Allegedly, if the key is not totally enclosed & therefore some of the key signal can "escape" they're no use. Paul,

The reception or transmission of radio waves, a form of electromagnetic radiation, to or from an antenna within a Faraday cage is heavily attenuated or blocked by the cage; however, a Faraday cage has varied attenuation depending on wave form, frequency or distance from receiver/transmitter, and receiver/transmitter power. Near-field high-powered frequency transmissions like HF RFID are more likely to penetrate. Solid cages generally attenuate fields over a broader range of frequencies than mesh cages.

As mentioned in another post, it doesn't really matter with Range Rovers as they usually break down within 10 minutes!! |

I can actually rest the key (in the faraday pouch) on the door handle and still the door will not unlock when I try it - can't get closer proximity than that! 2016 (L405) Autobiography in Black with Ivory - for ULEZ
