That baseball stick lock is not as good because easier to remove by cutting the steering, and you can also still steer a bit even with it attached. Pedal locks on the other hand is harder to remove because you cannot cut the pedal as the steel is much harder and thicker than steering. I also don't like the fixed pedal locks because seems obstrusive.

The steering lock is for other safety reason... Haha

Using locktech and steering lock.

For locktech, when they install I told them not to connect the wires.

Better not to plug-in the wire harness of the steering lock into the car.
Last time my friend's car wouldn't start due to the faulty wire harness.
Had to ask the installer to come to his car.

Many installers also recommend not to plug the pedal lock wire harness to the car ignition.

Well as long as one cannot step on the brake, then he cannot start the car. So it serves the purpose already.

Once you lock the pedal lock, then you can't start the car.
