A GPS tracker works out where it is from the satellite network, then sends that position over the cellular network to an account you log into from your phone or a computer. That second half is the part people miss: the satellites tell the device where it is, the cellular connection is what tells you.
It is also why most real-time trackers carry a small monthly cost. The device is a one-time purchase; the data is what keeps it reporting.
Locks, cameras and lighting all do the same job: they make a theft less likely. None of them help on the morning you walk out and the trailer is not there.
That is the gap a tracker fills. It does not stop the theft it turns 'it's gone' into an address you can give the police, usually while the vehicle is still moving. The same feature does ordinary work the rest of the year: knowing a delivery arrived, that a teenager got there, that a machine is still on the site you left it on.

Most returns come down to one of these three being different from what someone expected. Two minutes here saves the conversation later.
A car you drive daily, a trailer that sits for a season and a machine in a far field are three different products. The daily car can use a plug-in or a charged device; the trailer needs months of battery; the machine needs years.
Battery life in this range runs from a couple of weeks to three years, and it moves with how often the device reports. Faster updates, shorter battery every time, on every brand.
Real-time tracking needs a data plan, and plans here run from about $9.95 a month to $50 a year depending on the device. If you would rather pay once, the no-subscription models exist for exactly that reason.
For most people, a real-time tracker with a magnet mount or an OBD2 plug. The magnetic units hide anywhere there is steel and run on their own battery; the OBD2 unit plugs into the port under the dash and never needs charging. Both report live to an app on your phone. If you would rather not pay monthly, the no-subscription models trade live updates for a one-time cost.
Generally you can track a vehicle you own, and a vehicle you do not own with the owner's consent. Placing a tracker on someone else's vehicle without their knowledge is restricted or illegal in many states, and employment and family situations have their own rules. This is not legal advice — if you are not the registered owner, check your state law or speak to a lawyer before you fit anything.
No. Real-time trackers do, because the live updates travel over a cellular network and that data costs something — plans in our range run from about $9.95 a month, and two of the devices include the first year outright. The no-subscription models have no recurring fee at all. The trade is update frequency, so pick based on whether you need to watch something move or just find it.
Anywhere from a couple of weeks to several years, depending on the model and how often it reports. A plug-in OBD2 unit runs as long as the car has a battery. Magnetic units in this range go from weeks to 140 days to three years — the long-life ones get there by checking in every few hours instead of every few seconds.
Somewhere with steel for the magnet, a reasonably clear view of the sky, and no obvious reason for anyone to look: inside a rear wheel well, under the rear bumper, on the frame rail, or in the boot under the floor panel. Avoid wrapping it in metal, and avoid the engine bay — heat and vibration shorten the life of any electronics.
