My current key carrying set up isn't working for me, but I haven't figured out what might work better. So I'm asking the forum for some help.

I use a Max Keyper with two keyrings on it. The keyring that rides toward the back has two car remotes and a Freedom Photon. The one that gets taken off more frequently has my various keys on it. The two remotes clacking against each other make a lot of noise, which I find irritating. I sometimes tuck the keyrings into my pocket (Keyper still attached to belt).

I'm thinking that I want to put more items on my keying, maybe a Squirt, my Arc AAA, things of that nature.

The remotes are not neccessary, but they are extremely convienent. I have considered getting a Blackhawk Key Silencer, but that doesn't resolve the issue of the remotes.

I am wondering if I could get by with putting the remotes in a cargo pocket or perhaps my EDC bag. That would make room for more keychain gear and perhaps with the Key Silencer would resolve my noisy key irritations.

Thoughts?

Wrap the remotes in a wide, small diameter rubber band. Hopefully, they won't active the remote and drain the battery. If it does, well, skipp this idea.

Stick the remotes together with velcro. Then you can pull them apart to use if required.
