Van alarms are a huge talking point at the moment so i thought i would give this "Vanolarm" system a try as it seems to be doing the rounds. I give this van alarm a real world review of what you get, how to install it and how it works....does it do as it says it can??
Link to the Vanolarm website-

Also i start my detox with Jon.... or at least have the consultation ready for Monday.

HI Mark. The BIGGEST issue is even if you get to your van and are able to confront the thief . Likely there is 2 or more are you going to risk attacking them ,getting in a fight risking your life from a possible stabbing. The only thing i can think of is stabbing the take away cars tyres so they cant get away so easily maybe smash the windscreen and run .. All this as the MRS phones the ROZZERS. rgds Don

The auto watch is a full Cambus insurance approved alarm working of your existing wiring system. You can have the door and pirs wired aswell as wireless, they do the same thing I agree. You can take this one onto another van which is a good idea if you change your van regularly or cant fit because of lease agreements. Autowatches ghost system is a good idea to if you live in an area where vans dissappear alot. Loving watching your videos mate, I do alot of large new builds like the barn you did. Keep the videos coming.

Great video! Thanks for taking the time. I agree with another comment, Mark. If you look at the install video they recommend you should locate the tracker sender unit in the cab so it's not blocked by the metal structure of the cargo area. I would hide it some where under the dashboard or something. Good idea about disguising the unit with a sticker etc 😉. I guess thieves would get wise to the system I might quickly find the unit but for £135 it's not gonna be totally full proof. Well done mate 👏🏻

Enjoyed the video. I have literally just got one of these and have come to te conclusion that the bit that Vanolarm do is the vibration sensors, and that they are trying to make it work with the tracker device which is bought out. The biggest issue I see at the moment is that there is no way to turn the unit on or off, so, while you can turn off vibration the thing is basically permanently on and so sends constant false or pointless messages. On top of which my unit will not physically turn off. It needs an on / off feature on the app.

I bought one of these with all the sensors, The sensors work fine it’s the GPS that is rubbish most of the time it’s off-line I’ve even tried a new Sim card. You could’ve saved a lot of money by buying the sensors from Amazon with out the GPS! Don’t buy from the website Don’t buy the GPS unit it’s a waste of money I’ve since then had a proper alarm fitted to my van but I still use the door sensors as a deterrent

Part of me likes the idea of those alarms, part of me knows that the kids that walk up and down the street pinging door handles are going to love messing about with it and deliberately setting it off. I for one am inclined to go with the 360 camera security option with the security speaker, not sure when it'll be available over here but there's a chance it'll be an option on new vans from next year.

With this if some little scumbag gets deterd by the warning beep going off and it rings my phone so I go out then it’s worth it for that alone….. if everyone thought “why bother as you can buy something off eBay” then no one would have anything on there van. Something is better than nothing, I have one… I know if it goes off I will get an alert to which I can go and check my van…..

The smart gps unit is not armed/disarmed via a fob signal. So if the alarms were disabled by use of an electronic blocker the smart gps unit would still be active and would still activate upon noise and/or vibration. So you would still get a text and or phone call.

Those type of fobs don't work on Vanolarm as they don't just use RF connectivity. If the sirens are blocked, which shouldn't be possible (they don't ping) then the smart unit works on a different system (for this very reason) and has its own vibration tech, geofence and tracking (which can be set to alert your phone also)
