2 Way (Paging) Alarm/immob That Meets Adr, Which Products?

[nicr4wks]

Hey Guys,

As the title suggests, I'm searching options for a paging car alarm & immobiliser that meets ADR/insurance specifications (black wire/3 point immob)

There are a couple around that involve carrying a second pager unit (Mongoose for example) however I would like it all on the one fob (Viper style).

Having trouble finding products that fit this category, but maybe that's the point

If anyone knows some that that fits please list away.

Cheers.

You won't find a "Viper Style" 2 way paging alarm system that meets ADR specs. Typically, the Mongoose and equivalent systems utilise a GSM Pager as a separate module, which can be done on the same day as the alarm or at a later stage if you choose. The alarm/immobiliser system itself is what makes it compliant to ADR and insurance companies not the Pager unit. A GSM Pager or GPS Tracker will communicate with your mobile phone and so really you only to use the "one fob" anyway and will work pretty much all over Australia and won't limit you to a 1 or 2 km radius like the Viper style pagers do.

Also its much easier to remove the pager or tracker from your car to fit into your next car when you eventually decide to change cars. Leaving the alarm in your car is a good thing when you sell it because it will be needed anyway by the next person who buys your car.

Cheers!

Thanks Daniel,

Mongoose have gsm and fm pagers, the fm module has a separate pager where as the gsm obviously requires ongoing costs, not to mention you need your phone on you, my phone is on silent when sleeping and at work as I'm sure plenty of others do to which makes it a useless notification for a good portion of the day.

Code Alarm seem to have some suitable models however I am not yet certain if their higher-end paging ones are adr...

No Worries Nick,

As I mentioned however I have nor seen a 2 way paging alarm that is also on the ADR approval list. GSM based expenses are very low if you use the same network as your mobile phone utilise the free sms feature. Also many people do carry their phones with them and many people don't carry keys in their pockets at all times either, so it really depends on the individual.

You could simply put an approved immobiliser that meets the criteria such as a proximity immobiliser which is relatively inexpensive and then you can put any kind of 2 way paging alarm to act as the alarm and RF Pager component.

Cheers,
