TrackStick Family of Products

TrackStick GPS location recorders are intended as low cost alternatives to real time tracking devices. No installation is necessary and both Tracksticks can be directly integrated with Free Google Earth. No extra software is needed.
TrackStick II or the Super-TrackStick are available battery powered for mobility, whilst TrackStick Pro can be semi-permanently installed in vehicles or mobile plant.

TrackStick II

The latest proprietary low power GPS receiver keeps this personal GPS recorder running for up to a full week. Trackstick II can record its own Date, Time, Location, Speed, Direction, Altitude and Signal Strength. With 1MB of memory is the perfect solution for anyone that needs to know where something or someone has been.

Trackstick II can log weeks or even months of travel histories. User selectable features allow the record time to be changed from intervals of every 5 seconds and from 1 minute up to every 15 minutes.

Trackstick II and Super Trackstick are portable, can be carried on a belt, in a bag or purse or covertly installed. The job of passive tracking is done better, more cheaply, and more reliably than with cell phones. While Trackstick cannot be used for real-time tracking, it does not rely on cell towers, which might be down during any emergency situation.
