1) What is ‘BlueTooth GPS’?
Not, just a tracking device!  BugGPS will provide any BlueTooth enebled device with full GPS.  This means you can turn your PC phone, Smartphone, or laptop into a GPS navigation unit.

 
2) And why is ‘logging’ GPS signals better?

Logging GPS signals is more accurate, updated more frequently, more reliable and will give you much more information. There are no ‘dead spots’ as with ‘live’ tracking devices.  Logging is 100% free.  ‘Live’ tracking devices can cost as much as $200 per month depending on how often they are updated.  BugGPS updates constantly which gives you more and better information like speed, average speed.  With ‘live’ tracking, vehicles can ‘disappear’ when the cellular signal is weak.



3) How long do the batteries last?
Battery life depends on how many hours the vehicle drives on average, per day.  BugGPS runs on a long lasting Lithium rechargeable battery which will give you up to 17 hours of straight logging.  When not driving, the motion sensor will shut itself off until the vehicle starts moving again.  This can extend the battery life for up to 1.5 months

4) Can I see it ‘Live’ on the internet?
No, BugGPS is ‘GPS Data Logger’ which is designed to give more accurate and more detailed information.  Some people/companies require complete details of their vehicles trips without ‘dead spots’.  BugGPS is the solution.
 
5) Is there any set up or initialization required to make BugGPS work?
No.  Just put the battery in, charge, and you’re ready to go.
