DroneMobile Is the Best Car Sharing GPS Tracking Solution

07/13/2021 By BestCarAudio.com

Car Sharing GPS

Just as Uber and Lyft have changed the way we move around when we don’t have access to a vehicle, car sharing is changing how we rent vehicles. If you’re sharing your vehicle through Turo, Getaround, HyreCar or Outdoorsy and you’re looking for the best GPS tracking and control solutions, DroneMobile is an excellent choice. Being able to check your vehicle’s location at any time gives you peace of mind, and best of all, the system is reliable, accurate and easy to use. Let’s take a close look at the features and information that make DroneMobile the top choice for people who own car-sharing vehicles.

Precision Vehicle Location Information

DroneMobile can be added to your vehicle as a stand-alone tracking solution or an accessory to a security or remote car starter system. This telematics solution provides state-of-the-art LTE-based communication with a vehicle using the DroneMobile app on your Android or Apple smartphone or tablet, or via the web interface on a laptop or personal computer. One key element is that the hardware is completely invisible and can’t be easily disabled by the end user.

Car Sharing GPS
As soon as you launch the DroneMobile app, the system displays the location of your car or truck.

Locating and tracking your vehicle in case of an emergency is as easy as launching the app on your device or logging in to the website. In a second or two, you’ll know the exact location of your car or truck. You’ll be provided with the address where the vehicle is, and you can check its speed if it’s in motion. You can even use your Apple Watch or a WearOS device to check the vehicle location.

Instant Alerts Add Peace of Mind

The DroneMobile system does much more than report a vehicle’s location. You can configure alerts for vehicle speed, operating hours and excessive idling. If you want, you can receive a notification any time the ignition is turned on or off. DroneMobile monitors battery voltage and can send you a warning message if its low, so the person renting your vehicle will never be stranded. If you add DroneMobile to a security system, you’ll know when the alarm is triggered and what caused the alert.

The system pushes instant notifications directly to your smartphone. LTE communication (with 3G fallback) between the vehicle and blazing-fast servers means you get these alerts usually within two seconds, if not faster!

Alerts are pushed directly to your smartphone, so you’ll always know what’s happening with your vehicle.

Detailed Information Makes Managing Your Rental Easy

If you choose the DroneMobile Premium Plus or Ultimate service package, you can see turn-by-turn details of where the vehicle has been driven. The data includes the total distance traveled and timestamps for stop and start locations and each turn made during the trip. If your car-sharing service uses per-mile billing, this information is perfect for invoicing.

Car Sharing GPS
Details about each drive are available by logging into the DroneMobile website or using the Activity tab in the smartphone app.

Monitor Your Car-Sharing Vehicle with DroneMobile GPS

Renting out your vehicle can be stressful. DroneMobile helps to alleviate this stress by letting you monitor the vehicle usage, its security and location. More than 2,000 dealers across the United States and Canada are available to install DroneMobile in your vehicle. You can find one near you using the Dealer Locator on the DroneMobile website. Learn more about DroneMobile products by following them on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or their YouTube channel.

Product Spotlight: Compustar CSX7905-A Premium Car Alarm System

06/15/2021 By BestCarAudio.com

Compustar CSX7905-A

Protecting your car or truck from theft or vandalism requires constant monitoring. While sleeping in your vehicle all night might be one solution, it isn’t really an option. The Compustar CSX7905-A vehicle security system includes a long-range two-way RF remote control and the Drone X1-LTE with the DroneMobile App so that you know what’s going on – whether you’re six blocks or 60 miles away. Let’s delve into the features of Compustar’s flagship car alarm system and why it’s the best way to protect your investment.

Communication Enables Easy Monitoring

With the CSX7905-A, you have two ways of knowing if someone is tampering with your vehicle. The system includes a two-way T9 LCD remote control that offers up to 3,000 feet of range. The remote features an LCD screen that provides details on the security system status. Should the alarm go off, the remote will beep, and an icon will show you what zone triggered the alert.

Compustar CSX7905-A
The two-way T9 remote includes an LCD screen that will let you know when the security system has received and executed commands from the remote.

