Solar Powered Asset GPS Tracker

Innovations are the stronghold of Meitrack, we proudly introduce the TA255 Asset Tracker.

In the ever-evolving landscape of asset tracking technology, a groundbreaking solution has emerged – the TA255 solar-powered GPS Tracker. This innovative device is set to revolutionize the way we monitor and manage assets, particularly in the logistics and shipping industry.

The standout feature of this GPS tracker is its sustainable solar power source. Equipped with advanced solar panels, the device harnesses the energy of the sun to keep itself operational, eliminating the need for frequent battery replacements or recharging. This makes it an ideal choice for long-term asset tracking without any interruption. It is equipped with rechargeable batteries that are constantly recharging with the solar energy it receives.

We designed the TA255 to withstand the harshest conditions, the tracker is encased in a rugged, weatherproof housing. This ensures it can endure extreme temperatures, humidity, and exposure to the elements, making it a perfect fit for tracking metal containers that traverse various climates and terrains.

Mounting the tracker on metal containers is a breeze, thanks to its magnetic attachment system. There’s no need for complex installations, saving valuable time and effort, making installation as easy as it gets.

Frequently Asked Questions

When picking a long lasting GPS tracker, think about its battery life, different tracking settings, how accurate it is, and how tough it is. Find trackers that are strong, waterproof, and have magnetic mounts so they are easy to put in place and can handle tough conditions. For instance, the TA255 from MeitrackUSA.com has a waterproof case and magnetic mount, making it good for many situations. Also, check its alert features and if it connects using 4G with 3G/2G as a backup. This will make sure you can always keep an eye on your assets.

How often you update your tracker’s location greatly affects its battery life. If it updates every few seconds, the battery drains much faster because it is constantly using GPS and sending data. But if it updates less often, like once a day, the battery can last for months or even years. Many trackers, including those from MeitrackUSA.com, have different settings. This lets you choose between tracking things in real-time and making the battery last longer. To get the most out of your tracker’s battery, you need to find the right balance for how often it updates its location.

Long-lasting GPS trackers are often made to work well in tough outdoor conditions. For example, the TA255 solar-powered GPS Tracker from MeitrackUSA.com has a strong, weatherproof case. This allows it to handle very hot or cold weather, humidity, and being outside. This makes it great for tracking metal containers that move through different weather and places. Similarly, other asset GPS Tracker are made for heavy equipment and construction sites. They have weatherproof cases and can work for years. These designs mean you can track your items reliably no matter how challenging the environment is.

To track assets well, certain features are really helpful. These include magnetic mounts for easy, hidden attachment and strong, tough designs that last in bad weather. For example, the TA255 from MeitrackUSA.com has both a magnetic system for simple setup and a weather-resistant case to guard against harsh temperatures and elements. Also useful are location systems with multiple technologies for better accuracy, motion sensors for instant alerts, geofencing to set safe areas, and tamper detection to stop theft. Together, these features make asset protection thorough and dependable.

Long-lasting GPS trackers use different communication technologies. Each choice affects battery life and coverage. Cellular options like 4G LTE-M and NB-IoT are widely used. They provide good coverage and save battery, especially for items that stay put and do not need frequent updates. LoRa (Long Range) technology uses very little power and can reach long distances. This makes it good for country areas or remote spots where cell service is limited. Satellite communication works everywhere. This is essential for tracking things in very far-off places without cell service, but it usually uses more power. The technology picked affects how quickly data is sent, how far it can reach, and how long the battery lasts for devices from companies like Meitrack. Choosing the right technology depends on where the item is, how much it moves, and how often updates are needed.
