Seeing this is a bit of a tracker geek forum - both Chris (and soon to be Andy) are carrying a 2nd tracker each.

I've set these trackers up so the GPS is on all of the time. Normally it shuts down after sending a location (as is the case with the links earlier). Sounds great but drains the battery a lot faster, not sure if these trackers will last the 24hrs (normally they would last in excess of 50 hours).. but then thats what the testing is about. Certainly so far with Andy the tracking is slightly better..
