<p>[QUOTE=&quot;benveniste, post: 2541505, member: 25547&quot;]If you take a look at the requirements for an UL-rated Residential Security Container, this shouldn&#039;t be a surprising result.&nbsp; The &quot;5-minute&quot; test for a USC assumes a single operator and no tools over 18 inches in length.&nbsp; Nevada Safe, of course, knew this when they set up this demonstration.</p><p><br /></p><p>Is such a &quot;safe&quot; better than nothing?&nbsp; Probably.&nbsp; On the downside, it tells thieves where the rest of the &quot;good stuff&quot; is after they already grabbed the jewelry and drugs.&nbsp; On the upside, it satisfies many insurance companies (at least for firearms) and meets legal requirements in California and several other states.&nbsp; And it&#039;s enough to thwart most individual thieves and many less-experienced teams.</p><p><br /></p><p>So once again, it comes down to &quot;paranoia versus pocketbook.&quot;&nbsp; A &quot;real&quot; TL-15 gun safe of the size shown in the video would cost at least $5000 to buy and install.&nbsp; A smaller &quot;real&quot; safe for coin collections is considerably less expensive.&nbsp; So depending on relative value, the different levels of protection may make sense.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
