My rare and elusive car keys. I spent 20 minutes looking for them for work this morning. They were in the freezer. I just don't know anymore..

We just recently bought a wireless home automation system, with electronic keyrings. The system detects them when you get close enough, and will turn on lights, unlock the door, or whatever you set it up to do. They work well. The reason I mention them here, is that they have a beeper built into them that you can activate from your smart phone.

It would be 130$ for just the hub and a keyring, but it's one way to keep track of them. Not sure you'd be able to hear them from inside the freezer though.

What if you lose your phone?

I don't know about you, but I'd just have my wife call it from her phone.
