My observations:
I found useful against rodents when used in default settings. But when beep is turned off , its effectiveness is reduced to allow rodents. Installation was easy and no malfunctioning of the device or other side effects.
But rs.4k looked overpriced.

Good analysis
Nicely explained
Thank You Bro for the detailed review. I have ordered this product from the link you provided.
Thanks for watching the video & taking your time to comment 🙏👍
hope you've found it informative.
How it is working. I wanted to order. Is it worth. Please suggest.
Can you please make a video on how to disable or enable feature. User guide provided is totally useless
@krishnakumark4114
Sure. Did you mean, enable/disable of beep ?
Nice and simple... good job
👍🙏
Good explanation bro keep it up
Thanks 🙏👍
Thanks. As I don't see any video like u. Please post long term video. Thanks for your information
Thank you 🙏
I don't see any difference after long term usage. It is still working the same as shown in the video.
@@TechDevoteeIndia Thanks brother. Now I can buy it.
It is working fine and no rats coming inside car or engine correct?
Rats come but no wire cuts, as they aren't staying for long due to noise from the device.
I apply 3M rodent repellent once in a while also ...
@@TechDevoteeIndia Spray frequency?
Well explained and detailed video!
Quick Question: Couldn't find the long term use video, can you please share?
If not done, could you please do another video on it?
It works the same & my overall review also holds true., hence - didn't make a new video.
Is it working for anyone?
Hello sir, no need to do any configuration settings correct? If we just connect positive and negative terminals and proper wiring it is done correct? Default it is on when engine off and off when engine on ? No need to do any additional setting correct?
Yes, correct.
Insert positive first and negative. Then insert fuse.
While removing, remove the fuse 1st.
negative and then positive.
I have tried n number of solution given online, like tobaco, peppermint oil, neem oil, moth balls, rat spray, etc but nothing worked. But peppermint oil stopped rats for like 2 days though, but its very tedious to apply the oil daily. After all these I ended up buying CARCAT, it started working from day 1. Now there are no rats in my car.
Good to know 👍
helpful than other videos in youtube
Thanks for your support 🙏
If we start the car weekly once,then how about the battery and device status?
Start weekly will manage battery provided you run vehicle for 1 hour or so , after starting - so that battery gets properly charged.
I forgot to start one weekend and when I went to start next weekend - battery was fully down 👎
So, please be watchful
Is it possible to cover the entire underneath of engine bay with a mesh, to.stop rats entering at the source.I purchased a Chinese rat repeller similar to this from Ali but with this unit I can hear the high pitch tones emitting.Thanks
Covering as you mentioned is possible but it's skilled labour. Not being done in the brand service center, so we need to do at risk outside
@@TechDevoteeIndia Which areas did you cover with a rat mesh in your car?Thanks
One at AC inflow area and another behind (near boot space) , with small mesh done at Maruti Suzuki authorised service centre.
@@TechDevoteeIndia Thanks and appreciate the prompt replies. Good luck👍
Hi, I want to know about this product, are you using the same product till now..? If so is it working effectively now and how will you rate this product in all aspects..?
I'm still using and it's same as shown in this video.
Overall, I rate 3.5 out of 5 - as the battery drains fast if you keep the car idle for a week continuously...
As I mentioned in the video, it's not 100% perfect solution...
bro i hv installed today....i can only hear the beeps and see the led blinking....do we hear the untrasonic pattern???? or any other sound?
Record from mobile, it'll be captured there.
Ultrasonic sound won't be audible to human ears
Useful, tired of Rat Bite
Does need to clean engine bay 1st before use?
Yes. It is better to clean the engine bay before using.
Good device but battery drains .no ultrasound is audible for me.I have using it.any solution of it.anybady plz tell me.
Ultrasound won't be audible to human ears.
Just do video recording from your mobile , it records ultrasound and you can hear when you play video
@@TechDevoteeIndia I have checked no sound.and what about battery draining.
Yes, battery drains if you don't start car every week.
