https://support.thetileapp.com/hc/en-us/articles/200547688-Is-my-Tile-dust-or-waterproof- Tile Pro is only “splash proof” with its IP55 rating. The convenience of a replaceable battery means a lower weather ability versus the sealed Sport tiles (IP67). I am not sure you will be able to “track” a ferel hog in the manner you expect. Tiles use Bluetooth to communicate (with phones) and the Pro tiles list their range as 300 feet (less in brush probably). The phone app then uses its cellular and gps connections to “locate” the Tile periodically. The app can’t know where the Tile is unless its within range long enough to recognize it. You’l have to walk along within range of the hog’s Tile to “continuously track it, or happen to wander within range at the feeding or bedding times to get a location mark. The location recorded is the location of the phone. To locate the out of sight Tile you could signal the Tile to ring and if you hear it, find it. The app can also give you a rough indication of relative proximity based on signal strength (getting warmer or colder so to speak).
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Not sure if water proof, but the range is only 300 ft on the pro. You would probably be better off with a dedicated dog tracker like whistle that includes gps and cellular also. NOt much more in price.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Only the Pro versions are weather-Proof. Your proposed is she does not seem practical - having come from a farm and livestock ranch.
