The Theft Recovery Microchips

These are the microchips that use radio frequency identification to verify the ownership of stolen items. Using the same technology for identifying lost pets, you register each chip with an item using a proprietary global database. Any item recovered after a theft will reveal a chip's hidden presence and its owner during a scan by law enforcement personnel or dealers--the chip will still signal ownership even if a thief has removed or altered an item's original serial number. At 1/2" long and no thicker than the lead of a pencil at 3/32", a chip can be permanently implanted inside a belonging, such as a guitar's endblock, a painting's wooden frame, or a firearm's stock using the included 3/32" drill bit (requires drill). An existing screw hole can be deepened or a new hole can be drilled to an optimal scanning depth of 1 1/2". A chip also adheres to plastic, metal, or wood surfaces when drilling isn't practical or desired using the included tube of epoxy. Includes five microchips. (1 oz.)
