Zoombak Advanced GPS Car and Family Locator device
AC Wall Charger
Portable 12 Volt DC Car Charger
Installation Bracket which holds your device securely in place when mounted in your vehicle
Installed this product in trunk of car. Installation was painless and only difficulty was finding an "always on" electrical line. Product came with sufficient material and wire length for installation into most locations. Product seemed real inconsistent first 24 hours it was turned on, I was almost to the point of considering returning it when it suddenly seemed to "sync up" and has been rock steady since. Not sure why this is but power cycling it a couple times may have done the trick. Otherwise works... more info
Good product, needs better Web site, SMS scheme:
I have been testing the Zoombak in a car for three days and it works well within the limits of T-Mobile's coverage, which is something you have to understand. They probably should have chosen AT&T as a GSM partner although T-Mobile performed pretty comparably in my test.
The Web site is slow and needs work. It was down at least once for some period of time (tech support reported that they had an outage). If you were in a panic to find your teen driver, I imagine this could be incredibly annoying.... more info
Zoombak Advanced GPS:
I bought this to able to track my son, whom is a new driver. I was/am so satisfied with the product that I have told friends that whom themselves have since bought one. I would recommend a zoombak to anyone that wants to keep an eye on their new teen driver. It is awesome and reliable. Thanks to Zoombak!
"Not Quite Ready For Prime Time":
I bought the Pet version of the Zoombak about a month ago and I'm sorry to say after a week of testing and multiple consultations with the Zoombak Technical Staff I did not have enough confidence in it to place it on my dog. I returned the unit to Amazon and received prompt credit.I also received an immediate credit from Zoombak for the year service that I had signed up for upon registering my unit because it was within their 30 day risk free period. The Zoombak staff was very courteous, and I'm sure... more info
