Must read!
Hello fellow money savers,
This product is great and would highly recommend it. There is one thing that I want to point out though. The manual said that you would need to "connect the YELLOW wire to the +ACCESSORY wire of your vehicle" This is not right (after contacting tech support). The YELLOW wire should be connected to the +IGNITION WIRE of the vehicle. Failure to do this will make the alarm arm itself while you are driving. It can also trigger the alarm while you are driving and you open the door to let somebody out. Also, you wont be able to change any of the programmable feature, you wont be able to program of any remote control, and you wont be able to stop the alarm from sounding when you activate it.
For the price and quality of it + 14 programmable features, nothing can beat that.

Great feature-packed alarm for the price!
I was surprised at all the features this alarm has for the price. It turned out to be a great alarm. Basically pretty simple to install but the siren wire could have been longer. Biggest drawback was that there is only one accessory sensor input, but I did find that Omega makes a 3-into-1 adapter (called the #AU-EXP "ExpandaSens") that you can plug 3 added sensors into, the plug the other end (1 plug) into your alarm's main unit. This alarm's siren is truly soft-chirp but loud when activated. Nice remotes but a bit bulky. Biggest drawback about this alarm is the cheesy owner's manual and lack of technical into and troubleshooting sections. But for the price, I doubt you'll find another alarm with this many features and options.

Okay Alarm
I thought I was getting a better alarm than what I got. I guess for the price I paid it's not that bad. The alarm is not that loud. The remote does not always work so you have to hit it to get it to it to work. I was really getting it for the keyless entry feature which is fine most of the time. Sonic Electronic was an awesome seller! I will deal with them again.

Great Alarm System
I used to install Excalibur alarms professionally, and would not use any other brand. Great quality, durability, and value.
