Why Kids S.A.F.E. Foundation Recommends Kini for Responsible Gun Owners

Sharing a Review from Derek LeBlanc, Founder of Kids S.A.F.E. Foundation

Kids S.A.F.E Foundation takes a nonpolitical approach to children's firearm safety and accident prevention. So far, they have reached over 30,000 kids in Washington, Oregon, California, Arizona, Hawaii, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Arkansas. They have taught them the basic skills necessary to save their lives if they ever come across an unsecured firearm. They also have an anti-bullying component to their program as well. ZERO Firearm accidents is the only acceptable goal®!!

Here's what Derek says about Kini:

As a Safety Organization, we always seek new and innovative products. We recently met the husband and wife duo behind the “Kini” motion detector. Part of being a responsible gun owner is preventing unauthorized access to your firearm, which should be job one. We believe that gun safety education and secure storage go hand in hand. The team from Kini found us on Instagram, and we had a meeting to hear more about the sensor. What I appreciated about the concept was that there wasn’t a monthly fee. Other sensors on the market do require a monthly service fee. The Kini will only need wifi for it to send SMS alerts to your cell phone. They agreed to send us one of their Kini Motion Detector kits for us to try out and demo. My initial thoughts on the packaging and the setup were that it was well-designed for the end user. The initial setup was intuitive and simple to complete. There is an info card that features a QR code that makes the initial setup easy.

Before I used the Kini for the first time, I did top off the battery. It uses a USB to USBC cord, which is included with the kit, and charges quickly. Once I had it set up and customized to my liking for my intended purpose. I set out to put it through its paces. It was my goal to try different ways that I could use the sensor in a way that would make sense for responsible gun owners. The first trial was on my front door. I turned on the Kini and used the included lanyard to hang it from my doorknob. I closed the door, waited a few minutes, and opened the door. I opened the door, and the accelerometer inside the Kini was activated within 7-10 seconds, I received a text that the Kini detected movement. It worked!! It was a pretty smooth process and worked how it was advertised. Next up was my gun safe, I attached the Kini to the inside of the safe door. I waited a few minutes and opened the door. I received another text alert. Lastly, I tried it with my Vaultek VS 20I. I attached the Kini to the lid of my box via Velcro. In this safe is a Glock 47 that I use for home defense. I closed the lid, waited a few minutes, and opened up the safe. In a matter of seconds, I received another text alert. The Kini retails for $75, and we feel that it would be a good addition to the security plan of every responsible gun owner. You can find out more information on their website.
