gps tracker for pelican case

Some do airtags. Work pretty well from recommendations I've seen here.

Samsung galaxy smart tag. In a few years, you should switch to apple. I’ve used both and sending videos or pictures over apple is always way better

Unless you use something else to send them. I do WhatsApp with my family.

Ive got an s20+ and the wife is iPhone 12pro.

Figured that response could be a gamble. Agree with @clefairy on the galaxy tag. Haven't gotten into those since wife loses her stuff more than I do.

It’s just not the same clarity for WhatsApp. I can message my wife and friends 3 minute long videos over iPhones and the video is clear as if I recorded it with their phone. Thats the only pro for me that Apple has over android.

They should work thru the android devices signal by piggybacking off of it. A couple of years ago, a guy on another forum had a new custom rifle lost by the airline my late wife worked for, she eventually found the rifle for the guy. Everyone who used airtags has reported that even without an Apple device nearby, they were able to locate the item. I have Airtags embedded in every custom rifle I own.

The tag will even alert someone if they are being followed by an airtag, like being stalked. I know when I am not near one of mine, I can still see the location either thru wifi or my android home phone.

You might also look at Tile Tracker.

I used the galaxy smartag2 ,on my trip to Alaska back in August, they're not that expensive, around 26$ iirc ,I bought 4 of them ,one for my pistol case (a pelican clone) one for my large cked bag ,one for my carryon with my camera gear and the 4th one I hid inside my new bronco sport that I left at the airport for 8 days , I could actually track my baggage inside the terminal and make sure it was on the plane in the cargo hold , I thought that was cool as shit. You can also track its movement in the app ,as it leaves a breadcrumb type trail , the tag is very small only about 1-1/2 inch long and 3/8 inch thick , I highly recommend them , I think they only work with android phones but I could be wrong on that ,the way they work is if there's a android phone in close proximity to the tag it sends a signal to other androids and back to yours .

+ 1 for AirTag
