Appearance[]

Originally built by Philips, the Key Finder was a triangular plastic keyfob designed to locate mislaid keys by emitting a loud bleeping sound in response to a whistle. The device had been heavily modified by Q Branch to include a set of skeleton keys designed to unlock 90% of the world's locks, a magnetic fastening strip, and a stun-gas emitter (capable of disorientating an average person at a range of five feet for approximately 30 seconds) built into its speaker grille. It was armed by pressing a button at the top of the fob and triggered by whistling the first bars of Rule Britannia. A personalised actuating signal (in 007's case, a "wolf whistle") would trigger an integrated plastic explosive charge; sufficient to remove the door of any safe.
