Directed Electronics Introduces Viper 7901 Responder HD

2009 Innovations Award winning Viper 7901 featuring Directed's most advanced color remote, operating a one mile range, 2 way security and remote start system with an upgraded user interface, mini USB charging port and patented menu wheel. Some of the milestones achieved by our team include:

  • Directed's first one mile range color remote, using 900Mhz Spread Spectrum Technology (SST)
  • Priority user interface based on Directed's patented menu wheel
  • New custom Viper animations to confirm user commands and illustrate system events on a 128 x128 pixel Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) full color high contrast panel with a wide 160 degree viewing angle employing an anti-glare polarizer for enhanced daylight visibility
  • 20% larger OLED display panel than any previous Viper LCD on a keychain remote
Having toyed around with the units displayed at CES, I can say that it is the easiest remote to use EVER! The menu wheel scrolls thru all of the features and capabilties of the system in plain English. The Viper 7901 is the new standard by which all other systems will be measured. The Responder HD will also be available in the Clifford and Python lines. Pre-orders are being taken for this unit now, expected ship date to take place in early Q2.
