When it comes to camper and motorhome security, most people only think about protecting their vehicle while it is parked on the driveway or left unattended at a campsite. But what about when you are actually inside it?
At PL-Autotek, we believe that true motorhome security should protect both your investment and you — even when you are fast asleep in the back of the van. That is exactly where the Starline S9 and its innovative Camper Mode come into their own.
The rise of vanlife and the increasing popularity of campervan conversions has unfortunately led to a rise in targeted thefts. Motorhomes are high-value assets, often filled with expensive equipment, personal belongings, and custom modifications.
Standard factory alarms are simply not enough to deter modern, sophisticated thieves who use key-cloning and relay attacks to bypass standard security systems in seconds. More importantly, standard alarms are designed to protect an empty vehicle — they are not designed to protect a vehicle that is currently being lived in.
The Starline S9 is widely regarded as one of the most advanced vehicle security systems on the market, and it is a firm favourite among our customers across St Helens, Liverpool, and the wider North West.
One of its standout features for van and motorhome owners is Camper Mode. When you activate Camper Mode before going to sleep, the Starline S9 intelligently adjusts its sensor network. It disables the internal motion sensors — meaning you can move around, sleep, and live inside the van without triggering the alarm.
However, the perimeter security remains fully armed and highly sensitive. If anyone attempts to force a door, tamper with the ignition, or break a window from the outside, the alarm will instantly trigger, the immobiliser will remain active, and you will be immediately alerted.
Camper Mode — Sleep inside the van while the exterior remains fully alarmed.
Anti-Key Cloning — Protects against modern relay theft techniques.
Engine Immobilisation — The van cannot be started without your unique authorisation.
Smartphone App Control — Monitor your vehicle's status directly from your phone.
