Talking to a policeman today who I know is a caravanner. He was asking about my security etc and advised that a spate of caravan thefts in scotland have been down to crooks fitting home made trackers to the underside of the van while it's pitched on a site then simply follow the signal back to where it's kept/stored. Having a look online tonight I can buy the bits to make a tracker for under ten pounds and if you had the know, this could be built in half an hour. So something else for you to watch out for.

Guess that could tell them when you have gone away again so they can burgle your house.

Good point although I was thinking that they just follow the signal and come and take your pride and joy away one dark evening

So when I walk round the van with a mirror on a stick checking under the van, the neighbours will think I'm from the bomb-squad!

I don't understand how this works.
Let's say I'm a criminal who nicks vans.
I visit a caravan site & stick a tracker onto a van.
I then wait until that van goes home, maybe a couple of hundred miles away, maybe to a secure storage site, & then travel there & try to steal the van?
I'm sure I'm missing something important, but I can't see what I would get out of this scheme.

Can you send me the link for these trackers please - I want to put one on my own caravan. I believe you can track them with a smart phone.

no one's mentioned pikeys yet. I store my caravan in France which doesn't have the same problems as this overcrowded island.
