You have rocked my world. That’s freaking fantastic, both of them. I gotta get one of those. Thank you! Is there one that you prefer to the other?

I was a happy OnlyKey customer until I wanted some spares a couple months ago and they were out of stock. That's when I got a Mooltipass. The OnlyKeys are back in stock this month so I did get some more as backups.

OnlyKey is lower tech which I honestly think makes it more reliable. It also supports a longer pin.

Mooltipass input is the scroll wheel which you push to click. Pin is only 4 digits but supports all hex characters where OnlyKey is only 1-6.

Passwords are stored on device with the OnlyKey. With the Mooltipass its on a card you can swap out, clone, etc.

OnlyKey is powered through USB. Mooltipass has a battery. Battery needs to be cycled often so I use it as my daily driver for that reason. I'd probably use the OnlyKey if it were not for that. I feel it is faster for my workflow since I can pick 1 of 12 passwords in one short or long press on the device. Mooltipass I have to go through a couple menus and confirmations.

I can see the attraction to the additional features of the Mooltipass but I just don't use them (at least yet).

Either are great though. The extra input requirements of the Mooltipass are not that bothersome.

Ordered an Only Key - they’re on sale, which is nice, but I think for my use case it’s easier, as well.

Thanks a ton!

Follow-up: dude, you rock! This thing is amazing. Thanks for the recommendation!

Great to hear! They are awesome for system access before a password manager is available.

Looking to play with the fido2 function soon to unlock luks encrypted partitions for my headless media server after a power outage.
