Was the last number 23, or 32? Wait, is this even my lock? If you’ve ever been late for class or stuck at the gym because of a frozen analog combo lock, you’re in luck.

Master Lock’s dialSpeed electronic combination padlock features a touch sensitive panel that enables you to unlock the dialSpeed by entering a series of center-up/down, center-left/right swipes. This electronic padlock also has the ability to set up to 3 guest combinations. What’s more, you can also retrieve your lost key from the internet. The dialSpeed draws its power from a CR 2032 battery that offers enough juice for up to 5-year. The Master Lock dialSpeed is currently available for $24.99. [Product Page]
Who doesn’t remember using combination locks at school or at your gym? Well it looks like Master Lock has taken it upon itself to push the old combination lock into the future, thanks to its new padlock, which features an electronic interface.
The Master Lock DialSpeed Padlock has a light-up interface where the combination wheel should be, and it allows you to program multiple personalized codes, as well as setting up a permanent master code if you should forget your code. It has a boron carbide shackle, a wide metal body that’s easy to grasp and easy to open with one hand.
The DialSpeed Padlock sells for $25(USD). The only real flaw I can see with this is that it is battery powered, though the battery should give you five years of service before needing a replacement.

You can customize the code, create multiple unlock codes and if you’ve forgotten ’em all, use a master code. More »
