It worked for a while and then stopped. It's been so long I can't remember if the battery was replaceable.

I have used them on Keys, tools, Electrical panels, and many other items. I have them on my keys for Deadbolts, padlocks, RV, and many other places that I needed quick convenient light. Once you have one, you will realize how convenient this product is. Take my advice, buy this product, you will be clad that you did! The Nano-Light is such a great product.

I have never actually used the key to unlock the door, but the option is there (I just took out my key fob to see if I even have the key). As for a warning, the top button which will flash and beep at you when the 9v battery is low (not all the time - just when you are using it). @Julie: yes and yes.

If the battery dies, there's a regular key lock that you can use right? Is there any warning to let you know that the battery is failing? @thsu: I assume that the electronic locks run on a battery.

It's hard to describe how liberating it is to not have to worry about your house key, but once you've gotten used to it, you'll never go back to a regular lock again. I bought mine from Home Depot, not Amazon, but more people seem to have written reviews for Amazon....

Back-lit door locks would really be the answer to all of this. If they can get the thickness down to that of a watch battery, then they’ll have something.

The review does a great job showing how the light works, and I love how the light is small enough to take anywhere. What an interesting product!
