Wired GPS Tracker for Vehicles
The Optimus 1 is a hardwired GPS tracker designed for cars and trucks that connects directly to the vehicle battery using a two-wire positive and negative installation. It operates on cellular networks with a 12-channel receiver and provides real-time location data accessible via a smartphone application. The device requires an active SIM card and data plan to function.
Upgrade from Plug-In Trackers
This unit replaces portable or OBD-II plug-in trackers by drawing constant power from the vehicle battery, eliminating the need to recharge internal batteries. The jump is worth it when you need continuous tracking without physical access to the device, along with driving reports and one year of historical data saved during active service.
Fleet Owners and Anti-Theft Users
The tracker suits individuals, families, and businesses monitoring vehicle location, speed, harsh driving events, and geofence alerts delivered by email or text message. Buyers who want a tracker with no subscription fees or those needing a device that operates without cellular coverage should look at other options.
