The Bolt is our compact, plug and play OBDII tracking device.
The Bolt was previously available in 2 variants:
2G
4G LTE-M/NB-IoT
It has now been replaced with the Bolt2, available in a cellular LTE-M/NB-IoT version only.
In terms of usage and functionality, the major difference is that the Bolt2 comes with an internal back-up battery, which
allows an alert to be sent when the device is unplugged, and tracking to continue for some time. The original Bolt did not.
This guide applies to both units.
The device require next to no installation, drawing power from a vehicle's OBDII port. (They will not read OBDII diagnostic
data). The Bolt2 is designed to provide extremely cost-effective tracking with all the quality and support of a Digital Matter
product.
