We did some testing on this. We tried all kinds of aluminum enclosures and the FOFAs still found a way to work. We also tried putting FOFAs in refrigerators and that still worked (maybe the rubber seal let the radio in) Maybe a lead wallet would stop them? We have not tested that yet!

I don't believe so no. However i dont recomend the item if you need it to last and hold more than two cards. If there is more than four cards the wallet has trouble closing. And it began to fall apart within the first three weeks.

Hi Elaine -- If your card has an RFID chip in it, it will have an extra shiny spot, usually with some sort of logo identifying the company. Almost all new cards now have them. and you can ask a store or bank to scan the card for you while it is still in its sleeve. If they can't read it, the sleeve works (that's what I did) Good luck! and happy holiday.......

Yes! that's what I do and it's been a big help. It has worked for a few months now i think. The wallet being in highly muffling things like coats can both block the signal and muffle the beep, but generally it works.

If you follow the manufacturer's directions, the cards should work. Consider your wallet as a sandwich with the RFID cards as the 2 slices of bread, and all your cards as the peanut butter and jelly. Easy and effective.

The magnet is strong, so I would say it's definitely possible. I don't keep any cards in the slotted side, since it looks like it would be a really tight fit. The phone cover/wallet is so great, I love it & am constantly having people ask me where I got it. I keep my credit cards in my wallet so I would suggest you do the same so nothing happens. Hope this helps!

It clips in to a plastic casing inside the leather wallet. It fits perfectly. I literally just got this phone wallet yesterday and I love it.

I'm not sure if you read the previous answer. The battery has something to do with NFC/Google wallet. You're right about the NFC clip/hardware is built into the phone itself. However, to make it function you need an antenna and it's build into the battery. So if you buy a battery which is NOT NFC compatible, which means it DOES NOT has the antenna build into it. Therefore your NFC function might not work. I've test and proved it. About the battery, I had bought 8 Hyperion battery for different Samsung phone already. I'm lucky so far I don't have any problem.

See the picture of the description?The manufacturer suggestion is: your cards, ie: atm, credit cards, drivers license, will have to be in BETWEEN the scanner cards for it to work. Hope this helps.

Not feasible unless you have specialized equipment. If it is the lighter, it is chrome plated. If you try to sand or grind the scratches, you will expose the brass. If the wallet, not sure, I think it is stainless steel. Contact Zippo, they have a world class C/S operation.

I ended up returning the item because it was too big for the wallet it needed to fit into. Sorry!

I haven't tried it but the wallets is constructed like this. The phone snaps into a plastic cover that is attached to the leather wallet, so you would have two barriers to go through and from what I understand you cant have too much between the phones, that is why the S4 back cover is so thin on the phone.

I'm not sure what you mean by 'contactless'; there's nothing to scratch the card itself. As far as does it work, I think so, the only way to really tell would be if you cold test trying to 'read' the info off the card, which I can't test. I guess it's a matter of piece of mind. These are an inexpensive alternative to a blocking wallet.

I would say no. The barrel length of the grommet is only 3/16 long and my guess is between you chain width and wallet thickness these grommets will be too small. Are there larger/longer grommets available?

None so far with me. I actually have elliminated my wallet. I carry one card (two only when I know for sure I might use it), my drivers license and of course some cash in the folder. When you slide the cards in all the way all one can see is about 1/8th inch of the card.

It's simply a wallet for your phone which typically is 3G 4G or LTE. If you exclusively want to interfere with rf frequencies then I suggest a jammer

In my opinion, no; not unless you are comfortable with a very thick wallet. My husband does have something similar that we got years ago (from a drug store, if I remember correctly) that truly is the size and thickness of a credit card. I have found these difficult to find again. It has a very small reading "window" compared to the Mighty Bright, which we find more useful overall.
