A:AnswerYes. You can adjust the intervals of the notifications to track vehicle locations minutes by minute. The GPS is extremely accurate. It will even tell you how fast the vehicle was moving at the time of the ping.
A:AnswerNo, you cannot use a sim card. There is no private cellular service needed for this tracker. However, you do need to pay for their subscription service. I believe they use Verizon cellphone towers and are paired with other service providers to be able to triangulate the location.
A:AnswerIf there is no cell service the device will not be able to report its location, it will store the locations recorded from satellite but will not be able to upload it to the app until it has a cellular signal. Subscriptions l start at $16.50 billed annually and $19.95 for monthly. The subscription can be canceled and restarted at any time, the plan will run to the end date.
A:AnswerYou could use a battery pack to recharge if you needed. However, I just used it for 4 hours in the middle of the woods and it only lost 2% battery - 4% as of right now and its been 9 hours. It also can detect when you are home and will put itself into sleep mode to conserve battery.
Slightly concerned to as why you would use it in a metal shipping container but I believe it would work. As long as your cell phone works and there are ample cell towers nearby it will work.
A:AnswerIt would take some crafting to find a way to install it under your hood. It does have a nice feature that will alert you if it is getting too hot or too cold.
