Which GPS tracker is the best? WITHOUT plan, preferably....

Hi,

after yet another close call I decided to not ship anything valuable anymore without a GPS tracker. I regularely ship cars and boats from the US to Europe, sometimes pretty valuable stuff that can not get a proper insurance coverage.

My 1992 911 C2 was stolen from the docks, but it surfaced in 48 hours without any major damage. Had I used a GPS tracker I would have saved two sleepless nights.

So, I want to invest in a GPS tracker. Which one do I chose? I don't want one with a plan, since I might ship 4 times one year and then nothing for 2 years. I would like to just put it hidden in the car, turn it on and then just watch it travel to Europe for 3-4 weeks.

I don't need any fancy user interfaces, just a device that sends the position to me once an hour or so. Preferably one that has good reception, since the car might be in a container.

Any ideas on what I should buy?


Regards,

Johan
