Pocket-Sized Geolocators

Find Pets, People or Possessions with the Garmin GTU 10 Tracker

— June 20, 2011 — Life-Stages
If you need to keep track of people, pets or property, the Garmin GTU 10 may be just the gadget you need. Once the Garmin GTU 10 is paired with Garmin’s service via an online setup, the unit will report its location to your iPhone or Android via Garmin’s Tracker app. It can also be tracked online and works anywhere so long as it is within range of a cell tower. The unit allows you to set up as many as 10 virtual boundaries, called geofences, and receive alerts when the geofences are crossed.
Whether you toss it into a backpack, hook it to a pet’s collar, or strap it onto a young child or wandering elder, the Garmin GTU 10 tracking features are the same.

Depending on the update frequency, you’ll get between one day and one week of use between recharges. Bonus for those who live in rainy climates or near water: the Garmin GTU 10 is waterproof!
