Zoombak claims the battery lasts up to five days before recharging. The best I’ve been able to get is 69 hours (less than three days). I have no use for something that needs constant attention.
I have NEVER received an alert when the Zoombak leaves a zone that I have set.

Needs Improvement, barely lasts 5 days without locating it. If you locate the unit your 5 days will shorten very fast. Takes 24 hours to re-charge fully otherwise you will end up with 3 days of standby mode. Great size, when zoombak is located inside the house the zoombak tracking system will not see it, so it is useless when the unit is indoors. Website software is confusing and slow. Other tracking devices will track indoors not this unit- I guess you get what you pay for. I would recommend staying away from this product as it is a sub-standard tracking device and the customers service is non existent. They do not honor what they say, they cannot answer anything in writing, if you email them they request you call them and never leave anything in writing. You are better off using the tracking service thru sprint it is more accurate.
Product takes too long to track, sometimes the unit does not even work directly on top of a roof of a car without obstructions, poor quality build.
You cannot sell it once you have activated it nor can you transfer it to someone else. Very bad for the environment.The unit uses a proprietary power cord to re-charge, which forces one to use their power supply when they could have used a mini usb for re-charging. Shame on Discovery Channel / zoombak / for creating a non eco friendly unit.
Look elsewhere…

I bought this on Amazon so my wife can track me when I ride my motorcycle. Got it, read the box, went to the website and whamo!! It looks like a bunch of suits destroyed a really good product. Unless you are going to constantly track something, this is very expensive. If you track 10 times a month, it comes out to almost $1.50/ping!! Ouch, just carry a cell phone. Hell a Sat-phone call is almost cheaper when you absolutely need it. My rating: Good idea, great product design, good price for the device. The monthly fees are in orbit. Read other reviews, many are dis-satisfied!

I purchased this product to be placed in certain pieces of equipment I have (undisclosed) so I can track their movements if and when they are moved. Occasionaly the updates are delayed sometimes by a few hours but all in all they come ok.
Wiring Car Harness – becuase I do not have it installed in a Car. The wiring instructions are not very clear on how to wire it to anything else even for the car. If I were to install it in my vehicle, I would have to take the car somewhere where they do alarm installs or something so that I can get it installed by a professional.
Battery life – When not using the car wiring kit the battery can last you about 3-4 days tops. I believe the zoombak is being polled at 24/7 when powered on and that can be a cuase of battery drain. But I would like to suggest that zoombak implement times when the zoombak should be generally polled by the customer BY LOCATOR. For example in my particular situation I would not need for the locator to be polled any time after 10:00PM and starting again at 6:00 AM. that’s 8 hours of polling I don’t need again maybe save on battery life. When I am charging it again, I am out of pocket with tracking and that is my down time. Not a good thing. My only option would be to buy a second locator, setup all the zones and times identical to the first and use them simoutaneously.
The website can use some improvements. Mostly a history of movements by DATE RANGE. Sometimes I want to go back to a particular day and I cannot.
One last thing ZOOMBAK can you create a feature to copy all the zones settings from 1 locator to another. That would cut down on setup time and hits to your server.
Thanks

The Zoombak is a very cost effective tool, but it lacks consistency. Sometime it works and sometimes it doesn’t; more times not than does. Features are awesome and website very user friendly, but the signal is so weak that it can not be placed under a hood of your car or concealed and work effectively to do what it is advertised to do. The safety zone feature is neat, but does not work anymore after the first couple of months I have had it installed. If the signal could be improved, it would work great. I bought it as alternative to protect my vehicle instead paying for other costly methods of doing so. I have the feeling they intentionally designed it the way they so as to avoid you concealing it. Unfortunately, those that would use it for the wrong reasons have ruined it for those of us that would benefit most from it by using it as a theft recovery device. Hopefully improvements can be made to boost the signal.
