Unpowered Asset Gateway.
The workhorse tracker for asset pools, rental equipment, and everything without a 12V feed.
Affordable visibility across every unpowered asset you own — for years per battery set.
The Unpowered Asset Gateway is a compact GPS tracker for the assets that have no power source of their own: intermodal containers, construction equipment, dumpsters, light towers, and pooled equipment. It runs on user-replaceable AA batteries that last 3–5 years, checks in on a schedule you control, and shrugs off weather in a waterproof, ruggedized enclosure. Vidmatics deploys them across the yard and configures check-in cadences that balance visibility against battery life.
