    Well done 👍 I learned decoding these ABUS locks from your videos quite a while back. Thanks for sharing these Tips and Tricks, it really helped me a lot to understand what's going on in these combination locks 👌👌

      @@Potti314 Hello Potti 👋, while attending a conference, I had the opportunity to further experiment with ABUS locks as a way to keep my hands occupied 😅. During my testing, I noticed something peculiar about these locks, which you also discovered in your video. Specifically, when you decoded the lock and dialed wheel 1 to number 6 (true gate 8) at 2:12, you observed that the wheel felt loose. Later at 2:27, when you dialed 7 (true gate 9), you noticed the wheel felt loose again. After some investigation, I found that this behavior is not a coincidence. The false gates, which are two numbers smaller than the true gate, will always feel almost like a true gate and will also affect the feedback you receive on the other wheels. Therefore, if you have two loose spots, they will always be the higher numbers. I have developed a technique that takes advantage of this vulnerability, and I would be thrilled if you could take a look and let me know your thoughts. You can find my technique in my video number 182. I wish you all the best, Cheers 🍻

  • @liebefriedenworldwide8780

    That's some skill I wanna learn, to know what's inside the package before you opened it.

  • @3969-fba
    @3969-fba Před rokem

    Fantastic explanation. My problem is similar but in reverse: I have an abus 155/40 that is open but I don't remember the combination I used the first time and now I am unable to close it. The factory combination 0000 no longer works. Can you help me?

  • @thedownwardmachine
    @thedownwardmachine Před rokem

    Nice, when I tried to figure this lock out I just went for the gates true or false and brute forced it. Because there are five per dial, that means 5^3=125 possibilities (vs 1000) for a three dial and 5^4=625 (vs 10000) for a 4 dial model. But your technique is clearly better!

    • @Potti314
      @Potti314  Před rokem

      I'm here for the fun of it. Brute force methods are far less enjoyable ;-)

    Hey @Potti314,
    Now I’ve watched a lot of unlocking videos but I’m not able to do this with mine.
    Would you be interested to try your skills on my two SKB 1SKB-PDL padlocks?
    I’m from Austria and would send them to you.
    Kind regards and congrats to your skills.

      I think you need to look at methods for resetting the number.

      I took a long timevto crack the code.
      But with practice you know what to do and it becomes easy or easier.
      I found the second gate was easy and always gave the same number.
      The third and fourth gave me one number correct and one number wrong
      The first I got completely the wrong number.
      But the combinations are reduced from 10000 to a handful
      For each possibility of 2nd, 3rd or 4th I turned the first wheel and hey presto the lock opened
      I am sure with practice it becomes more obvious what to do
      I found listening also helped with a definite change of sound when you are on the correct number ( lock held in tension ) plus a definite movement too.
