How to choose the right GPS tracker that suits your needs

The type of tracker you choose depends on what you need to do. If you need to track more than one car, or if you want to monitor something else — like a person or an object — you'll need a portable Best GPS tracker.

Some popular options include:

- VoV D10 GPS Vehicle Tracker which can be plugged into the OBD-II port under the dash

VoV H10 GPS Vehicle Tracker which is hardwired to the vehicle so it cannot be easily removed

- VoV X10 GPS Tracker which is a portable GPS tracker that can be used in a variety of applications

 

Portable, battery powered trackers like our VoV X10 GPS tracking device can be easily moved among multiple locations. They're so compact you can use them almost anywhere. Drop one in your husband's backpack on hike, place one in your teen's car, tie one to your forgetful mother's wheelchair. Optional magnetic mount is also free available; they allow you to mount a portable tracker under a vehicle when you don't want the driver to know it's there.

 

Battery life varies among trackers, and calculating how much time you'll get between charges is something of an inexact science. Most units will work for more a month without a recharge during what is considered average use (about two hours of driving or walking per day). The battery life of the VOV X10 is extraordinary compared to its competitors. That's not just because it carries three times as much power(6200mAh), while other competitors only have around 2200mAh. In addition to the increased battery capacity, it also uses a higher performance, lower power consumption chip. Our software engineers have optimized its algorithms so that we can achieve about five times the usage time of the competitions under the same usage conditions.

If you know you only need to monitor one car, a hardwired vehicle tracking system is your best choice. A hardwired GPS trackers like our VOV H10 get their power from your car's electrical system, so there are no batteries to charge. They require a quick, relatively simple installation and, they're completely invisible inside your car; the driver will only know it's there if you choose to tell him.

 

If you're comfortable with simple automotive electrical work, you should be able to install a hardwired GPS tracker yourself. If not, your local car stereo shop or mechanic can usually do the job in less than a half-hour.

 

Like hard-wired systems, Plug and Play GPS trackers get their power from your vehicle's electrical system, so they don't require batteries either. But there's no need for professional installation. For example, VOV D10 plugs directly into the diagnostic port located on or below your vehicle's dashboard, and it's compatible with almost any car manufactured after 1996.

 

Because they're connected to your car's onboard computer, Plug and Play GPS tracking devices also let you access some cool optional features as they become available in the software. For example, you can get engine diagnostics like vehicle speed, distance driving, maintenance reports, etc., You can use it to monitor your teen's driving behavior it can even immobilize your car remotely if t's stolen (only the hard-weird GPS track can do it). All of our Real-time GPS trackers report immediately the precise location of your car, to access real-time information on your computer or mobile device, a small monthly fee is required. But don't worry, you can pay as you go. There are no annual contracts or long-term commitments to sign. Some people are interested in tracking a specific event that lasts only a short time—a spouse's business trip, for example. That's why We offers the convenience of paying monthly without an annual commitment on every GPS tracker we sell.
