This video details a destructive testing of a Taplock smart padlock, subjecting it to various firearm calibers from .22LR up to .50 AE and 12 gauge slugs. The test aimed to determine the lock's resilience against ballistic impacts, evaluating its ability to remain functional or intact after being shot. While the lock's smart features like fingerprint and Bluetooth unlock cease to function when electronics are destroyed, the physical integrity of the lock was surprisingly robust against smaller calibers.