Even if your apartment is 15 floors up, or you work in a large factory or a building like a hospital, then the included Drone X1-LTE Smartphone Telematics module is the perfect solution. The Drone hardware uses the cell phone data network to relay information to the DroneMobile app on your phone and commands from the app back to your vehicle. If the shock sensor is triggered, a door opens or even something as simple as the ignition turns on, you get a notification on your Apple iOS or Android-based smartphone in a second or two. Based on those alerts, you can decide to check on your vehicle or alert the authorities.

The Drone X1-LTE module includes a high-sensitivity GPS receiver that adds a second level of protection. If someone were to drag your car or truck onto a flatbed, you’d get a tow alert on the DroneMobile app that lets you know your vehicle was moved without authorization. You can track its location and notify the police. In many cases, vehicles stolen this way are returned in a few hours instead of being shipped out of the country, never to be seen again. Your Compustar retailer can help you choose a DroneMobile subscription service that offers the communication and security features to suit your needs.

Compustar CSX7905-A
The DroneMobile system will relay alerts from your CSX7905-A and the optional DAS-II to your smartphone so you can monitor your vehicle from anywhere that you have internet access.

On-Board Security Features

The CM2400 security module at the heart of the CSX7905-A monitors door, hood and truck pins and includes a two-stage analog shock sensor. Compustar includes their E-Lock starter disable relay that prevents hot-wiring of your ignition system. Of course, Compustar includes a dash-mountable warning LED to let would-be thieves know they are up for a challenge. The included 105+ dB siren draws attention to the vehicle should a persistent thief decide he or she wants in.

Compustar CSX7905-A
The CSX7905-A includes one of Compustar’s 105+ dB sirens that will help warn thieves that a high-quality security system protects your vehicle.

The flexibility of the CM2400 allows your installer to add upgraded security features for advanced protection. Perhaps the most popular upgrade is the DAS-II sensor. This four-zone security module includes a two-stage digital shock sensor, a motion and tilt sensor and a microphone calibrated to monitor glass breakage. The optional FT-KP2 keypad works like the number pad many vehicle manufacturers include by the door handle on some vehicles. By entering a user-selected code, you can disarm the security system and unlock the vehicle. The FT-KP2 keypad mounts on the inside of the windshield. Touch the glass on the outside to enter the code and arm or disarm the system.

The optional DAS-II sensor adds digital shock, motion and tilt detection along with glass-breakage monitoring to help protect your vehicle.

Another upgrade option is the Drone X1-MAX. The X1-MAX hardware includes a built-in backup battery. If a thief cuts a battery cable in hopes of disabling your security system, the X1-MAX will continue to send you alerts and allow you to monitor the vehicle location. The X1-MAX also includes a shock, tilt and glass-breakage sensor.

Of course, all Drone solutions let you monitor the temperature inside the vehicle and its battery voltage. You can lock and unlock the doors and pop the trunk or tailgate if your vehicle has an electronic release option.

DroneMobile will let you check the temperature inside your vehicle and ensure that the doors are closed and locked.

Product Spotlight: AMP Research PowerStep Motorized Running Boards

05/20/2021 By John Schwartz

AMP Research PowerStepIf you have a tall truck, SUV or van and are shopping for a side step or running board, drop by Perfectionist Auto Sound and Security in Anchorage and ask about the AMP Research PowerSteps. These motorized steps offer the convenience and safety benefits of a running board for getting in and out of your vehicle, then fold up tight against the rocker panel as you drive.

Truck Step Convenience and Style

AMP Research PowerStepPowerStep running boards mount directly to the chassis of your vehicle to provide a solid platform. The steps are constructed from a durable 6063 marine-grade aluminum extrusion that’s powder-coated with a corrosion- and wear-resistant PTFE finish. The motor and idler linkage assemblies are cast from an aluminum alloy and include precision-machined stainless steel pivot pins for excellent longevity and stability. AMP Research includes LED illumination on all models of PowerSteps to help you see around the product in the dark.

How Do AMP Research PowerStep Truck Steps Work?

When you drive, the step platform is tucked up tight against the rocker panel of your pickup truck, van or SUV. This retracted location offers good ground clearance and minimal aerodynamic drag compared to a fixed step or board. As soon as you open a door, the steps motorize down into place without the need for you to press any buttons. Once the last door is closed, the steps retract automatically after 3 seconds. Again, you don’t have to press any buttons — it’s all automatic.

