Only Tracking Devices
What is a GPS Logger you might ask? It's a device that will register it's position from a GPS (global positioning system) satellite.
So you just purchased your son or daughter their first car. They tell you that they are going to the movies with a friend and then to get
a bite at a popular restaurant. OK, great, but as a concerned parent how can you be one hundred percent sure he or she is being honest?
The easy answer is to place a GPS Logger in the vehicle, leave inside (it can be anywhere in the vehicle such as the glove compartment, under the seat etc..)
for a few days, or a week or so then retrieve it, connect to your pc and download all the details. Now you will know the truth.
Loggers are not expensive at all. Ranging at about $200 with no monthly fees at all they are a bargain. One very popular GPS logger is the
SleuthGear iTrail GPS Logger - H6000. Priced at only $169 and measuring at a tiny 1.5" x 1.5" this little wonder can fit virtually anywhere, not only in vehicles but backpacks, suitcases etc..making it our top logger. Here is more detailed info. on this great device and how it actually works:
Simply place the small iTrail unit wherever you like - your car, child's backpack, virtually anywhere! The logger will record location, speed, time, and displays this information on an easy-to-use interface powered by Google Maps and Google Earth.
Simply turn on the unit, and place it where you would like. The unit will constantly record up to 120 hours of data. To retrieve the information, plug the unit into your computer via the included USB/charging cable. You can then download the information to a detailed printable report and view in Google Maps or Google Earth.
The iTrail is water resistant, meaning it can be mounted outside as well. Strong magnetic box available for vehicle mounting. When not in use, an on-board motion sensor puts the unit to "sleep" to conserve battery power. LED status lights also indicate when the unit is powered on, when it is tracking, and when the battery is low or the memory is full. System Requirements: PC with Windows 2000, XP, Vista, or 7- USB 1.1 or 2.0 Specifications: • Built-in motion detection • 64MB memory • Built-in rechargeable 750mAh Li-ion battery • Cold start satellite acquisition time: <35 sec • 2 LED indicators for power/status notifications • Product weight: 1.3oz Includes: • Installation mini-cd • USB charge/transfer cable
I personally own one and I wish I would have purchased it a long time ago. It has saved me money and provided something more important, peace of mind.
