The Ravelco Anti Theft Device is installed in an easily accessible place under or flush mounted in the dashboard.  A removable 16 pin male plug (which when not in use connects to your key chain) makes all the electronic connections. A hidden armored steel cable protects the wires from the rear of the RAVELCO base on through to the engine compartment where all the connections are made and camouflaged. When the plug is removed from the RAVELCO, it is impossible to start the vehicle. There are more than 100,000 different combinations. NO MASTER PLUGS.  An impossible obstacle for even the most persistent thief. No Bells or Whistles . . . Just Results!

WHY IS THE RAVELCO EFFECTIVE?

Underneath the dash the wires enclosed in the Ravelco unit are protected by steel. All the wires are of the same color, and no patterns for pairing. Inside the engine compartment, all the wires are hidden deep inside the factory dealer wiring, and behind engine components. Thieves want to get in your car and be gone within minutes. A thief would have to unravel your car’s electrical system along with components, just what they do not have time to do.


 ››The Ravelco is keyed to each vehicle
By design, there are no master plugs for the Ravelco Device. Be assured that only your plug will work on your vehicle. More than 100,000 possible combinations for the Ravelco Anti-Theft Device, the specific physical signature of your vehicle's plug cannot be guessed. The base unit is installed in your vehicle, either bracket mounted under the dash or flush mounted in the dash. When you leave your vehicle, remove the plug from the base unit and attach it to your key chain.Without the plug, electricity cannot flow to key vehicle components. Because we are disabling various engine components, there is no power draw from the battery, and no need to replace batteries in a remote like alarm systems.

  ››100% Effective and Reliable
It is not enough that an anti theft device is 100% effective in preventing thieves from hotwiring your vehicle. You also need the peace of mind that comes from knowing that each and every time you insert the Ravelco plug, the vehicle will start reliably, ensuring that technology designed to prevent theft doesn't inadvertently prevent operation of your vehicle. The Ravelco is made in the USA of the highest quality. Ravelco Anti-Theft Devices that were installed 20 years ago are working just as reliably today.

  ››The Ravelco works with other systems
For owners who want to have layers of protection, an alarm, anti-theft device, and a tracking system, the Ravelco is the perfect fit. The Ravelco device will not interfere with the function of any additional securities.

  ››Our Lifetime Warranty
We are so confident in the quality of the Ravelco Anti-Theft Device that we offer a Lifetime Warranty for the original owner. If the system wears out, we’ll replace it for free. Additionally, if your vehicle is subject to a theft attempt, we will come out and ensure your Ravelco is operating normally at no cost.

EYE OPENER FOR THE PUBLIC!!!

On September 25th 2001 in Mexico City, where an estimated 200 vehicles are stolen each day, the Ravelco Anti-Theft Device was put to the test. CESVI-MEXICO, a company owned by the seven major insurance companies in Mexico, tried to hot wire and steal a Nissan Sentra equipped with the Ravelco device.

CESVI-MEXICO said they would approve the Ravelco if it passed the 8-Minute Test, by preventing professional thieves hired for the occasion from starting the vehicle within an 8-minute timeframe. At that time, no theft device or alarm ever took more than three minutes to bypass. But after cutting wires and trying for 35 minutes to bypass and disable the Ravelco, the company's hired thieves gave up.

As a result, CESVI-MEXICO approved the Ravelco.
