Battery life is up to you

You choose how often the tracker reports. Switch to 5-second reporting while you follow, then back again from your desk when the vehicle parks. Reporting a few times a day lets it run for months.

We measured it. Over six months of trackers in real use, reporting a position every few minutes while the vehicle moved, a full charge lasted 33 days typically, and between 24 and 62 days. Trackers on vehicles that barely moved lasted longest.

Power-saving, a few reports a day Months
Standby Up to 3 years

Battery life depends on signal, temperature and how much the vehicle moves. The platform shows the battery level with every report, and a low-battery alarm warns you in time to retrieve or recharge it.

Charging: USB-C. A full charge typically takes about 6 hours (4 to 8 hours measured). Charge the tracker fully before you place it; it ships configured and assigned to your account, but not charged.

Built for the outside of a vehicle

  • Built-in magnetic base.

    No brackets and no adhesive.

  • IP65 housing.

    Sealed against dust and water jets.

  • Works where it's parked.

    LTE-M and NB-IoT networks with 2G fallback. When GPS can't see the sky, it uses Wi-Fi and cell towers for an approximate position.

  • Tells you when something happens.

    Alarms for vibration, removal, low battery and over-speed, shown on the map and in the alarm history. A light sensor detects when the tracker is taken off.
