    May nakasabay ako minsan sa carwash na naka-remote start/off yung oto nya.

    Naisip ko maganda din ito gamitin pag na-carjack ka. Just give them the car without any hesitation, tapos patayin mo nalang yung makina when you feel na safe ka na.

    Just wondering, may naka-ganito ba dito sa tsikot?

    Saan kaya maganda magpa-install? How much aabutin?

    AFAIK, these features can also be found in higher end alarms, i.e. Clifford. Yong remote off, i think that's basically a turbo timer. Yong remote on naman, is useful for cold climate countries na kelangan nila painitin ang engine nila for a while. Di yata sya ganun ka-useful sa atin.

    As to prevent carjacking, since integrated 'to sa alarm at umaandar ang makina mukhang mahirap gawin...unless pwede ka mag-activate ng alarm/remote off function while your engine is running.

    That's the extent of my experience with this. There may be other who can give more enlightening ideas..

    i have an Enforcer remote start/kill installed in the bimmer, medyo di ito pwede pang disable while the car is already running and moving. pang stationary on/off lang talaga.

    i saw a docu /news feature about these sa US; this was about 5-7 years ago pa. basically ganun nga ang mangyayari, then after a complete stop, bi beep ung horn and magfa flash ung lights to attract attention(and hopefully send jackers into a panic).

    dunno lang nga kung available sya sa aftermarket, or sa pricier brands lang meron nito.

    hopefully they design something such that di pwedeng manu manong idisable ng jackers -- ung tipong pag binutingting mo e titirik ung kotse

    AFAIK, this kind of device was banned somewhere... will research on this...

    imagine... a carnapper doing 100kph on a car... then the engine suddenly stops... you'll be endagering innocent motorists / pedestrians - heck even the carnapper... a car IMO isn't worth a single life. involuntary manslaughter perhaps?

    dunno how other remote start/kill devices work but the Enforcer's function is very simple, just to start and kill an engine while idle. the moment may pinasok na key and turned to ON position, it cannot kill the engine.

    may napanood ako sa tv. parang mag susubscribe ka sa kanila, tapos may kasama ng alarm un. gumagamit sila ng gps, tapos isang text lang malalaman na kung nasan ung auto saka pwede din nila patayin ung engine kahit na umaandar. 20k ata ung pakabit tapos may monthly fee pa. hehehe.
