What passive alarm are you using? Is it the stock one, or something aftermarket? I park with the top off and tube doors on a lot, so any added piece of mind would be great. You said quietly notifies you, so do you have something that goes to your phone?
Mine is a Viper 5305V 2 way LCD with a 1/4 mile range. My alarm guy tweaked it some but in my opinion it is the best you can get.
So, you're just running around pulling your gun on people?
That's why you need that 1 farad Supercapacitor installed!Makes for a good joke and fun, but 12 volts ain't enough for even a tingle. I've dealt with auto electric for decades and that includes taking the hot wire off the back of alternators while leaning on the engine. Not even a tingle.
I can carry a battery by the terminals.
I know it's joking around but on the practical side in case someone is reading this and thinking - hey, good idea! No, it's not - you'd have to fully insulate the item from the truck's bumper and other parts. A hood ornament - you'd have to have rubber or cork between it and the hood, insulate the shanks of the screws and the screw heads from the hood.
Just saying - in case anyone takes it seriously and tries it - the only thing you'd fry is the wire you'd use to connect the battery to it as it would be a dead short to ground.
It won't hurt a person or even tingle - it's only 12 volts!
Like I say - I realize people are joking around, but just in case someone thinks it's serious and a car battery can zing you or it makes a good theft deterrent - sorry - no, it won't. Not enough voltage.

The shock from a car battery will not kill you. In fact, under normal conditions, a 12-volt car battery will not even shock you.
The whole country is just so humorless on edge and jumpy...
Especially those standing to the left of the stage.....
When I saw your post - I thought back to the images of the father with a teenage daughter sitting on the porch, waiting for the boy to pick up his daughter for their date............... he tells the young guy "I'll just be here cleaning my gun". sometimes you just have to laugh.
That's funny, more so because I've been cleaning a gun when my oldest daughter was going on a date and the lad showed up to pick her up. Asking him what his intentions were, seemed to rattle him, I'm guessing.
I was rereading this and thought about it some.... It might be a great used for the old capacitors from days gone or a old MSD system.Makes for a good joke and fun, but 12 volts ain't enough for even a tingle.

We did do that in college in the shop - there were a couple of guys in the class who were not the swiftest............... here, Al, think quick, catch this! ZAP!I was rereading this and thought about it some.... It might be a great used for the old capacitors from days gone or a old MSD system.
Mine make zero noise on the road even going over bumps.
I really like the new Bolt locking Monster Hooks, but they are so expensive Iād need to lie about the cost. If anyone buys them after this post, I take no responsibility.
