## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the monthly subscription cost for this solar tracker is higher than for the regular (wired usb) trak-4 ? or the same pricing ?**
A: The wired 12V tracker annual subscription has substantially cheaper options vs the cheapest subscription for the solar version; I don't know about the USB version.  I didn't know that the solar version's subscription was going to cost so much more and was very surprised after buying one and attempting to add it to my account.  If I'd known that, I'd have just added my own 12v solar panel to one of the 12V units instead of wasting money on a solar unit

**Q: If the vehicle is stolen, can the tracking on the solar version be stepped up to minutes to aid in recovery?**
A: Yes, there are various reporting options available.  These are selected from your account on the website and automatically downloaded to the unit on the vehicle via the cell phone account which you have opened exclusively for that device.  I believe every 5 minutes is the shortest reporting frequency.  The shorter the reporting frequency, the greater the battery drain.  This is why I have mine set for daily until I actually take the cargo trailer on which it is mounted on the road.  Should the trailer be stolen, I will update the reporting frequency accordingly.

**Q: If the unit is placed under a vehicle, will it recharge?**
A: No, the tracker needs 20 hours in the direct sunlight per week, on average. You can use the Trak-4 standard (USB charging) and set up a 20% "low battery alert" SMS/email reminder for charging.

**Q: Is the basic plan as low as $9.99 month or as low as $6.99 month. When paying a full year).  These ads say both prices. Which is correct ?**
A: I got the premium subscription which gives me more reporting options at $14.99 paid annually.   If I actually have to use this thing I am not going to care about a couple of bucks more a month to get my trailer back.

*by A***T on 20 January 2026*

I have had this this wired directly into my camper battery system for 5 years now. Daily accurate reporting while stationary and super accurate while on the move. Ability to set geo zones has kept my mind at ease and if anyone were to commandeer my camper it would be super easy to have the cops track it.