Coming to ultrasound, please raise concern with customer support and they'll replace the device or you can even ask for a refund if you don't like
How to enable or disable the beep. Please explain.
It's there in the user manual, very easy.. Difficult to explain in comments here !
By default, beep will be enabled
Carcat product just delivered to me today because mouse is moving inside my car engine area at night time and also I was keep my car inside the body cover too.
I don't want to use 3m spray because of health problem may occur so can I hope, I will get some relief in this problem?
I have not moved my car from the same place for a month and I started facing mouse issue.
You should start your car every 3 days for 30 mins. Otherwise, your battery will be down when running carcat
@@TechDevoteeIndia I can't believe this because if in 3 days battery will be down then this product is big failure.
May be your car running with some other systems like anti-theft mode or something else....
I will share my experience here and I will attach the device after getting information about the watt so how many days it will survive, I can get exact information.
Sure.
I didn't mean to say the battery will be totally down in 3 days !
Fully charged battery will do till 1 week but good practice to start car every 3 days to maintain good battery charging level.
But after 10 days or so of keeping car idle, even ignition won't work!!
They have written in user manual also to start car every week or so.
@@TechDevoteeIndia Thank you sir for your proper explanation :)
I think this our discussion become useful to many users....
I have installed just an hour ago within my Maruti Ertiga and let see what will happen in the future :)
Hi, same problem in my innova. Please suggest if this product is use full. I will buy. I can start my car at least once in 3 or 4 days for getting battery charged. But my target is 🐀.
Hi, Thanks for the video. Any update after long term use. Kindly share your feedback and experience.
I'm still using it, it's working as is.
No rat bytes in wiring since I started using this device. But rats rodents will enter inside but they won't stay. Dropping noticed few times but at small extent.
Few things to note -
1. Unless you run car for 30 mins or so a couple of times a week - the battery gets discharged due to this device.
2. Don't turnoff default beep from this device. Doing so will reduce irritations to rats rodents.
3. No actual solution exist to resolve rats problem fully. So, I use 3M spary as well once in 2 months along with this device. I've installed rat mesh near AC vent as well. These are collectively working as workaround with car cat device as major player here but not a solution to problem. It totally minimises rat problem by 90% - remaining 10% is problem with droppings if I don't use 3M spary every 2 months
Do you apply 3M sprey by yourself? If yes pls provide link from where you buy it.
Yes, I apply 3M spray myself and did it yesterday once.
I bought it from Amazon: amzn.to/41VxuDf
But ensure to take below precautions -
1. Apply safety glass, gloves & face mask , when spraying. It's a very strong odour & spray gas moves to long distance.
2. Wash engine bay clearly & dry before applying.
3. Apply only in shadow. Either before 8am or after 7pm.
4. Apply when the engine is not started from last 10 hours atleast.
5. After applying, don't start the car for 2-3 days.
6. Don't apply on glass, as it cannot be removed.
Sorry if it looks over -information !!
Well. It doesnt affect the battery life of the car when it is off
Battery life won't be affected. But battery consumption will be there for sure
Does this repell bandicoots or big size rats?
I'm using it against rodents, it almost works ! After using this, no wire cuts from rats n rodents
Hi, what's your feedback after using carcat for long time? Does it works? I'm also facing rodent problem..
In simple terms - it's not 100% effective, rodents will enter but they don't sit for long to cut wires.
Only major problem is that it drains the battery, if you keep the car without starting for 1 week stretch.
I spray pepper mint oil in between and also use 3M rodent repellent along with carcat.
Will this device work for repelling cats? I have a few kittens who like to sleep in the engine bay
Not very sure, but its noise (ultrasonic) is very irritating and cats/dogs didn't reach near my car... but don't take it as evidence, maybe it's a coincidence !
You can give a try
Is that effective ?? Your ling term experience and review ??
Effectiveness is same as I have explained in video. Not a 100% solution but no wire cut happened from rats after installing this device. Rat enters though
Good video..!! Helpful..
