Live tracking, plus the one button that stops the vehicle moving again

Most trackers tell you where a vehicle went. This one does that — live, as fast as every three seconds — and then lets you take the next step: disable the starter remotely so nobody drives it anywhere else.

It is a hardwired unit with a rechargeable backup battery, precise GPS and LTE Cat 1 connectivity, in a weatherproof case. Businesses use it on company vehicles and construction equipment; families use it on teen and senior drivers; dealerships and finance companies use it on financed inventory.

Hardwired into the 12V system, so it reports whether or not the key is in the ignition.

  • Find any vehicle or machine, 24/7
  • Disable the starter from your phone, from anywhere
  • Speed, stops and driving behaviour on every trip
  • Alerts when equipment is used without permission
  • Weatherproof, with a rechargeable backup battery
What the kill switch adds

Eight things a tracking-only device cannot do

Remote activation — disable the starter from the app if a vehicle is taken

Recovery assistance — an immobilised vehicle is far easier for police to recover

Ignition control through the vehicle's own starter circuit, hardwired or by command

Unauthorised use detection — an alert the moment a vehicle moves when it shouldn't

Real-time GPS with updates as fast as every 3 seconds

Trip history, speed and stops — see what actually happened, not what was reported

Scheduled disable and enable, set once in the Actions menu

How a starter interrupt actually works

How a starter interrupt actually works

The device sits between the battery and the starter motor. Activate it and the electricity that spins the starter is cut — turn the key and nothing happens. It can be triggered by a physical switch, a key fob, or remotely through the GPS tracker.

Worth being precise about one thing: this stops a vehicle being started. It does not shut off a running engine, and it should not — no safe product does. If a vehicle is taken, you disable it, and the moment the thief switches off, it stays off.

The same circuit can be wired to cut other electrical systems, such as lights and horn, if you want it to.

Key benefits

Who puts a kill switch on a vehicle

Fleets

Company vehicles and the people in them

Know where every vehicle is, how fast it was driven and how long it sat somewhere it had no reason to be.
Construction

Heavy equipment left on site

Movement, IGNITION ON and LEAVE alerts on excavators, backhoes and bulldozers — plus a starter that can be switched off overnight.
Dealerships

Financed and inventory vehicles

Locate a repossession in minutes instead of days, and immobilise a vehicle when payments stop.
Teen drivers

A new driver in the family

Speed and trip history on every drive, and a starter you can disable if the car is somewhere it shouldn't be.
Senior drivers

Keeping an eye without hovering

Live location when a family member is out, and a way to step in if a vehicle is taken.
Exotic & classic cars

Cars that get stolen to order

Hardwired and hidden, so a thief with the keys still has a car that will not turn over.
Installation

Have it hardwired properly it takes about an hour

A starter disable wires into the vehicle's starter circuit, so this is one to hand to an installer rather than do in a driveway. Technical support is free for as long as you own the device.

Pick the hiding place

An installer knows the spots a thief will not check and where the antenna still has a clear view. Out of sight matters more here than anywhere else — a kill switch only works if it is not found and unplugged.

Wire it into the 12V system

The tracker runs off the vehicle's 12/24V supply (9–30 VDC in normal operation) and the disable output goes into the starter circuit. Done properly it draws almost nothing when the vehicle is parked — around 400 µA in deep sleep.

Set your alerts and schedules

Turn on movement, IGNITION ON and LEAVE alerts, draw your geofences, and use the Actions menu to schedule the starter off overnight or at weekends if you want it.

What dealerships use it for
Auto finance and BHPH

What dealerships use it for

For a used car dealership or an auto finance company, the tracker is a collections tool as much as a security one. It shortens the gap between a customer going quiet and the vehicle being back on the lot.

  • Automatic payment reminders, so staff spend less time chasing
  • Remote starter disable when a customer stops paying
  • Faster, cheaper repossessions — you already know where the car is
  • Inventory tracking across the lot, to cut theft and damage
  • Fewer losses from non-payment, and a clearer picture of the book
Data plan

Pick your reporting speed

A data plan is required — the tracker reports over the cellular network. The only thing that changes the price is how often it checks in.

Updates every 60 seconds

Plenty for knowing where a vehicle is and where it has been

$16.95/mo

Starter disable on every plan

Remote immobilisation is part of the device, not a paid add-on.

Change speed later

Start on the slower plan and move up if you find you want the live map.

Free technical support

For as long as you own the device — installation questions included.

Alerts

What the tracker will tell you about, and when

Every alert below is set in the online platform and arrives on your phone. The last one is a schedule rather than an alert — it switches the starter off and back on by itself.

FAQs

Questions people ask before buying

Can a GPS tracker with starter disable prevent theft?

It does two jobs. If the tracker sees unauthorised movement you get an alert, and you can disable the starter remotely so the vehicle will not start again. Once it is switched off, it stays off — which is why recovery teams and police find an immobilised vehicle far easier to get back.

Does it stop the engine while the vehicle is moving?

No, and it should not. The device cuts power to the starter motor, so it prevents a vehicle being started. If a stolen vehicle is already running, you disable it and wait — the moment the engine is switched off, it will not turn over again.

Is there a monthly fee?

Yes. A data plan is required because the tracker reports over the cellular network. $16.95 a month at one-minute updates, $19.95 a month at three-second updates — the only difference is reporting speed.

Can I track construction equipment with it?

Yes. Set an Equipment Movement Alert plus IGNITION ON and LEAVE alerts in the platform and you are notified when an excavator, backhoe or bulldozer is started or moved. You can also schedule the starter to switch off overnight and at weekends from the Actions menu.

Can I disable the ignition from anywhere?

Yes — the command goes over the cellular network, so you can immobilise a vehicle from your phone wherever you happen to be, as long as the vehicle is in coverage.

Can I install it myself?

We would not recommend it. The disable output wires into the starter circuit, and where the unit is hidden matters — a kill switch found in thirty seconds is not a kill switch. An installer will also connect it to the 12V system without putting the tracker at risk.
