Trackimo GPS tracker

a4tech8 years ago

I've been searching a good GPS tracker for a while now and found this new product with low startup cost and low monthly ongoing cost. So I decided to give it a try.

Now I have this GPS tracker for about a week. For the price I paid, I am satisfied, although they could make it so much better.

First the pros:

  1. It's pretty accurate outdoors or in vehicles.
  2. Small, easy to carry.
  3. Comes with a lot of accessories
  4. Battery lasts all day.
  5. Web interface is functional
  6. Geo fence works
  7. History data is pretty useful
  8. Seems to be motion sensitive, which saves battery power.

Now the cons (or improvements needed):

  1. The silicone protection case should have a hole to allow charging. Otherwise it is really a hassle to have to get it on and off every day.
  2. Belt clip cover is hard to install.
  3. Could use a better instruction manual.
    4.The device doesn’t offer a one- or two-way calling option.

but if anyone here could recommend for a much better device, i would gladly appreciate it.

cheers! :)

i just talked to trackimo and they said it cannot be switched to a different server and that their sim card is built in (ie cannot be swapped out). are you using the traccar server with this device?

@a4tech, if it can't work with Traccar, please put a big warning message about it in your original message.

I am able to switch to my server, and getting data, before I was getting ASCII characters I could parse the data. Now coming raw data as below

*0a0000000001f4643130383639003832303000333032003732000000000000000a0000181e0001641800000a00030a0f080400#

Now not able to track those devices in my server, because I don't know how to parse

Dear Ganga nanda, This is not place to advertise tracking devices, we are asking technical questions. Beside what's makes you expert that brand is the best? Is because is yours or reselling ? There is hundreds other good brands. People not trusting MADE IN INDIA stuff, no local domestic support, many people bought cheap useless devices and now their place is junk box of recycle bind.

How do you switch server?
It would be super if we could use trackimo devices with traccar! The trackimo devices are great I think, I have lots of them. But support is bad, and history does not work as it should and I need the flexibility of traccar. The SIM is not build in, you can just put in your own, but i don't now how to configure the device.
