    What, apart from opening some garage doors, can you do with these? I was looking into getting one but they seem extremely limited, especially for the price tag. If I remember correctly, there’s just an STM32 inside these things.

      Isn’t this the type of device that can be used to open cars that are unlocked when a certain transmitter is in proximity? I may be mistaking this for something else but I remember talk about a somewhat similar looking device that could (among lots of other things) be used to steal cars this way.

      I got one a while back and it’s fundamentally useless, even with attachments. If you’re actually going to do penetration testing you would be better off getting actual pentest devices. This is just a toy.
