Stop buying overpriced, finnicky, commercial metal seed storage solutions
You can buy a pack of stainless steel cards and an engraving pen from amazon for $20-30 total and have multiple backups for a fraction of the price of one of these commercial solutions
It's credit card sized, so it can easily and discreetly be placed in a wallet in a situation where you need to move it, cross a border, flee, etc.
It can withstand a fire just fine. See: https://imgur.com/a/ytPQWWf
All you need:
https://www.amazon.com/s?k=stainless+steel+card
https://www.amazon.com/s?k=engraving+pen
And when you're done, you can use the pen to mark your house keys, tools, or whatever other gear.
Alternately, go with the https://safu.ninja method and stick it in a capsule if you think it needs extra protection (it doesn't) https://www.amazon.com/s?k=edc+capsule, but I find the card form factor to be far superior. Good luck explaining what your giant chunk of metal is at airport security.
Stop buying overpriced bullshit. Spend it on sats.
