iStartek - VT300
The iStartek VT300 (VT300-L variant) is an entry level 4G GPS tracker intended for vehicles such as trucks, trailers, and bicycles. It combines multi‑constellation positioning (GPS, BDS, QZSS) with a wide operating voltage range, an internal backup battery, and IP66 protection, making it a practical choice for basic vehicle and asset tracking needs. The device also supports fuel monitoring, temperature sensors, tamper alerts, and local buffering for continuity when connectivity is lost.
As a Plaspy compatible device, the VT300 can feed location and sensor data into Plaspy’s fleet management environment to provide live visibility, alerts, and historical reporting. Its cost-effective design and sensor options make it suitable for organizations that need straightforward tracking plus fuel and temperature insights, while Plaspy handles aggregation, visualization, and operational workflows.
