I have had both the Viper and this one. They both drain the battery.

I've had this same Compustar on a Nissan Rogue going 5 years, no problem at all. I also have a Viper 4806 on another car, has been great for 10 years.

I bought one back in October when it was on sale. It works perfectly, no issues with battery drain and the BestBuy tech was awesome. He asked all the questions on how we wanted it to work (it can be configured different ways), explained everything thoroughly, walked me through it and said if we had any issues just give him a call or bring it back in. It's been working flawlessly since. The BestBuy service was the best service experience I've had in some time. It blew me away because I wasn't expecting it based on my experiences with BB service years ago.

I've even thought about getting one for my car even though I probably won't have it much longer.

Just wanted to add, we use it daily. Also, we can use the original fob by pressing sequences. For example, to start press LOCK UNLOCK LOCK and it remote starts.

How does this compare to other brands? I know there's viper and one other brand. I have a Viper that is a parasitic battery drain. I can't go a week without driving before the battery dies; less in cold weather.

I have a similar Best Buy Compustar unit installed in my 2022 Rav4. It works great with the exception that when you open the doors, the car stops and you have to restart it. It's a Toyota immobilizer issue with the push start cars. If you can live with this issue, it's a good purchase.

It will just shut down when you open the door so you will have to restart it . All Toyota PUSH TO START CARS are like that.

You should be able to start your RAV with the keyfob. Press "Lock", "Lock" and the hold down "Lock" for a few seconds; the lights will flash and it will start.
