Hi,

Someome recommended this anti-theft device to me (Ravelco) http://www.neverstolen.com/

Does anyone have any experience with them?

I was also thinking Lo-Jack is better?

if someone really wants your car, they will do anything to get it, including towing it.

LoJack has GPS. This doesnt

The funny thing is that it says that this system has more than 100,000 combinations... but yet there have been 3.5 million installations.
Do the math... that's means every 35 people that have the same exact plug combination.
I would think the code hoping technology of some of the new alarm systems would be much safer.

I think my viper has 68 billion different codes. I think.

JL95AccorD

Yeah. I have a viper also. They have anti cloning code hoping, and has billions of combinations. Much safer than this. Plus with other alarms you can add parts to immobalize fuel pumps and all that other stuff. POS IMO.

i believe he heard of it from me... cuz i was thinking of buying one.

however, Accord2005NJ, i agree w/ janiVI. if someone really wants your car... they will prolly get it. i would not rely on any single system to stop a determined thief. i had just seen them, and it seemed like a good idea. the claim that it's never been beaten sounded convincing... but i'd hate to be "that one car" that they figured out. i'm going to stick w/ hidden fuel pump/ignition switches, as well as a secondary E-brake. it's a seaky lil design i thought up, dunno if it'll work, but i am gonna try. good luck w/ your decision.

i'm very skeptical of the alarm since i bet it probably is wired into the ignition harness and probably be bypassed like that.

the ravelco system is wired to most major electrical systems... including the ignition. i believe most newer (quality) alarms are the same way.
