know of, and the software does not (yet) have support for Legic (which has been broken for over a decade).
- _lvbh 2y agoI’m in Malaysia. We still think RFID is a new thing
- renewiltord 2y agoFriends and I make keyfobs to our apartment buildings. The HOA fee is $100. But the fob is a few cents.
- dpifke 2y agoMy dogs' microchips have a body temperature sensor. When one of them is acting like they might be sick, I can take their temperature with via my Flipper's RFID reader.
- kstrauser 2y agoNot OP, but I've used it to clone (my own!) hotel key cards. I've accidentally left my key in the room when I unlocked the door, then absentmindedly tossed the card onto the dresser instead of putting it right back into my wallet. It's nice to have a backup in my bag. Other hotels have an iPhone app you can use to unlock your door. That's another nice backup, but I've found I can have my Flipper out and the room door open faster than I can open my phone, find the app, launch it, inevitably have to log back in because it's been more than 30 seconds since I last opened it, etc.
