Designed by Ruictec in China, the TD04 is a LoRa-based low-power tracker that also features BLE and dual-band GNSS. It supports both indoor and outdoor positioning, and is suitable for fleet management, asset tracking, and geofencing over public or private LoRaWAN networks with minimal maintenance. The device combines GNSS (L1/L5) for outdoor positioning with BLE-based indoor tracking. It automatically switches between the two to optimize accuracy and power usage, delivering around 1–2 m accuracy outdoors and 2–4 m indoors. It is LoRaWAN 1.0.3-compliant, supports OTAA and ABP, and operates across multiple regional bands (EU868, US915, IN865, AS923, and others). Other features include a built-in motion sensor (G-sensor), configurable reporting and heartbeat intervals, iBeacon support, optional Bluetooth gateway mode, BLE-based configuration, OTA updates, and batch firmware upgrades. The device is powered by a 6000 mAh rechargeable battery and support 1.3 W solar panel input, enabling up to six months of standby […]
