Witi Anti Theft System REVIEW | Complete Security Solution For Your Caravan!

[@leopardsgowild]

I love having an alarm on our Caravan, means leaving it in a freedom campsite for the morning or the day while you go out to do something, it's gonna be almost impossible to steal.

[@AdventuresWithRosy]

Yeh good point, it’s pretty handy for the freedom camping spots! How long are you guys at Fielddays for?

[@leopardsgowild]

@@AdventuresWithRosy I'll be here till Saturday with the IORV crew

[@KiwiWanderers]

Nice bit of kit we should get 1...oh wait.... Great vid Bronson, it sounds like your old brake controller came out with the arc so this will be a huge improvement.

[@AdventuresWithRosy]

Oh my gosh I just saw your video you posted a couple of days ago! What are the chances we post the same thing the same week haha 😆

[@KiwiWanderers]

@@AdventuresWithRosy yea maybe we should schedule them, probably better for WITI as well

[@Wolfsbane115]

Already have the alarm set up, I really like the idea of the down hill brake bias, was towing around the Coromandel and found the redarc unit a bit jerky, good video

[@AdventuresWithRosy]

Oh interesting! I’ve not used the Redarc but some of the other ones I’ve used in the past have been quite jerky, normally around town when you are on and off the brakes lots… thanks for watching!

[@katz5434]

Awesome security unit good review!

[@AdventuresWithRosy]

Thanks Katz! Appreciate you watching 👌

[@1Polglen]

Thanks I've been thinking about security for my wee van. The door locks would work. Trouble with a van too many doors. My companion cat would set that motion sensor off. Will look into it. Been a bit hard finding info out, so thanks.

[@AdventuresWithRosy]

You are welcome Glen. I think you are probably right about the cat, I’ve not tested how sensitive it is but I didn’t have to move much to set the alarm off

[@tleej26]

Amazing technology!

[@AdventuresWithRosy]

Not bad aye! Except I keep forgetting to de-arm it before I open the door haha

[@nickpedavoli1072]

Hey guys, is the unit connected to the battery management system? Also, please confirm, at night when sleeping in the van do you turn the main unit on? Does it pick up the movement when turn over in bed or walking inside etc, when armed? Cheers

[@AdventuresWithRosy]

Hi, yup it’s wired into the battery system, we don’t arm it at night when we sleep but you probably could with out any issues. You would need to turn the motion sensor off though as that would set the alarm off if you got up to go to the toilet haha. There is a switch on the side of the motion sensor so you can turn it off easily enough

[@davekerr8133]

Mmm. Have been wondering about a good security system. Thanks 😀

[@AdventuresWithRosy]

You’re welcome Dave 👍 cheers for watching.

[@RadRoadAdventures]

If you armed the system but turned the PIR sensor off because you were inside, could jumping around inside the caravan set the main unit off?

[@AdventuresWithRosy]

Good question, I shall test haha! We were rocking it around and seeing the sensor off when we were first testing is. Wind is fine but if you really shake it it goes off 😁

[@johnklopper1733]

Have purchased a unit for our new Jayco. Any idea on how long the install took and what it cost?

[@AdventuresWithRosy]

Oh nice! Not sure how long it too to be honest, we dropped the van off in the morning and picked it up at the end of the day 😊 I would say maybe 3-4 hours, looks like there is a bit of wiring to it!

[@Romeo-kp8tc]

Great review, my only concern is the down hill braking, how long does the brake stay on , drum brakes can overheat if applied too long, my thinking is better to use gearing , and short jabs of brakes. Technology has come a long way for caravans. Cheers Bevan 🤠❤️🦘🦘🇦🇺

[@AdventuresWithRosy]

Good point! It is only on when you are braking. I should get one of those heat gun things and see 😊 yeh tech has come pretty far aye! We can control our whole caravan from an app haha

[@garth2876]

Much less and better controlled brake application than the traditional override brakes, so as long as you drive appropriately and minimise using the vehicle brakes it should be fine.

[@johnmathisen1167]

Just a question for you mate is it available for use in Australia

[@AdventuresWithRosy]

Sure is! I think it actually originates from Australia 👍

[@studyboynz]

would be very handy

[@AdventuresWithRosy]

Not a bad piece of kit huh!

[@LittleCamperNZ]

Any idea if cost?

[@AdventuresWithRosy]

Would have been helpful if I put that in the video!! I knew I forgot something 😑 the security kit is about $780 from memory 👍

[@brianseager6388]

dont let harvey see where you put the gps unit so he cant tell us where it is

[@AdventuresWithRosy]

Oh my gosh I know right! I will wait until he goes to bed before I install it 😂

[@petereicens5089]

God, you go on a bit, get to the nuts and bolts of it, my advise to you is get a script
