Just plugged into a wall charger momentarily to get them sync'd. Planning on running the GPS off a little battery pack once its in the car.

 

My personal favorite is this one. Cheap, good, and comes is mt.net special pink.

 

Estimated life of that battery powering this thing? Not like its a big deal to recharge it partway through the day, just curious.

 

Lars, I will send you more suction cups in exchange for mkturbo stickerz.

 

I would guess multiple days. The power draw is quite low. Something like less than .5amps. So 2200maH battery would last like 44 hours. bad math. I will remeasure this evening.

 

Kick ***, just bought one on Ebay for $6.20 shipped.

 

See my edit. Won't make 44 hours but I bet it would do a day.

 

No worries, I'm sure it will be fine. I can charge it between sessions if I have to.

 

Maybe, I hate packing peanuts so once I found the module I stopped digging through the box.

What all would it take to make this thing store the gps locations? I am curious just because I would love to hook up a small battery pack, then put it on one of my cats to track where it goes when it wanders the neighborhood at night.

 

Would need a small microcontroller that has the ability to store data. Instead of the Bluetooth you would have the microcontroller connected to the gps chip. So a whole new product basically

 

Well get working, I have 6 cats currently so I need 6 that will do that.

 

Build me a 3 inch cat back and we have a deal.

 

To those who have bought them or are looking to buy them would you still have been interested at $50? $35 just cut everything too close with extra costs and supplies. I'm looking into getting a whole bunch of the cases made (think hundreds) and need to find a price point that works. Any feedback is appreciated also.

 

Shuiend, you need this: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects...ta/description. I may or may not have backed this kickstarter...

 

I think $50 is plenty reasonable.

 

$50 is a go

 

 

At $50. I'll take 1.

 

Personally, for the kit, I would have paid 50 for it. Really for two main reasons;
1) Very well built, sorta made-in-america
2) Miata Turbo Member

 

I would be in at $50.
