The auto contact

I understand your thinking on this. However, some folks are good at what they acually do (say for example, installing and selecting alarm equipment) but totally inept at writing HTML code. I always prided myself on offering good products but it took me a long time to learn how to build an online store that's easy to shop and (I think) user friendly.

I don't doubt that. I have nephiews who can code circles around me. However, they don't know squat about alarms and home automation. One converse example is my old nemisis, Mike. He actually knew his stuff about alarms and could put together a decent system. He couldn't "sell" though because he came across as an oaf in person and he had the Web design skills of an ape. His prices were competitive on most stuff though he subscribed to the "@#$*% you" school of customer service. :^)

People who rely on their "education level" as proof of the rightness of their position in online debates usually turn out to be inerudite morons.

That is true.

You're paying too much. They give high-volume clients better prices. Perhaps Monitronix doesn't order much. :^)

Yeah, sure. ADI displays only one price when you log on -- your price. They don't also display a "normal" price. Nice try though.

I didn't use the ADI site either, you are a funny person to talk about pricing

Uh-huh. Sure.

I only said you're paying too much. Then you started dancing the twist.

Whatever.

I don't really need to use the website since the nearest ADI is less than a block away (that shouldn't be too hard for even you to verify using Google)

And I won't bring up Monitronics (sorry Monitronix) pricing in this newsgroup although I'm pretty sure it's lower than yours

Order them from the ADI's in Florida. The product is at the $100 mark.

Odd that Florida would be lower, it looks like a nice product although when it triggers the car is gone. The DeWalt Mobilock might be a better product, I had one for quite a while and was very impressed

The developer has been sending me more information since this thread started and this morning sent me more pictures, it's a large rubbery pad with space for a wireless sensor, can also be hardwired.

Looks like an interesting product

True enough, however, I am looking at it for other applications. Tracking vehicles as to the times of vehicles coming and going (teenagers). That classic car that is used when you're not around (notification). Patrol cars that never move from their parking area when tours are supposed to be done or not back on time. Or even a tour check point (recorded time) etc. etc. Can this be circumvented? Of course. Point is, using one's imagination, there are other uses besides theft. I look at it as a quality option to offer as a solution for a particular need.

Have you used TheAutoContact ? If so how did it hold up? I checked with the BBB and TheAutoContact is not rated a F. Why would you say all of the bads things about a product?

He's not talking about the AutoContact.

The AutoContact manufacturer is not rated poorly by the BBB as far as I know.

He's in a personal feud with a group participant and it has nothing to do with the product in thread.

I've looked at it, for what it does it's an excellent product

Ever tried the recessed sensors?

He's not in a feud. That would require more than one person to participate.
