Got the same deal! Fantastic buy! I am very pleased with the purchase.Shiner Bock said:
I got the Cannon 64 with electronic lock for $599 from academy when they ran a clearance on them. The first two stores I called sold out of them within hours of the deal starting, and the third I called held the last one for me. Really heavy! Pleased with it overall.

Not to be an ass but legit question. Why would anyone ever buy a safe with anything electronic in it? I can't comprehend why anyone, ever, would do that under any circumstances.
It has a battery which will fail when you need it. It has to have a mechanical key anyway which defeats all kinds of points. To me a keypad or anything that requires electricity is a fatal design defect in a safe.
I thought the same thing when I bought mine (Cannon, Cabela's label), but they only had them with electronic locks and dial combos were special order. So I bought electronic.cbr said:

Good point. Let me know how that manual crank on your truck works out, or getting up to change the channel on your tv, or your old ma Bell wall phone. Batteries are here to stay, plenty of room on the wagon, jump on.cbr said:

In seriousness, as long as you open it up once in a while it lets you know when the battery is low. If you leave it for months, you might have problems, but probably not.
