SPY Alarm LFQ-018C

Who has installed this alarm and what is your experience and opinion of this alarm ?

Thanks.

Just curious, when ZMC claimed the shock sensor can be adjusted, it's only during the installation or User can actually adjust it just like the SX dash display brightness adjustable knob on the side?

I used to have a 2 way alrms and to adjust the sensitivity of the shock sensor, I need to remove the sensor under the dashboard and access the control unit, pretty troublesome...

They mount the sensor at the bottom left side which you can easily access and adjust the setting to your prefer without taking anything apart

Ah, thanks. 8)

Called Kenneth of zmc several times, keep saying there is not stock for this model yet. He also said that it is not advisable to install the microwave sensor (+$30 more).

Can't really remember the reason given by Kenneth said, something about the wiring. Best you confirm with him directly HP:93866418. Sorry

actually what is the microwave sensor for ? To detect motion in the car ?

Motion "around" the car.

So if yours is a 2 way remote...

If a cat walks past.......

Heard the stock coming in today....time to call zmc and check it out.

Not advisable to install the microwave sensor? But it was part of the free gift during the GB woh.....funny leh

I didn't read that (free gift with GB). Though the price is the same as their website @ $128. The reason why I choose this model is that we can retain the KIA car lock control (I didn't like the design of the other controls that I saw)

Kenneth also told me that we can install at Geylang (day-time & weekdays only) OR IMM (night-time, weekdays & Weekends)

Installation takes about 1+ hr

Hi ctoh,

I have similar opinion as you. Don't want to render my KIA car lock control useless.

Anyway, did you add anything extra when you install LFQ-018C ?

Any comment regarding this model ?

so LFQ-018C got no microwave sensor?

what can it do?

i am alarm noob.
haha

Oh... I haven't install it yet... waiting for stock.

Last week Kenneth told me the stock will be in on Thu, can install in the weekend. Called him on Sun, said stock will be in on Mon or Tue. He said will call me to arrange for installation.

Anyone installed it already? Any comments? I want to know too!

bro. microwave is a addon device, detect movement around the car without touching the car.

I heard from some car shop in mysia its bad for health. Maybe LFQ-018C cannot install microwave into the device..... Keigo got his alarm with microwave but its a different ZMC alarm.

ohhh.. ok thanks.

always facinated by irritating car alarms and never have one yet.
still dun nid it yet ley, must find good reason for CFO approval.

Do we need to pay extra for the boot remote open function that comes with SX?

Kenneth said no need to pay extra as our SX already has boot release (I like this feature best) on the control

Is the stock available ?

Kenneth still haven't called me yet. Guess that it's not in yet

I smsed Kenneth just now and he said the stocks are here.

Cypher, can u take a pic of the alarm module installed, LED lights that blinks and whereabout is the microwave module ?

Thanks in advance

Heard from Kenneth the microwave sensor will only be activated when we locked our car. By then, all ppl shd be out from the car liao unless self lock inside the car and start "rocks" the car....hahaha

The microwave sensor technology also used in the power saving motion sensor in some public/building toilets....shd be quite safe lah....

Hello Guys , dont worry microwave sensor is safe . reason why i always double check if users want microwave sensor on their one way alarm is because ................

2 way alarms - User can choose to on or off motion sensors through their remote.

1 way alarms - User CANNOT choose to on or off motion sensors through their remote .

Motion sensors are very very sensitive , therefore , some people using 1 way alarms can only adjust sensitivity through the device itself and not the remote . So some may think its troublesome , or irritating , but however , if you are very intro gadgets and will love to play with adjusting the sensors . We will gladly install for you under the GB promo ! hahaha cheers bro if you guys need anything call me .

LFQ018C is ready and installation can start tomorrow onwards ! cheer s!

bro as mentioned in other thread. LFQ018C with shock sensor and microwave sensor can still use stock remote instead of alarm remote?

Yes definitely , haha:)

Very well, i think its time to add more things for my ride

Its using the LED for the alarm indicator or we can switch to those mini scanner type?

I believe u can have a choice but of course need to top up for a LED scanner type indicator...

anyone going down to soonlee to do up alarm today ?

I am planning to do up the alarm at soon lee on thurs.

maybe if i free i go down see see look look

zmc, microwave sensor could potentially be a undesirable feature.

1. In the event, then a user want to disable it, can it be switched off from the device (rather than remote) or need to remove the cable ?

2. When the alarm is being installed, any hole needs to be drilled ?

Still hoping someone can post some pics on the placement of the alarm module, horn, LED etc.

Thanks.

u can ask keigo to post some... its hard to show pic coz some are hidden...

For those who had installed the LFQ-018C, please take some pics can ??

tish ... please take some pics and post it here after the installations .. thanks. Actually, I am still unsure whether LFQ-018C is suitable for my needs.

Can you all "explain" why this model was chosen ?

LFQ018C was chossen by myself because i didn't want to carry additional remote. I prefer the original remote with boot open function. I was looking at alarm "upgrade" with shock sensing and siren function initially. I only need 1-way alarm system and this is within my budget. Cheers.

same for me, i dislike the remote provided, i prefer KIA's remove. a basic shock sensor is enuff to scare off some noobs, but if there is a pro, maybe only electricity n flame thrower alarm will be useful lol

4pm, around that time i may need to go fetch my wife liao... paiseh bro its late. Thats y i choose to do in the morning too hehe

I know nothing about alarm. So pardon me for asking lots of questions.

Hopefully, zmc is reading this thread too.

When LFQ-018C alarm is armed and assuming someone is trying to break into the car, the alarm goes off and nobody cares and owner of the car is nowhere near ...

So what can LFQ-018C prevent or stop ?

Hi CK7373, where you installed this LFQ018C? saw at zmc web the price is 128, but how much the dealer charge including installation? and how is it performance?
