Hi

Just seen your post and we are about to market a product which can allow for tracking via the mobile phone networks.

Along with this it is an alarm system which can also monitor intruder, gas leak and battery levels.

To get around low battery, it would be suggested a 500mA solar panel is connected to the battery and placed in the front window to allow for stand-by current and battery top up for around £80.

Send me a message if you want to know more.

Hi Brad 1961

Have a look at http://directions.ltd.uk/vehicle-tracking/ They have a very small unit (VTU009) which measures120 x 80 x 29 mm (Thick credit card ) which includes a highly sensitive SirfStar III GPS receiver and GSM mobile phone modem (900 / 1800 MHz) for two way communication, and Li-lon internal battery

 The cost is £330

In its deep sleep mode the current drain is less than 2mA.but will wake up to full mode, if the motion detector is activated ie van movements. Full mode gives realtime tracking with map.

I havent seen or use one but I am seriously considering using this one as their are no subscription charges The the only ongoing cost is for a telephone SIM card which I understand  Virgin do a PAYG SIM which does not require monthly top ups.

Kind regards