PowerStep Options for Every Application

AMP Research PowerStepAMP Research offers the PowerSteps in three models to suit your vehicle and needs. The classic PowerStep features a single high-torque motor and extends 6 to 7 inches below the pinch weld on the bottom of the cab. This height is more than twice the distance offered by most other fixed steps and boards. The PowerStep XL is an extended design that’s optimized for extreme duty and lifted truck applications. The XL series adds an additional 3 inches to the extension length. For those who need the most-durable step available, the PowerStep Extreme is the right choice. These steps include dual motors to help you power through mud, ice and snow that may build up on the system while you’re driving. Best of all, all models are backed by a comprehensive, hassle-free, five-year, 60,000-mile warranty to the original owner.

Upgrade Your Safety and Convenience at Perfectionist

Whether you’re looking for a way to climb into a pickup truck with a 4-inch lift kit and tall tires or want to help the kids get in and out of the family SUV with increased safety, a set of AMP Research PowerSteps from Perfectionist Auto Sound and Security in Anchorage would be a perfect choice. Drop by our store today to find out what’s available for your vehicle.

Product Spotlight: Compustar CS852-A Car Alarm System

05/11/2021 By BestCarAudio.com

Compustar CS852-A

A car alarm system like the Compustar CS852-A helps protect the contents of your car or truck and dramatically reduces the chances of vehicle theft. As a step-up solution from the CS697-A, this alarm system offers increased remote-control range and a high-output siren to ward off would-be criminals.

Reliable Vehicle Theft Protection

At the heart of the CS852-A is the Compustar CM2400 Security Control Module. This powerful yet compact microcomputer can monitor the doors, hood and trunk of your car or truck to alert you if someone has tampered with your vehicle. An integrated dual-stage shock sensor monitors the body of the vehicle for impacts. A mild impact will trigger a warning blast from the included high-output 105+dB siren. An impact from car door or an inattentive driver that will cause damage to the vehicle triggers the full siren. The system can also flash the parking lights and sound the horn to attract even more attention and scare off criminals.

The 105+dB siren included with the CS852-A helps scare away thieves to protect your car or truck.

Thanks to the included E-LOCK starter kill relay, hot-wiring your car by conventional means is nearly impossible. Even if you have unlocked the doors with the key, so long as the alarm is armed, thieves won’t be able to start the engine.

The included E-LOCK relay helps prevent your vehicle from being stolen when the alarm is armed.

Long-Range Communication

The CS852-A security system includes a pair of PRO-Series G15 one-way long-range remote controls. These easy-to-use key fobs transmit lock, unlock, trunk release and auxiliary output commands from distances as far as 3,000 feet away from your car or truck. If you live in an apartment building or work in an office tower, this extra signal transmission power helps maintain communication with the vehicle through walls and other obstacles.

The CS852-A includes keyless entry functionality to upgrade almost any vehicle with power door locks. You can even opt for power trunk release and power sliding door or power tailgate operation as an option.

The PRO-Series remotes are backed by a three-year warranty, and the control module in the vehicle carries a lifetime warranty, so you can be confident with your purchase.

The PRO-Series one-way four-button remotes included with the CS852-A offer up to 3,000 feet of range for reliable communication.

Upgrade Your Car Alarm for Added Protection

If you want to receive warnings or alerts from your car alarm, consider upgrading it with the Drone telematics system. DroneMobile combines a cellular communication module that talks to your Compustar car alarm and relays information to the DroneMobile app on your Android or iOS smartphone. You have all the same control features right at your fingertips, and you’ll know instantly if someone is tampering with your vehicle. You can also check the battery voltage and the temperature inside the vehicle. When combined with the Premium service plan, GPS locating functionality and location-based alerts are added for an additional level of confidence.

Compustar CS852-A
Adding the Drone system to your car alarm gives you real-time two-way communication with your vehicle from anywhere that you have access to the Internet.

Another popular upgrade is the DAS-II security sensor. This four-in-one module includes a shock sensor, a digital tilt sensor, vehicle motion monitoring and a glass breakage sensor. If you are worried about someone stealing your wheels or a catalytic converter or smashing a window, adding the DAS-II is wise.

Protect Your Vehicle with Compustar Security Systems

You can find a shop near you by using the Dealer Locator on their website.
