What’s said
The transcript

Will our lock stop an angle grinder? The short answer is no. Long answer, still no. We didn't create the Locked Car Defender to be a 100% theft-proof solution because nothing is. And if anyone's telling you they can guarantee you that, they're selling you a pipe dream. Locked was made to give car owners two things, a visible deterrent against would-be thieves and a compact solution they can use within 5 seconds. And if you're not sold, you've got 120 days to send it back for a full refund. Plus, every order comes with a free Faraday key pouch, so your keys are protected too. Thousands of Aussies have already switched. Hit the link below, you won't regret it.
