Can these clone passive RFID dongles? My building uses them and they charge $60 for a copy. Not needing to buy a copy from my building would almost cover the cost of this device.


You can clone most RFID keys at the key-copying kiosks inside supermarkets. I turned my most-used key into a sticker that I put inside my phone case for $10.

It's pretty nice: one less thing to carry around.


I got written up for cloning my work badge. Nothing in the policy. I protected it as if it were my real work badge. If your shit can be cloned by $10 worth of eBay bs, why is that my problem?


Some. A well designed key card will be uncloneable.

Most are not well designed.


Yes, I've cloned a few RFID dongles with mine already. Work, a parking garage entrance, that sort of thing.


There are cheap RFID cloning devices on AliExpress for $10-$30 depending on what kind of card you have.


Definitely. I managed to clone my RFID enabled cards with mine.
