MOTORCYCLE/BICYCLE GARAGE GROUND/WALL ANCHOR 4.5M STEEL BIKE LOCK CABLE/CHAIN

The 'coils up automatically' feature not appropriate for my requirement
I wished to use the cable to loop through the various parts of my wife's mobility scooter so that all the detachable units were protected. However, the fact that the cable is determined to return to its tightly coiled state made it extremely difficult to thread it through the various gaps. The slightly 'sticky' effect of the plastic covering did not help either. I eventually obtained an alternative version that cme as a much larger coil, that straightened fairly easily.

Just what I was after
Small problem with old unlock code present, but I was able to do a factory reset to clear.
We have poor landline Broadband in the village where I live, near Bridgwater, Somerset, UK, with 1.2 Mb/s max download speed, so I considered trying 4G. However, on the 4G Coverage maps the area around my house shows up as Coverage outdoors, but NOT indoors. A friend recommended the Unlocked HUAWEI E5573 s-320 150MBPS 3G 4G LTE MOBILE BROADBAND WIFI INTERNET dongle, which has the facility for connecting an external aerial - and suggested the 35dbi TS9 3G 4G LTE External Antenna to go with it so as to improve reception.
I got a 30-Day SIM only contract with EE for 15Gb per month for £20 a month, and the system worked out of the box. The antenna was stuck on the inside of a bedroom window that faces where I think local masts are likely to be, and gave me a reliable connection - especially in view of my being in this black spot, so I was pleased with the the antenna. Regarding the dongle, the internal Wi-Fi coverage around my house was as good - if not better - than my old landline router with two antennae.
However, because I wanted network connections on my system, and the ability to change easily back to my landline connection (when my 15G runs out!), I changed the dongle for a TP-Link MR6400 4G Router. This has two external antennae for the 4G signal, so I tried using the LTE External Antenna in their place (after I got two TS9/SMA adapters), but there was no improvement in the signal level, so I reverted back to the ones supplied with the router.
I've kept the dongle and LTE antenna so that I can swap over the SIM card when I want mobile reception away from home, and think the antenna is good value as long as you can point it in the right direction as its high gain is at the expense of NOT being omi-directional.
