okay well thats about as far as i got haha...iono which type of alarm to get from each of them. All i want is a loud reliable alarm and remote start would be nice. Any suggestion between these 2 company?

 

those 2 alarm are exactly the same thing one company to names DEI own both company but i would still go wit the viper iono y lol i got the one mile range 2 way alarm i would recommand getting one retail for about 600

 

Yea

 

can you tell me the model? and where can i get it for cheaper then retail

 

Check out the Viper 5900.

791 is good... usually can be found at bby...

the 5900 is better... bascally the same exact thing... just the 5900 has the 1 mile range...

the 791 has more like a half'ish mile range... or so...

5900 is like 600 retail...

791 is like 500 retail...

you could prolly find either on ebay for 200-250ish..

 

Well the 791 "claims" to have a 1/4 mile range, but alot of people don't get that range. So I'm guessing its gonna be the same for the 5900.

 

actually... i have had nothing but happy customers with the 5900... i put one in for a customer that said he could remote start his car from othe other side of our local mall... now i am not saying its a mile.. and usually to get a something close to a mile out of them you would have to turn the code hopping feature off... i would say max on the 791 1/4mile... on the 5900 max... maybe 2/3 of mile...

also remember differenct things all around can affect these distances... hell.. weather, security systems on buildings... ect.... but go with the 5900 its seems to stretch the distances a little more....

 

Yea I have the 791 right now. I'm looking to upgrade to the 5900 when I have a chance. DEI techs said basically you need to be in an open area to get ranges that they claim.

 

so the only difference between them is the distance range?

 

Between those two models, yes.
