Yes, as mentioned before, you can use this method to trigger the alert. Once the main power gets disconnected for longer than 3 seconds, you will get the alert on your mobile phone. It usually takes around 5 to 8 seconds for you to get the alert from the time the main power is cut off.

Thanks gtr_z, my unit arrived about a week ago, I have just not had a chance to have a 'play' until now... actually got it about 4 or 5 days after paying via online transfer? Pretty quick!

Very impressed so far... comes with an active GPS antenna which even works accurately from inside my house (where other GPS's I've tested - bluetooth PC ones for instance - don't get a reliable signal).

A small caveat, FYI re: SIMs:

You need to disable the PIN code on your SIM, if you have set one whilst it was in a mobile phone, to use with the unit.

Great little device, should work nicely. My backup battery came to me charged and working too - switched it on right out of the box (after connecting antennas of course) :)

It doesn't consume anymore power than the average full alarm system.

does anyone know if this has no GPS signal and you SMS it to ask it where it is, will it give you the last known GPS co-ordinate? i read in the details at the top that it will give you the GSM location but this is kinda useless if your in a big city and your car has been stolen and is in some garage somewhere, it would be good if it gave you the last known location then it would make it alot easier to locate?

also how long does the backup battery last for if power is cut to the unit?

The manufacturer claims the back-up battery will last for 48 hours if the main power to the unit is cut. I have never tested it myself, I can't really say for sure if it's accurate. The unit will alert you after 3 seconds if the main power is cut or if your battery dies anyway. The unit still works (all GPS, GSM & GPRS) even though it's well hidden in my car inside my full-brick lock-up garage.

Hi mate, just wondering if you know if this will work with nokia N82/95/96 maps?

It should if you can enter the GPS coordinates manually on those phones the same way as you do on online maps such as Google Maps/Earth. You may want to check if your phone has this 'manual-entry' function.

    • Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.
    • I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it
    • If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣
    • I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
    • Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
