I’m looking at a hard wire tracker as I don’t want to worry about dead batteries. I’m looking at 3 different brands, CUBE, TRACKMATE, OPTIMUS. Anyone have feedback on these brands?
i recommend winnes gps trakcer, they have one model, wired gps tracker, Connect the tracker's wire to vehicle battery positive and negative for car DC 9v-95v. This will enable most features such as: location, tracking, geo fence, speed, shake and device disconnected alarm. It also charges the internal battery.
I need a tracker because my older brother takes my car regularly and I can’t tell him no but at the same time I’m afraid that he goes to shady areas, need to keep an eye on him
Just subscribed… brand new turo host here. I’m buying the magnetic tracker and later I’ll be buying the kill switch. Buying both using your affiliate links. I have an appointment set with Best Buy in order to install the kill switch in 2 weeks. And was debating whether I should just get a tracker now and start turo. Bouncie was the only one I knew of. Or should I just wait until after my appointment. Now I’m more certain I’m going to buy the magnetic one, and go ahead and start my turo journey. Then in 2 weeks I’ll install the kill switch gps Thanks for the info.. here’s to hoping you get more subscribers Also where should I put the gps tracker when I get it? Thanks 💪🏽
Thanks for subscribing bro 😎🤙🏼 I love the magnetic tracker. If you get a Bouncie, make sure to put a Y splitter to hide the tracker. I’ll make a video soon about the Y splitters. What vehicle do you have on Turo?
I had the Optimus tracker (3) and they were decent but the batteries never lasted more than a week or two at the most. My Camry just came back from a 3 week rental and for 2 weeks I was nervous because the tracker died after a week, smh. Thank God the car came back with no issues. Now that I had to switch my fleet insurance because Lula dropped me after 9 months, the new company required a tracker so I cancelled with Optimus. No more charging or worrying if it will last if rented for a long period, also it tracks a lot more things, etc. Never had one last a month. They must've sold me some refurbished trackers !!
Are the ones you use OBD port trackers? The Optimus tracker comes in a couple options. The cheaper one last 2 weeks with a fully charged battery & the higher priced one lasts a month. I had a 5 week rental that it left with a fully charged battery & came back with 11%. OBD port trackers do provide more info, but a savy thief knows he can EASILY remove the tracker by unplugging it with out any struggle. Thats my concern with OBD port trackers… but they do provide more statistics 📈
Sure, they said because I didn't have 5 vehicles. But they knew that when they first signed me up and took my money for 9 months that I only had 3@@liveevents9191
I want to do this for packages, specifically something small enough for an envelope. Had several letters dissappear amd my mother mailed a gift card to my cousin and that disappeared. If the cops don't do anything I'm sure they'll eventually learn the lesson after their car gets smashed up everytime my letter goes missing
Actually you should by two trackers. One OBD port tracker and one discrete one. I a thief sees the OBD port tracker and removes it he will most like not search for a second one, and in turn allow him/her to still be trcked unknowingly. Think about it as a decoy.
There is a dummy connector that you can use with the Bouncie that plugs into it and looks like the stock OBD plug while the Bouncie is plugged in behind the steering column totally unnoticed. To me that would make the Bouncie the better more reliable and cheaper choice.
I have track mate on my cars but for those of you that have bouncie or similar device. You can relocate your obd port to a more discreet area. Maybe have a dummy unit in original location or not.
@@barbararuiz3059 it works by bluetooth, but it works on ios, so basically anyone near it with bluetooth on and an iphone when you are out of range with your own phone, will ping it and send its location to the cloud. Its a passive think that runs in the background on everyones iphone networked to the cloud. Like find my iphone
@@barbararuiz3059 not sure about the Atuvos…. But the magnetic tracker I use does. I live in los Angeles & had a guest drive my car to New Orleans & I was able to track every movement & speed.
My God yeah, I used to live in Manhattan Beach before I moved to Cabo San Lucas. I lived on East Manhattan on Curtis avenue near pennicamp School and then I moved to the strand and lived in the North end of town by portal. I raised my kid there. He graduated from MiraCosta
As far as Im aware, you can locate an AirTag that's thousands of miles away or even internationally, providing it is within Bluetooth range of an iPhone.
I have a question ⁉️ I live in New York City and I have a house at Puerto Rico what I use a tracker for my car would it work from there from a distance.
Thats a great question… Im not 100% sure… what I do know is I was able to track my car from Los Angeles to the east coast with no issues. Not sure about outside of the US tho 🤷🏻♂️
