Auto Alarms Designed To Draw 100 Amps

[Bret Cahill]

Require auto alarms to include circuit that pulls over 100 amps as
long
as the alarm is on. If the alarm isn't shut down in 15 - 30 minutes
by
the owner the battery goes dead.

1200 watts worth of lights inside and around the car would help you
video the burgular, etc., so that would be the ideal 100 amp load.

So the thief just needs to walk down the street kick a few cars to set
the alarms off then walk back in 31 minutes and break in?

Well, at least they wouldn't be able start the car and drive it to the
chop shop. ;-)

But running a car battery down to zero usually wrecks the battery - there's
another fifty bucks or so down the drain.

It's not good for the battery, but doesn't destroy it overnight.

Any cars with manual transmission can still be push-started - especuially
if you can get them to the apropriate end of a good slope. it tqakes a bit
more push to start a card with a good but fully discharged battery than it
does one with a weak battery as you need to spin the altenator up enough to
power the ignition.

If the noisy vehicles are violating a civic ordinance and are parked on
the street you can possibly get them towed away. That's going to be as as
good of a lesson as a flat battery whist providing employment in the
community.

Civilised countries have laws that require alarms both house and car to
stop after a period, 12 minutes or somesuch.

Wots your REAL problem?

For that matter do you life dreaming up ridiculous problems??

What about despotisms where everthing is punishment oriented?

In those societies the only way legislation would pass would be by
taking $15 off the life of his battery.

It won't destroy it, but it will be damaged. The number of times you can get
away with this can be counted on your hands.

Any cars with manual transmission can still be push-started - especuially
if you can get them to the apropriate end of a good slope. it tqakes a bit
more push to start a card with a good but fully discharged battery than it
does one with a weak battery as you need to spin the altenator up enough to
power the ignition.

Hell, if you can push it that fast the transmission type doesn't matter
(though it's not good for some autos). Remember, without a battery the
alternator only has a residual magnetism.

If the noisy vehicles are violating a civic ordinance and are parked on
the street you can possibly get them towed away. That's going to be as as
good of a lesson as a flat battery whist providing employment in the
community.

....and fined.