What is the effectiveness now? just curious to know that..as it's almost 6 months since the video is posted, is it worth investing?
It's the same since the beginning. Functional as expected.
It will not stop rodents entry but distracts rodents with ultrasound which makes them disappear in a few minutes - few droppings are still seen. No wire cutting done by rats/rodents, as they can't stay for long.
Battery drains if you don't start your car every week, as in the user manual.
This ultrasound device alone can't be the solution, I'm using 3M spray outside the car , like near wheels etc.
Moreover, there can't be single solution to rats problem, as they get used to any new trick.
This ultrasound device is just one of the tricks.
So, you can't expect 100% effectiveness.
In my experience, it's 80% effective. But 100% effective to car battery if you don't start your car once a week for 1 hour or so 😅
@@TechDevoteeIndia Thanks for the detailed feedback, appreciate that. I am also troubled with this problem. I tried almost every trick. I went to 3M and did the proper rodent treatment, which is as good as spraying their solution by ourselves :D, after that for 10 days or so there was no issue but then they get used to that, I tried Liqui Moly rat repellent it was effective compared to 3M one but then they got used to that as odor fades over the period of time. Then I tried keeping tobacco + naphthalene balls pouches, with their smell they stopped for a while and yesterday when I went to check car after 5 days of no drive, all of those pouches were cut by rats and kept on one side in the car, that's how smart they really are, I am spraying pepper mint oil mixed with water as well, it makes them stay away for while, but yeah basically the way I see it, there is no solution :(.
Does this drain your battery or kill your battery over time?
It definitely consumes battery. If you don't use your car for 7 to 10 days, the battery goes down.
In the product page, they've actually mentioned to turn on the car once in a few days, so that the battery charges.
Hi Bro this is really a detailed video and thank you for the this content.. are you still using this product..? I am fedup with rodents and planning to buy this device. Before buying I need you suggestion. Is it still effective in getting rid of rodents.. please suggest
Thanks for watching the video and appreciation.
Yes, I'm still using it and it's the same as shown in the video.
I use 3M spray as well along with this.
Please be informed that device won't block rodents entry but it creates irritating waves and rodents will move out in few minutes.
I suggest you to try with 3M spary first. Don't use your car for 2 days due to smell.
With this, rodents should stop for sometime.
If you are allergic to 3m spray, you can buy this device by keeping limitations in mind as shown in video
@@TechDevoteeIndia appreciated your response, thank you very much
If when car is off, will the device work
Device works only when ignition is off.
It will go to stand by when ignition is turned on, as you don't need device when driving car.
Ghar me bhi use kar sakte h kya
Yes, but it generates ultrasonic waves. Don't keep near you, as small noise irritates.
Carcat withstand temperature?
No damages in my usage during long drives in summer ...
bro use dried tobacco leaf
I've tried but it didn't work 😕
I brought this product but it is useless against rodents.. it will stop only small mice and not bigger ones. I will tell you a suggestion, please place glue trap on front two wheels this will avoid you getting rats on your hood and save your 4k hard earned rupees.
Thanks for the information.
Best solution for this is rat mesh installation from front bumper to engine and sides fully packed 👍
@@simplesolutions-sv3me you’ll get issues on steer wheels of the car
@@wiresntires no complaint registered till now from past 2 years, we'll install the mesh perfectly and when the work is finished we'll have a test drive along with the customer that the customer should have no doubts, and it's a lifetime solution once you installed.
It's waste product plz don't buy , if this product is good, why there is no user review, all paid review
When I was buying, it was rated 3.9 on Amazon.
But no perfect solution on the earth for rodents or rats.
This product works but drains the battery unless you start car every alternate day.
Stops rat's stay in car but not entry. I'll upload another review by December.
@@TechDevoteeIndia bro your review??? Its feb already
Carcat4 is working fine without any issue other than little battery drain
@@TechDevoteeIndia bro does it effectively repels the rats ?? Or did you use repellent sprays along with this ?
Its a garbage scam product
