MINI is a solar-powered GPS-GSM-ACC ultimate-light tracker with long-distance transmission suitable for backpack deployment for birds weighing 120 grams and more.
Also Argos, LoRa, 4G and 5G (NB-IoT & LTE-M) versions available.
Recently, we have also introduced a version with INTERNAL ANTENNAS. It is the lightest GPS-GSM tracker in the world without external antennas!

Housing: | Strong and water proof, with multiple harness threading holes. Various colours are possible. |
Data Types | |
GPS: | Longitude, latitude, altitude, geoid height, course, satellite quantity |
ENV: | Voltage, light intensity, temperature |
BHV: | ODBA (overall dynamic body acceleration) |
ACC: | x/y/z acceleration data (upon request) |
BSS: | longitude, latitude, altitude (alternative locating method for extreme situation) |
Power Supply | |
Solar type: | GaAs solar unit (30% efficiency) with good performance under weak light |
Battery type: | Lithium polymer rechargeable battery with under-and-over-charge protection |
Battery capacity: | 30mAh |
Fully charged battery is sufficient for logging over 100 GPS positions without recharge under optimal GPS satellite view. | |
GPS Module | |
GPS precision: | CEP (50%) 5m |
Max update rate: | 10 Hz |
Transmission Module | |
GPRS (2G data) | GSM (2G SMS) (global roaming supported) Argos 5G BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) - all versions |
|
Transmission Rate: | 2G: Max. 85.6 Kbps/85.6 Kbps (uplink/downlink) |
Data Collection & Transmission Setting: | |
Regular-Interval Mode: | |
- GPS interval: 5 min ~1 day | |
- ENV interval: 5 min ~1 day | |
- ODBA interval: 10 min/30 min | |
- ACC interval: 25 Hz, 3 seconds in every 10 min (by default) | |
- Transmission interval: 5 min ~1 day | |
Above ranges are selectable on website data platform or App. Contact us if other settings are required. | |
On-Time Mode | |
- Transmission: Up to three times at fixed hours per day (such as 13:00/14:00/18:00) | |
- GPS / ENV / BHV: Regular-interval model or on-time model follow each transmission | |
Sleep Mode | |
This mode is to deactivate certain type of data collection for: | |
- a certain period (from minutes to months) | |
- a regular period each day (a maximum of 16 hours) | |
Intelligent Frequency Optimization & Flight Detection (BOOST) | |
The BOOST function intelligently increases data collection & transmission frequency when the charging condition is good or the bird is flying. The default setting is as below: | |
Frequency Optimization: | Every 10 min/1 min |
Flight Detection: | Every 20 sec |
With BOOST, the device portrays detailed movement tracks without manual intervention and avoids the possibility of battery drain due to radical settings in bad weather. | |
Data Storage | |
Logged data will be stored in memory if network is unavailable. | |
Flash memory: | 16 MB |
Regular data storage: | 460 days at default setting (1h GPS+1h ENV+10 min BHV) |
BOOST data storage: | 280,000 pieces |
ACC data storage: | 28,700 pieces |
Operational Environment | |
Working temperature: | -20°C~60°C |
Waterproof: | IP 68 |
