It has a four watt transmitter, and the smallest pager of simular systems. Cost was $120.00 for the xmitter, reciever, two resonant sensors, and installation parts. The unit automatically turns on every time you turn off the car. I have not yet found the limit of its effective range. It works over a several block distance, and into metal buildings quite well. Hopefully I will never hear the beeper go off when I do not expect it to. I can tell you that the system is great for some peace of mind when you are parked in a bad part of town. I don't know if the auto page is the best system, but it certainly works quite well, and has a good warranty. Keven Boyett tektronix!tekid!kevenb
