works - if I just use it in always-on mode
Very light and small.
Understandable controls, when rung from the mobile phone it sends back a link to google maps with the current location via SMS.
Non-functional "standby" mode, i.e. the device saves and battery and only wakes up on a ring and sends the location. It never manages to find enough GPS satellites before going back to standby, so it sends the last detected position long out of date. So standby mode is unusable.
In "always on" mode, it eats battery, so it doesn't last long.
It is controlled and set only by sending commands to the device via SMS. High SMS consumption
Need a SIM with a convenient SMS tariff.
Very brief instructions, the device has e.g. a memory card slot, why, we do not find out.
It has a permanent location tracking mode via the manufacturer's www, activation required for 500kč with data SIM.

Used as a simple locator in case a motorcycle is stolen by an occasional crook (for a pro with a jammer, it's pretty nice, of course). It must be installed in a dry place (not waterproof) and can be connected to a flashlight (via USB cable). In normal operation, it is quite sufficient to connect to the live branch only when the ignition is switched on, so as not to accidentally discharge the battery during a prolonged shutdown (it seems that if it is connected to the on-board mains power, it will not sleep - the consumption came out to me about 30 - 40 mA, which is not quite enough, while the built-in battery without the mains power will last in sleep mode for at least a week, maybe even longer). Deployment is easy, just insert the SIM card and go. If you only need to occasionally detect the location on request (ringing), you can use e.g. A VF SIM card with a "zero tariff" and zero cost, yet it works even when roaming outside the EU (which data often isn't). Only outgoing SMS with location is paid. ATTENTION - about 5 minutes after the position query it will fall asleep and on the next query it will return WRONG the original position, i.e. it is necessary to request the location twice and only the second one is correct (perhaps there is a possibility to set the re-sending of the location, this would solve it automatically). I have not tested the device in continuous position tracking mode via data transmissions.
Small size and weight
Easy operation
Zero fixed costs in SMS mode
Relatively good battery life
Permanent connection to an external power supply
SOS button
Not waterproof (IPxx)
When requesting a position in sleep mode, the first position transmitted is incorrect
The motion alarm will respond (regardless of any smaller distance setting) up to 200 m from the "lock" point
