Gemini ADR

Posted on June 16, 2017 by admin

Gemini have released an ADR alarm very simular to the Cobra 4600 series. The ADR card which sits on your vehicles key is a little more secure in the way it shuts down after 5 mins of no movement, this means there is no way the signal could be amplified or changed in order to trick the alarm to disarm. The Gemini is very universal due to it having an onboard full can-bus index meaning it can be programmed to many different vehicles made after 2005.

The alarm will arm and disarm from the original remote control meaning you lock the vehicle and the alarm will fully arm and unlocking will make the arm go into a pre-disarm state until the secure ADR card is in range. The alarm also features 1 touch key which allows the user of the vehicle to disarm the system in the event of the ADR card battery going flat.

The siren is very effective sounding at 118DB when triggered. The system also flashes indercators on alarm sounding for a visual warning.

Thatcham Security Going 2018

Posted on June 15, 2017 by admin

Thatcham are leaving the scene with regards to vehicle alarms and immobilisers in 2018. It has been kept quiet for the last year or so but the word on the street is Thatcham will be leaving the vehicle security side. The only thing that will remain is the stolen vehicle tracking approvals. There may ( Might ) be no factory alarm or immobilisers fitted in the UK once Thatcham has stopped accrediting the security products. In the USA very few cars have a factory immobiliser fitted as standard meaning car manufatures might not invest in any forms of security at all.

This is more than likely the reason Autowatch haven’t put the Ghost through any form of testing. Until the time comes next year it will be unknown if there will be a replacement for the Thatcham accredited products. There might be another body which will step in but it’s unknown at this current time.

Will this make a diffrence in the products we sell?

The answer is very simple, with car thieves running rings around factory vehicles with Thatcham Cat1 products fitted as standard. Customers are looking for something that will simply secure the vehicle. For example none of the Viper security systems are Thatcham approved in the UK or the Autowatch Ghost for example.

All the infomation is just simply talk within the trade, we can’t be held responsiable for any incorrect infomation.
