GPS CAR TRACKING SYSTEMS

[JC074]

ever used it dude? - I notice some of these things u need to use a SIM for a 2G network... I mean seriously> arent we like 3G now?

Nassi - may i ask where u sourced it? Im keen to see what these are all about

[nassi]

Bought as part of a group buy right here.
Seems to work very well. Been in the box for several years and I can still find it.

Is anyone looking into another group buy for those of us who missed out previously, Justin I think you volunteered didn't you? ;-)

[JC074]

What brand is it Nassi - any idea?

[jusTANG]

lets get a new list going and see how many we can come up with

[ozbilt]

What brand is it Nassi - any idea?

"Tracker"

[hybrid]

What brand is it Nassi - any idea?

Meitrack.
Keep in mind that if you buy another brand, I can't guarantee that it will work with the tracking website. If you only want to use SMS and not the tracking website, then you can buy whatever you like.

Thanks guy's, saved a walk to the shed in the rain.
cheers

If i go to ebay or similar - thi Meitracks sellers are all in China - anyone know anyone in erth doing these?

[hybrid]

I think I have a spare. How many do you need?
Mine is the MVT340

Also if you prefer to deal in Australia, the company I'm currently working for (but leaving at the end of this week) has the MVT380 which has a few more functions available.

This is our tracking product that we are introducing:

I will still be helping STS out with this product even though I'm leaving.
The MVT380 is $150 ex GST and postage.

We've been talking about doing a cheap monthly/yearly tracking price for Mustangtech users. But this "club rate" would mean no "official" support - only support via the forum between other tracker users.

We've been thinking about a yearly fee of $200 - thoughts?

[nassi]

Jase, its unlikely that I'll use mine so if Hybrid dosnt have a spare you are welcome to this one.
cheers

Hybrid - is it merely just a SIM card = wire it in and you're away?

If so what u want for it?

[hybrid]

Yes, you need a sim card for it to send SMS, or GPRS (internet) data or both.

If you want to be able to locate your device on a map, then you need to pay for a service such as the one STS is offering. Your device will check in to the server via GPRS/internet over a time interval that you set. So you can see where the vehicle has travelled, the speeds it was doing etc.

If you only want to operate it via SMS, then you don't need to pay for a tracking service. You just pay or your sim card and that's it. You can send a command via SMS and it will send you it's current location or last known location.

I have a free server that I run at home too that can also be used, but it's only good for mapping. It can't send commands to the device etc. As it's only running on my home server and internet connection I can't give any service guarantees (aside from the fact that it's free).

[OzStang390]

If we are starting a list or if someone has a spare... I'm interested in one... possibly two tracking units.

Cheers,
Glenn

I should be able to get the MVT380's at any time.
We have 10 in stock in Sydney at the moment in the office.

I think when we did the group buy they were $120 each anyway for the MVT340. It's been a while.
