The Ultimate in Professional Vehicle Tracking
The Livewire is a completely covert GPS tracker that easily installs to a car's power source. With 30-second location updates and an external antenna to maximize performance, this powerful hidden car tracker puts you in total control of individual vehicles or fleets - and drivers will never know it's there unless you tell them. Perfect for tracking fleet vehicles, this best-in-class GPS device features improved accuracy, and it's designed specifically to make locating and routing vehicles as simple as possible.
What sets the Livewire apart from similar hardwired trackers is its backup battery. Enjoy an unlimited power supply while the car is running and, when the car is off, it will continue to provide location information; ideal for recovering a vehicle if it's been stolen. The backup battery will last nearly 12 hours.
Why Livewire?
- Hardwired, No Batteries Required
- 30-Second Location Updates
- Rapid Track Lets You Switch to Even Faster Tracking When You Need it
- External Antenna for Increased Accuracy
- Up to 12-Hour Backup Battery
This vehicle tracker runs on BrickHouse Security's exclusive GPS platform, giving you a full range of features. Through our easy-to-use platform, you're able to receive speed alerts via text or email if a vehicle exceeds any speed you select. And our new Rapid Track feature lets you switch to an even faster tracking speed for brief periods of time when you need it most (desktop and laptop use only).
You can also set geofences, which send you an instant message the moment a vehicle enters or exits a predefined zone. Access highly detailed reports of a car or fleet's travel history, in addition to viewing the tracker's location in real time on three customizable map views. Access all of these features from any device with an internet connection, and check in on your vehicle location conveniently using the free, intuitive app.
Once your tracker has been installed, it may take up to 24 hours for it to connect to the network and begin reporting. Also note that this unit does not track outside the US. If you need an extra antenna or yours has broken, see our easily-installed Replacement Antenna for the Livewire GPS Vehicle Tracker. Or, if you need a new harness, see our Replacement Harness for Livewire GPS Vehicle Tracker.
