No reliable power
Battery hardware avoids permanent wiring but needs a realistic reporting plan.
Trailers and non-powered assets
GPS Tracker for Trailers and Non-Powered Assets
Track trailers, containers and mobile assets that sit without fixed power, move between sites or disappear into busy yards.
Buyer concerns
Battery strategy matters more than a long feature list.
Trailer tracking is about reporting frequency, battery size, mounting, movement alerts, geofences and how the team responds when an asset moves.
Long dwell time
Assets may sit for days or weeks, so live-second reporting is rarely the right default.
Unexpected movement
Movement and geofence events give the team a reason to check earlier.
Mounting risk
Magnetic placement must balance concealment, signal and safety.
Hardware path
GT76 is the current starting point for unpowered assets.
The final profile depends on update frequency, battery capacity, signal conditions, temperature, mounting and who retrieves or recharges the tracker.
FAQ
Common trailer tracker questions.
How long will the battery last?
Battery life depends on capacity, reporting interval, movement, signal conditions and temperature. A realistic profile must be calculated before quotation.
Is magnetic mounting always enough?
No. Surface, vibration, exposure, concealment and retrieval rules must be checked.
Can it prevent theft?
Tracking cannot prevent every theft. It can shorten the time between movement, awareness and follow-up.
