Queclink Wireless Solutions, a global provider of IoT devices and hardware, has launched a rechargeable tracker designed for temporary fleet monitoring or stolen vehicle recovery (SVR) solutions. The compact GL330MG device possesses optimised power consumption and advanced connectivity, enabling extended battery life without sacrificing real-time responsiveness, location visibility and ease of deployment.
“Most battery-powered fleet trackers face a familiar power management dilemma. Either keep the device continuously responsive and quickly drain the battery or put it into a sleep mode and make it unreachable until the next scheduled report,” explains Vernon Bonser, International Sales Director at Queclink Wireless Solutions. “We have improved power efficiency, alongside additional connectivity features and installation-free design, to deliver a highly flexible tool that supports up to two months of operation.”
A Smart Ping, based on enhanced eDRX (Extended Discontinuous Reception) technology, keeps the GL330MG tracker in an ultra-low-power state while still allowing an IoT platform to request a location or send a remote command when needed. This optimised power management is combined with a 2600 mAh rechargeable battery to provide up to 1,500 hours of online-on-demand operation and a 10-minute reporting schedule.
The GL330MG combines several positioning and connectivity technologies to provide a more flexible tracking foundation. Even with multi-constellation GNSS (GPS, BeiDou, Galileo and GLONASS), trackers can become less reliable inside buildings, covered parking areas or other obstructed settings. Therefore, the device supports BLE 5.2 and Wi-Fi scanning for reliable location visibility across more operating environments.
With a compact 77.9 × 39.9 × 26.7mm and 95g design, the GL330MG is easy to conceal with an installation-free design that allows it to be deployed without any permanent vehicle modification. This makes the device particularly suitable for temporary vehicle monitoring, such as short-term rental and replacement vehicles, or Stolen-vehicle recovery. The device also has a number of security functions including motion detection and multiple geofence regions.
“The GL330MG is a flexible solution that can be discreetly installed in a vehicle without hardwiring. The Smart Ping innovation keeps the tracker asleep to save power, but reachable when the platform needs a location, while accommodating a larger battery than many ultra-mini trackers. This latest device builds on our longstanding expertise delivering fleet and asset tracking deployments globally, with clear upgrades on previous solutions,” concludes Vernon Bonser.
