Directed Electronics Python 660XP car alarm

Date Published: 1/9/08

Directed Electronics has put a lot of design and planning into the Python 660XP. Perhaps their most confident move is to include a guarantee that will refund your insurance deductible up to $2,500 if your car is stolen with this alarm installed and armed--this is in addition to a lifetime warranty. You know they must be confident this alarm will protect your car.

The features are convincing. The 660XP uses a clone-safe code-hopping system and owner recognition for the transmitters, and it can be programmed for up to four drivers. The tiny remotes use XHF for extended range. It can be programmed on a PC, for ultimate comfort and control.

The alarm comes with a six-tone siren and a main unit that compactly tucks out of sight. The 660XP can be configured for keyless entry with an automatic engine disable circuit, and it can even pop the trunk. One feature your neighbors might appreciate is the nuisance prevention circuits.

With the impressive warranty and guarantee, you've got nothing to lose by trying the Python 660XP.



Warranty
lifetime; insurance deductible refund of up to $2,500 if vehicle is stolen
