It switches off when the ignition is on, and it cuts out automatically if the battery drops below about 11.5 V, so a vehicle that sits won't be left with a flat battery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eGerman-engineered, e1 approved and compatible with CAN bus vehicles.

A rodent that touches a plate gets a sharp, non-lethal shock, and the plate recharges for the next one. The plates work when the animal is also in contact with the vehicle's body, so placement matters: put them at the points where rodents climb into the engine bay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eThe ultrasonic speaker runs at about 22 kHz, up to about 100 dB. Treat the sound as a supporting layer. Rodents get used to sound on its own, and the plates do the real work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eWho it's for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eDaily drivers and vehicles that sit for days or weeks at a time.
