This is more than just keys to me.

Its 16 tools and a air tag. All Ti tools.
Titanium is harder than steel, tough to scratch, lighter, and doesn't jingle like metal. Forms a patina...
Features 5 modular tools everything can be rearranged or taken off per the need or lack of.

11 Ice blue tritium vials that can be taken off and set up like beacons around a camp to avoid hazards.
3 Hidden Keys and a Rovyvon Aurora a4 Pro Ti flashlight with Tritium inserts.
You ask why did I do all of this? I have a TBI and am forgetful these tools come in handy all the time for me.

If you were disabled

Would this be helpful for you if you had some disabilities?
Pending it not be the size it looks it is in the pics of which it is not.
The Middle bangle holding all the items is the size of a quarter for size reference.
I am a disabled TBI survivor and speak at conferences for other TBI survivors and give ideas on ways to navigate the world of needing assistance from the state and gov but being stuck in a legal battle with ssdi/ssi and how to survive that. The keychain is my ice breaker after I’ve dropped the “when I was 9 months old I learned to walk and climb quicker than my parents could prepare.” I crawled off our 12 ft balcony falling face first onto jagged rocks fracturing my skull and knocking me out. Fracture actually saved me. Keychain might have had I had it and it had a grapple hook.

Ti Trit Relic chain

The only component that isn't Titanium is the GPCA Pro X Key carabiner.
11 Tritium vials... Could Set up a whole Campground with beacon markers...
Got a few more sitting around for version 3 of the keychain.
The keychain looks huge but is about half the size it looks in the pictures.

This is modular with 4 locking magnetic quick releases by tikey.
Usually only carry about half the keychain around with me due to not needing a flashlight & usually nail clipper during the day. As well as a 2nd pry bar and removeable knife.

The Rovyvon Aurora A4 Pro Ti flashlight does get a lot of use. Cost about 115$ /w vials.
The chain itself is quite hard to miss in the dark and that's why I hooked up all the tritium.
Will Need more tritium in the upcoming future for the next one.

For a relevant size point, the inner circular band of titanium that holds the items is the size of a quarter.
In other words, it's not that much of a pain to carry the full thing around it just gets looped into a pocket from the belt loop and looks considerably more impressive in person in low light.
Always gets a visceral reaction. I speak at conferences as a TBI Survivor for other survivors and this is my ice breaker... Goes from a joke to a real system, that helps me remember stuff all the time, really fast.
16 tools all together including, Ti Scissors, nail clipper & toothpick with pen. Pill bottle. 4 diff size wrench. 2 pry bars... 2 diff knife options & 1 sharpened object inside the pill bottle.
Most importantly it has an air tag, so I know when it's a more than a few feet away from me.
The Price tag for everything was at least twice to 3 times as much as you'd guess.... worth it though as now it is a family heirloom.
9 months since I completed the build and all that's formed on it is the beginning of the patina. Ti is hard so very limited scratching and Ti is dull sounding when clanked together so its not jingly..

One disabled mans keychain evolution.. Saved me 3 days in a row once...

I went with a Neo dymium magnetic connector with this and lost half of it down my apartment trash shoot... Had to reconsider my approach.

Mostly Titanium. Only the GPCA Pro X Key is ss...
Trial and error from beyond ridiculous version 1 to version 2...
3 comes out next and I will probably try to start getting them to people I know.
I am disabled and this is massively helpful for me and would be for anyone...
The disabled community could use many many more innovations for common problems like forgetting some of the most used tools.
This has 16 and they are Ti. Ti doesnt jingle like steel, it has a flat sound.
Hasnt scratched in 8 months since I finished it..
Instead it is forming a patina.
Is modular.
Always viewable in the dark and findable and vigilant with its proximity to me per the air tag...
Best item would be the
Rovyvon Aurora A4 Pro Flashlight /w ice blue tritium inserted and black light glued.
- TEC Isotope Diode with 3 trit inserts was about 115$...
I usually remove about half of it per whatever I am doing.
Put it on the belt loop, it hangs in the pocket.. barely visible.
This cost me about 2-3 times as much as you'd guess...
saves me all the time-priceless.
I realize for most people this is a lot of keychain... it took a commitment I wont lie 😆. Still walking like Peewee Herman3000 with this thing kind of rocks..
Fr though his bike was a similar concept... but had a turbo button hmm 🤔

Version 2 aka Custos Chain.
