How selected tracking interval affects on device's power consumption?

Tracker G400FI, G500FI, G5002013, G1000 and Supra


Tracking intervals from 3 seconds to 1 minute 59 seconds

- Power mode used: "Full power"

- Has the highest power consumption

- All location updates, barking information etc. are processed with no additional delays


Tracking intervals from 2 minutes to 29 minutes

- Power mode allows the device to use power saving settings if needed

- When device is not using power saving settings, it performs with no additional delays


Tracking intervals of 30+ minutes

- Power mode allows the device to use power saving settings and also sleep mode

Note! Use with caution!

- Between position updates the device enters sleep mode (hibernating)

- In "Sleep mode" it cannot give location updates, or receive phone calls, or process commands sent to it

- The commands are received by the time when the device powers up for the next location update

- If You're having trouble getting location updates, use 1 minute tracking interval


Also external factors affect device power consumption e.g. cold temperature and weak local network signal strength
