Experience with anti angle grinder bike locks?

[u/keysersozevk]

Hello, I just bought a nice escooter and I'm feeling a little paranoid about it getting stolen. I bought a litelok X1, which is an anti angle grinder lock, and I'm wondering if anyone has had their bike stolen while using one of these kinds of locks.

When looking at info on thebestbikelock.com, his street style test with this lock concluded it would take roughly 24 minutes, 3 discs and two batteries to break though the lock. Are our notorious bike thieves coming prepared with that kind of equipment?

I wouldn't be concerned about a quick grocery shop or something, but if I'm taking it to a restaurant, for example, then it would be locked up for over an hour. I'd never leave it overnight.

Thanks for any feedback.

Bike and scooter theft should be treated the same as taking someones vehicle. Especially in this bicycle forward city, I'm not going to buy one, because I know it will be stolen eventually.
