https://www.reddit.com/r/GPStracking/comments/1gz6g62/isolated_solution_no_internet_access/ December 2024 JKennex I don't know who makes the device, but I see it sold in the US as Trackhawk TH07, and outside as the Yabby, the Tifiz Xtrak, LoneStar, Oyster2, etc. I believe they are all the same, but configured/flashed for a particular brand. They claim 6 years on 3 AA batteries. Now, can they be reprogrammed to send the info to your server? Maybe if you find the actual manufacturer who offers them as white labels. Not sure the format used, but I suspect you will have a standard format. Alternatives that do work for Traccar, are Mictrack devices. They claim 7 years battery life, but don't seem as rugged as the other one. You mileage may vary. They start at $76 USD, so very reasonable pricing. And they have LTE-M (cat M1) as well as NB-IoT versions for long battery life. As for backend servers, I only played with Traccar, but here are alternatives I heard of: Gurtam, GPSWOX, GPS-Server, Navy, Flepsi, GPS trace, GPSGate, Fleet Stack. No clue which can be isolated from internet, but worth your time to check. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Trackhawk TH07 https://trackhawkgps.com/product/trailer-gps-tracker/ https://trackhawkgps.com/product/magnetic-gps-tracker/ https://trackhawkgps.com/product/trackhawk-gps-th-dash-gps-dash-cam-kill-switch/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mictrack MT700 https://www.mictrack.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I used the "LoneStar Tracking Hidden GPS Tracker - Oyster3 4G/5" Amazon listing below: https://a.co/d/dmsJUYC It worked great!!

You need a GPS tracker that's made for asset tracking (ie has its own battery). https://www.reddit.com/r/GPStracking/comments/1gz6g62/isolated_solution_no_internet_access/ December 2024 JKennex I don't know who makes the device, but I see it sold in the US as Trackhawk TH07, and outside as the Yabby, the Tifiz Xtrak, LoneStar, Oyster2, etc. I believe they are all the same, but configured/flashed for a particular brand.
