Loc8tor

July 13th, 2007

It’s so easy to misplace the small things in life: your keys, your wallet, the remote, your infant child, and so on. And they always turn up in the most ridiculous places (bottom shelf of the fridge for us, and boy was his mother pissed). For the seriously scatterbrained, buying a Loc8tor can help save you a lot of frustrating searching and possibly a visit from child services.

It comes with two small unobtrusive homing tags. Attach them to things you lose a lot, register the tag with the Loc8tor, and they can be located at any time with pinpoint accuracy at any time. The unit not only tells you what direction of the tag is in, but also makes the homing tag beep and flash. It’s accurate to within one inch of the tag’s location and can detect the tags up to 600 feet away. It also has an alert mode, which is great for tagged kids and pets, that warns you if the they go too far away.
