Overview
Not a plain one-way alarm, the Avital 5308L adds a command-confirming two-way remote to remote start, a siren, an impact sensor and keyless entry. A second four-button one-way remote comes in the kit.
Confirmation on the remote and a start-from-a-distance feature are the reasons to consider it over a basic alarm. The kit also works with the SmartStart-Pro system named in the listing. The limitation is installation, which must be done by a trained professional.
Who it's for
Drivers in extreme climates and parking lots with long walks to the car get the most from remote start and confirmation. People who prefer a simple one-way alarm, or who want to install it themselves, should choose another route.
Pros and cons
- Two-way remote confirms commands
- Remote start included
- Siren and impact sensor
- Spare one-way remote
- Professional installation required
- Vehicle compatibility not listed
- Only one remote has two-way feedback
Performance notes
The two-way remote receives a reply from the vehicle, so the user knows whether a command worked. Range depends on obstacles and interference, and the listed distance is a maximum. The one-way remote sends commands without any confirmation back.
