Hi Bev, I remember having talked about this one and your enthusiasm and my cooler anylitical way of looking at it.
The system is great but ask yourself a few questions: - Sophisticated criminals in developed may be deterred - Changers in developing countries could care less - Relative high cost to owner - Can and do the local SAPS do spot checks? - Are cars scanned at the borders? - Do car part dealers refuse to use dotted parts? - Bear in mind there are many competing products? All requiring different and often expensive equipment and training - bottom line the authorities and insurance companies will not support and pay for all. Unless a compulsory system is implemented. None of the Ins Companies refer typically to it on their sites. I was approached some 15 years ago by the owner of the original importers (Elvey Security) together with other collogues - and offered a free course in the UK - catch was we had to promote it what honestly I / we could not do, part for the reasons given. Think there are more cost effective solutions with as much high or low degree of success. Where it works possibly quite well is for very expensive designer clothing and high value articles to be automatically sprayed at the exit of premises (activated by motion detection).
