Q: How big a volume will this unit fill?
A: It is designed for cars. For
vans, we often recommend two units at each end. If you need a
unit that will fill a larger area, our portable
smoke security unit is the perfect solution.
Q: Can you supply aerosols that kill the
thief by gassing them?
A: No. It would be unsafe for the
fitter of the unit and would open up a whole range of legal issues.
Our unit sets out to prevent theft.
Q: Can the unit be triggered by the driver
if they are at a set of traffic lights and a thief forces them
out of the car and drives off?
A: No. It would not be safe for
any nearby pedestrians if the car was driven at speed whilst full
of smoke. The unit has a safety feature which prevents it from
being activated whilst the vehicle is moving. If the unit is located
to secure cargo on a lorry for example, you can yourself fit a
panic button to trigger the smoke screen manually.
Q: I live in the USA. Why does it cost £115 to send the
unit and canisters to me?
A: The kit is supplied with one
canister. The aerosol canisters containing the smoke fluid are
pressurised and although they are harmless, are classified as
'hazardous' material by couriers and shipping agents. This 'hazardous'
label gives the package a price premium. The cost of shipping
is the same whether you buy one kit or a number of kits and extra
canisters.

Q: I want to trigger the unit remotely by
mobile phone in event of a hijack. It would be done whilst vehicle
is moving to force driver to stop. Can you device be made to work
this way?
A: We offer an anti-hijack system that will prevent
the car being stolen. If you already have such a system in your
car, we offer an interface which will work in conjunction with
it which to links to the smoke screen.
It works like this: you get into your car and turn the Ignition
on - press the hidden button - the hijack system is now deactivated.
If you get in and haven't pressed the button, it will beep to
remind you to press it. If someone steals the car and doesn't
press the hidden button, the engine cuts out gradually over 30
seconds, and the horn and lights flash as the engine starts degrading
to attract maximum attention to ailing vehicle. Once the car has
stopped, the smoke system kicks in. This system must be fitted
by a professional installer.
