SmartStart is here!

A few months back, Directed Electronics launched an iPhone app that, when paired with a remote start system, would allow you to start your car from just about anywhere on earth. For the bargain price of just $500, you’d never again have to worry about your car being too hot, too cold, or too not on when you got in. Alas, not everyone has an iPhone – what about the remaining chunk of the world that wants to look like James Bond and/or scare people?

Today, Direct Electronics is letting another big group of people in on the slightly-extraneous fun with the release of SmartStart for BlackBerry.


Depending on what sort of car you’ve got and what features it makes available to the SmartStart system, the free BlackBerry app can fire up the engine, toggle the door locks, enable and disable the security system, pop the trunk, ring the panic alarm. It can’t pick up your dry cleaning or drop your grandmother off at the airport, but we can probably expect that from a (distant) future model.

The module that makes your car friendly with the free iPhone app will set you back $200 bucks, which is on top of the $300-or-so security system that you plug it into. That said, if you’ve already got a compatible remote start system, you’ll only need the module and the free app.

Winter Tips - Keep your car battery healthy

March 11, 2011 12:04:00 PM CST

Did you know that your car battery has a life span of about 3 to 4 years?
This is one of the most common issues that motorists experience and it is easily preventible.  Especially now that it is cold outside, you want to make sure that your vehicle will start.
Keep your eyes open for worrying symptoms, if your car experiences a sluggish start when cold, get your battery checked.
When winter comes and the temperature dips below freezing your battery loses 33% of its power.  When the temperature falls below zero, you loose even more battery power, generally up to 50%.  Taking into consideration that during the cold months your vehicle requires even more power to run the heater and the defroster as well as turn over the engine, your battery really goes through quite the workout.  
To avoid any battery issues use the following precautions:
 
Clean your battery and your battery terminals - this can be done by using a battery cleaner.
Get your battery checked before winter comes
 
Bring your car in to Absolute AutoGuard and we will be happy to check your vehicle battery for FREE.
