Tracking Device recommendation

mojinto2 years ago

Hi,

I am looking for devices compatible with traccar in order to track about ten cars. From what I gathered, there are devices with battery included and devices which need external power supply.
Are there devices with both ? Our main goal is to track cars 24/24 even when they are parked.
So, ideally, I was thinking about devices plugged on car's battery which will use their own battery when cars are parked. Do such devices exist ?

Thank you in advance for your answer

Most devices are like that.

Thank you for your answer. So does it mean that the device's battery is charging when vehicle is moving ?

I guess it depends on how you connect it to the vehicle.

I use Teltonika devices like this:

They use the car's battery when parked as well. The power draw is so low it has no effect on the car battery. They have a small backup battery inside good for about 2 hours, generally for sending alerts like that the device has been pulled out.

Hi,

There are a lot of choices, also the Mictrack MT600 is one of the tracking devices as your requirements.
