Never heard of it before this post. Neat looking remote.

Quoted from their site here "ZENESIS remote starter and 2-way pager alarm is the state of the art car security system that has just been released to North America. It has unique features such as the full OLED remote, 6000 ft distance range, Window knocking password system, as well as turbo timers. This entire system is 100% made in Korea for quality control and reliability".

Being "just released to North America" I doubt if anyone will be able to speak for the reliability of the system. If the cost of the unit is the $350 they list on their site, I would recommend staying away from the system until it has been time tested here in the US market. For that kind of money I would pick up a DEI or Compustar unit. Proven reliability from proven manufacturers. DEI is slated to release a new system sometime in the next couple of weeks.

Installer, IT support, and FFL. I need less hobbies.

it looks like a re badged easycar, and the old 502 model at that, not the new 602 model.

Furthermore it states a carrier frequency of 433 Mhz, no way that thing gets 1 mile range, the only starters in the states that get 1 mile range use 900 Mhz Spread Spectrum. SO either they are lying, or the FCC will be a little ticked at you.

Thanks for all your help, I would agree that the system is the same as easycar as both systems use the same web site. How reliable are the easycar alarms and what is there support like?

I have no personal experience with easycar. I haven't found much information about them either.

I have a thread entitled "samito easycar prostar experience?" Someone named Tedmon says it's a good unit. But then another person said the prostar sucks (which is made by the same company).

I think it might be worth trying though. It seems like a good unit. Easycar told me they only have a 3000 foot range.

Looks like it came from the same factory that makes Compustar , I think their is only 3 or 4 big factories in Asia that produce alarms and car starters..Its more software and remote controls that change from one importer to the next.

Also Samito Electronics (easycar/prostar) is supposedly headed by the ex-lead engineer of CompuStar.

yeap, i got that info straight from the sales rep of easycar. intereresting right ?
