Ground Control to Remote Start | The Resident Geeks

Kyle, with some inspiration from Ashley, equips his car with an extended range DIY auto start system with components from DigiKey. Kyle uses the 3G Electron Kit from Particle Industries which includes the Electron, a Taoglas antenna, USB cable, LiPo battery, and a SIM card. The circuit board was created using Autodesk Eagle PCB design Software. Check out the complete project on maker.io.
