The recent post about a stolen and chopped up truck, and the suggestion to add a tracker, made me want to post this.
For the last five years, I've been using a device from a company called MoniMoto. https://monimoto.com/ I started out with a model MM6 (old and out of production) and now have had a MM7 for several years. Nothing went wrong with my MM6. When the MM7 was released, I emailed the company and asked if I could do an upgrade, and they obliged.
The MM7 is a completely self contained "alarm" and GPS tracker. It's EXCELLENT for motorcycles or other small things easy to move, but also works great for cars. It uses a pre-paid cell service, also purchased from the company. The service is $50 a year. The current model is about the size of a deck of cards, is powered by 2 AA lithium user replaceable batteries, and comes with a passive fob. It has a built in accelerometer in addition to the GPS chip.
They also have a MM9 which is smaller and rechargeable, and a smaller, cheaper version for pedal bikes.
The way it works, is you hide it somewhere in the vehicle. If the passive fob is not nearby, and the vehicle moves or even shakes (users can change the sensitivity) like when you stand up a bike, the device sends you an alert via app and simultaneously calls your cellphone. If somehow the vehicle is taken when there's no service, you can log into the app and tell it the vehicle needs to be tracked. The next time the device wakes up to check it's status (you can also change the interval for this) and it see's the alert, it begins active tracking.
It has given me fantastic peace of mind with my motorcycle. I believe I'm going to get another for my 'burb.
Here's an Amazon link. I purchased mine at a local Cycle Gear. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09Q69N4VT/
