Is there anything inherent in the empeg that would make my car alarm unhappy?

Nearly every time I park my car with the empeg in it, after 10--30 minutes the alarm goes off. I have turned the sensitivity of the alarm down to the point where it would probably take a collision by a good sized truck to set off the motion detector, so it's most likely a voltage change that is setting off the alarm.

I don't leave the empeg in the car very often, so I don't have a lot of rigidly correlated data, but I am guessing that at least eight times out of ten the alarm will go off. Once that happens, it will continue to cycle about every five minutes until I either turn off the alarm or go out to the car and remove the empeg, after which the alarm will function properly -- that is, not function at all until the next morning when I forget I had it set and open a door and wake up the neighbors.

I have the empeg's "standby" mode set to the default 60 seconds.
