    Cool video, Neil.
    If one listens to the statistics and the powers that be, then the best deterrent to thieves is to make entry and success look as cumbersome as possible with visible things like your side door lock (we use a padlock in the rail), a brightly painted steering clamp, a wheel clamp, etc. Thieves will generally take the path to least resistance.
    Alarms, even when heard by the culprits, unfortunately hardly phase them any more. France, Spain, Portugal - they're in and out quicker than you will check your phone.
    Interesting devices but with a somewhat limited effectiveness.
    The rear door brackets of your other video are great! We also use similar brackets on the side door with a small chain.

    Do these actually detect motion like someone walking close to your car? The default device is good enough for detecting vibrations on my car.

    • @UrbanVanlife

      They don’t detect motion but vibration

    For at home use if you have a wireless home alarm there is the “Pyronix Car Defender” I’ve seen it working with the pyronix wireless alarm & the texecom elite which can have both wired & wireless sensors attached depending on the model. With this if the vehicle is tampered with it sets your house alarm off so waking up the neighbourhood.

    Dear, we have a camper ourselves and we close the doors from the inside with the seat belts, you put the metal flap through the handles and then simply place it in the slot. Costs nothing and always works well and has the advantage that you can drive away immediately if something happens, greetings DDS

    • @UrbanVanlife
      @UrbanVanlife  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Yerrrr if seen lots of people do that . Also to have zero effect when people break in there van . They either open the door slowley to let the belt out or just unclip it . It’s one of them if it makes you feel safer things but never known it to work

    Good information 👍
    We have the Vanguardian system fitted, it also works by detecting any vibration, tampering etc which sets off multiple sirens as an audible deterrent.
    Will add the Carlock units aswell, as its good to get the notification of any potential criminal activity.

    There some similar that I had on.my van mainly used for a patio door. And went off when the door was knocked. But they went off emeditly and very loud. Ideal over night.. also had some PIR lights on the sides of the van

    If I didn’t have the tracker I would have purchased the sensors.

    What if you are somewhere remote with no mobile coverage?

    • @UrbanVanlife
      @UrbanVanlife  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Then it won’t go off . You will have to be in service for that to happen . But same thing could be said of what if you see some one steeling your van and has no service you can’t ring the police . Vans seldomly get broken in to or stolen in remote areas as a general rule of thumb is there needs to be people there to do bad things .

    Loved the video so I purchased the CarLock, 2 sensors. The tag. Then registered and subscribed to the CarLock service with the Asia - Australia option. It would not work and later learned it does not work in Australia. CarLock are trying some tech options to see if it may work with an advent in their system. In a nutshell, the system does not work in Australia at this point in time. Love your videos

      The distance they give is the distance from the sensor to the CarLock box. You can be any distance from your van and you'll be notified of an activation. As Neil said in the video, once a vibration is detected the CarLock system notifies you via the app on your phone.

    Am I missing something? It looks to be a nifty product that works, but doesn’t it just tell your van has been stolen/broken into. Then what do you do? Seems a bit horse has bolted. I’ve always thought visible deterrents are more effective and better use of money.

    • @UrbanVanlife
      @UrbanVanlife  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Visible deterrents are great but not always on the outside of the van these sensors detect vibrations, so if someone banging the door, breaking a window etc, as if you have an alert before they get in the van it could make a major difference as to whether they manage to actually take it, in our view you can’t have too much security. But we have multiple security measures in and on the van, not just one thing.
