Belkin Reflective Secure Holder for the AirTag

Adrian Kingsley-Hughes/

Apple AirTags have been a real game changer for me in keeping track of things that I would regularly misplace, such as my keys. But there's one problem that the AirTag doesn't solve -- how to find your stuff in low light.

The best AirTag accessories

From key chains to mounts, here are the top AirTag accessories available today.

For example, your keys are at the bottom of a bag. Or you've dropped your keys into undergrowth. You'd think the sound, along with the brilliant white of the AirTag would mean that this wasn't a problem, but in my experience, this is not the case.

Even a shiny, noisy white disk can become quite invisible, doubly so when you need to find it in a hurry.

I wish the AirTag had a LED built into it to make it stand out in low-light conditions (maybe we'll see this when Apple comes out with the AirTags Pro).

But for now, we have to come up with a different solution. And that's exactly what Belkin has done with theReflective Secure Holder for the AirTag .

How well does it reflect light in the dark? 

Really well! 

That ring of reflective paint really shows up with the smallest amount of light, making it easy to find your AirTag (and whatever is attached to it!).

Yes, it's really shiny!

As an added bonus, the raised edges of the holder protects the AirTag from scratches and other damage.

The holder doesn't affect the AirTag's range or the loudness of the speaker, which is a winner.

You can buy thesesingly for under$13 , which is a lot cheaper than theAirtag holders that Apple makes , but if you want a 4-pack you'll have to head over to Apple, where they are sold exclusively, again at aquite reasonable price of$49.95 .
