Compact Design with Click Mechanism
The compact MicroVault Click is easy to carry around in a pocket or on a keychain, and the click mechanism opens and closes the device just like a ballpoint pen - with a single push.

The exterior is also treated with an emboss process so users won't leave any fingerprints on the surface of the product.

The prism LED is visible from almost any angle and illuminates to indicate when the MicroVault is in use. This allows you to easily check the status of the data transfer so you can use it with confidence.
