I bought this a few months ago but now no longer need it.
Brand new, with NZ receipt. Manufacturer AVS warranty of 3 years if professionally installed.
Note: This is the + model.

Description - here is the blurb!

The AVS 3010+ includes all the usual alarm features but also a battery back-up siren and dual stage shock sensor.

The AVS 3010+ also includes two waterproof remotes. Unlike remotes on many basic alarms these waterproof remotes have the same reliability and build quality as the top models. The buttons are clearly marked and easy to push.

Operation

Two waterproof AVS rolling code remotes

Use the popular waterproof AVS remotes to arm/disarm your alarm and lock/unlock the doors. Plus only with AVS do you get a 1-year warranty on your remotes.

Central locking

The alarm can lock/unlock the doors when the alarm is armed/disarmed for easy keyless entry.

Immobilisation

The AVS 3010+ alarm includes two immobiliser circuits. Starter motor and ignition system or fuel pump immobiliser cuts are made so the car cannot be started unless it is disarmed via the remote.

Intrusion Alerts

Dual stage shock sensor

The shock sensor helps protect the body and cabin of the car by giving a warning on a light impact and a full alarm on a heavy impact to the vehicle.

Door, bonnet and boot protection

Battery back-up siren

Price: $150

Curtain & Blind Safety in Your Kids Bedroom

Robert Anderson from Curtain Clean (Hawkes Bay Chem-Dry)

As a parent or parent-to-be, your number one focus will be the health and safety of your kids. In fact, it doesn’t matter whether they are 18 months or 18 years, we always have their best interests in mind – even if they don’t listen anymore!

As a parent or parent-to-be, your number one focus will be the health and safety of your kids. In fact, it doesn’t matter whether they are 18 months or 18 years, we always have their best interests in mind – even if they don’t listen anymore!

However, the home environment can present many dangers to young children. Take curtains and blinds, for example. Although they look great in a room, there’s a risk that kids can hurt themselves if they play around with them.

As such, what are the measures that you can take to ensure that they are safe in your home? Let us explain.

Keep your windows child-safe: Keep babies’ cots well away from windows and ensure that all blind and curtain cords are out of reach. This may mean not placing furniture next to windows – toddlers love climbing!

Child safety devices: You could install a safety device that adds another level of protection. This allows cords to be tightly wound around a cleat and out of reach, alternatively you could opt for electronically operated blinds.

Reduce the hazard: It is important to be aware at all times of child safety around the home. An extra safety measure is the installation of a safety device that either removes the cord loop or limits access to cords. A tension device (either a chain tensioner or cleat) can be anchored to the wall or floor so that young children cannot play with cords or put them around their neck.

Selecting the right curtain fabric type: There is no doubt that kids love to pull and tug on items around your home. While you can tell them off as many times as you like, it might be a good idea to invest in stronger fabric type for curtains in a kid’s bedroom.

For example, sheers and voiles – while they look great in a baby’s nursery, these fabrics are too lightweight and prone to damage especially when your youngest becomes mobile and wants to practice their climbing skills! In a kid’s bedroom, you’ll want a strong fabric that can take the odd pull and is also easy to clean should they get dirty.

If you need help, give us a call on 0800 579 0501 and we can offer helpful advice. We can also provide safety devices to keep your blind cords out of reach.
