Savings of up to $1,000/yr in insurance?

Why? What use has the insurance company for this information, and how
does it reduce your risk enough to make that type of difference?

Either the companies want some data and are willing to pay for it, or this
is a tool to disallow coverage (or whatever the phrase is) given
information the insurance company would otherwise lack.

I'd not begrudge the companies accident data (esp. if they share with the
likes of ASF), but I'd not even consider installing such a thing w/o
written agreement that nothing in that box can be used to render insurance
void (or whatever the phrase is).
