Are you guys talking about the auto jigglers? I have some of those and have the pin tumbler version coming in the mail.

Yeah. They work like charm! I never used the pin tumbler jigglers tough...

Yeah. Theyre the southord ones, even if southord gets them from china. Anyways, they can be used in wafer locks.

I want a set of those jigglers for the padlocks. I just dont have the money atm

I know what you mean.I am getting some serious coin tied up in this "hobby",but hey,I'm having fun so things could be worse!
I received those Southords yesterday. They work really well on wafers and SOME pin tumblers,but so far on most of my lock collection,SPP has been quicker for me.I'm sure that some of it is due to my noobness!

Be aware that Southord has 2 sets of jigglers: The Auto Jigglers and Pin Tumbler Jigglers.
Auto Jigglers are for wafer locks (as auto locks are usually wafers) and Pin Tumbler Jigglers are for, you got that right, Pin Tumblers

I only have experience with the Auto Jigglers and they do wonders on cheap wafers. The Pin Tumbler Jigglers are (as I heard, never used them) very good, but take a fair amount of practice untill you get proeficient with them. I don't remember if it was BosnianBill or Kokomolock that managed to consistently open locks with spools with those. But other members that got them couldn't open anything for a fair bit of time.

Bottom line is, they are good. But you need skill to use them, so they're not a "magic trick" to open locks.

What about pin tumber jigglers, how well do they work compared to raking or SPP'ing the lock? Now obviously SPP is much more methodical and reliable if done with skill, but what I mean to ask is are the Southord pin tumbler jigglers effective at opening locks? (In the profiles that they can fit...)

EDIT: It appears I didn't read the post above. Thanks, fgarci03.
