32 whole gigabytes worth. And it feels as chintzy  and cheesy as you would expect from a cheap Chinese product found on eBay for less than a fin. Hopefully this one will be more reliable than a car made by VW...

Not gonna lie, I kinda love this concept. How’s the weight? My first concern would be it being too big and heavy to be hanging from a USB port

The USB part has a pretty good heft to it, which came as a bit of a surprise. The rest of it is very lightweight, so I don’t think you’d have to worry about the weight damaging the USB port by dangling too far out. I wouldn’t want to have it plugged in whilst  attached to a keychain as that extra weight would certainly damage the port - just ask GM. :/

32GB eh... Just hope it’s not actually a 1 GB stick faking it, which is extremely common, especially with sources like eBay and Aliexpress . Run a full scan with h2testw before you put anything on it.

Thanks for that info. I wanted to give it a good test first  but didn’t know what software to use.

doesn’t look as heavy as the “jump jet” i made for my brother years ago. which was just light enough to work.

My Mk6 was pretty unreliable but at least it had the key that’s patterned after. Which is the greatest key ever.
