Gps in safe

[tmlowe]

Anyone have any experience with micro gps trackers or anything like that? I was thinking of buying one to hide in the safe in case of theft. Any suggestions?

How well will it transmit through all that steel?

I safe will block all signals of gps or cell coverage..
Your best best.. bolt it to everything or buy a bigger safe..

Maybe a LoJack?

Besides, will a thief haul off the whole safe or hack in to it and take what he wants?

Depends on the safe..That is why you need bigger and heavier!!

lojack uses radio, and again would be only effective till you got out of metro area.. IMO no better than gps or gsm tracker... buy bigger

Yes, you can put a GPS in a safe, but you have to get a ribbon-tape antenna and adhere it to the top of the safe. Can be defeated easily if detected. Paint will not affect GPS transmission unless you have metal flecks in it.
