Would this work to put in grandpas car in order for me to locate him if he gets lost?

you would have to put his exact location on the GPS Bushnell. I don't think it was work for you.

Doubt that would work since it needs access to the satellites. However there are devices meant for that purpose; most people use them on their kids in order to locate them. They're called GPS Trackers; just Google it.

This is a back-tracking unit yhat is used to set way points. It is not designed to locate from a remote location. It is meant to help you get back to a position you set that you were at previously.

If it was in his car and he set it from when he left his house he coukd find his way back to start but I'd look for a gps tracker or a transponder to hunt him down from your end

This will not work for you in that manner. The unit is designed to assist the person wearing it to be able to return to a previously saved GPS way point. You cannot use this unit to "track" someone who is in possession of it. In order to be able to track your grandfathers exact location you would need to provide him with a GPS unit that constantly transmits a location signal. This unit does not do that. You may want to look into some of the cellular phones on the market..... some of them have the tracking feature you are looking for, I have seen them advertised. There may be other such devices available for this purpose as well. Hope this helps you out. This will not work for you in that manner.

It will but witn very little clarity If you plan on determining who a person is , that out of the question. Might tell the make of a car.

yes, as long as you have the sensor and the locator and you have it set up.

Yes. I purchased this for my wife, since her work car doesn't have the homelink. It was very easy to set up and works great. And she doesn't misplace it, unless she misplaces her keys. HMMMM!

not really. just an alarm that can let you know if someone break into your car if your within the distance of the paging.

Just remember the pill shaped transponder located in the plastics beside the silver button.This is only a shell and if your key looks the same then odds are it will work. There is plenty of videos online how to disassemble and tranfer parts

As long as its the same number of megahertz (MHz) as the boat, it should work, even a remote for a car would work, again obviously if it has the same number of MHz's, you should be fine.

Hi Evan. It might be used in car, walking (if mounted somehow) or other mouvement ways, but not as an adress guide or direction information device.

I just checked to see if a gps would work. If you have a smaller gps yes it should work.

No, just get it interfaced to your laptop, start your software (Streets & Trips and DeLorme Topo North America both work for me) and it will find you. Even inside the house it found my location. This is much better than the GPS functionality in your cell phone. Well worth the price.

Yes. It will be hard to find the car behind the radio. But go ahead. It will work.

No. Stick with the usual car navigation. It is so small that you won't be able to really see it nor be guided by it.

Technically....yes. But it's maps aren't great and other features are very geocache oriented. Also....it's a old model. If you're looking for a new multi purpose GPS...I don't recommend it. There are many more new more powerful and useful models out there. Also....if you mean for use in a car.....no. It would be very poor at that.

It would be based how far your grandmothers house is from yours. It should tell in the description how far it will reach
1159939
Yeah it will work great. You will also need a bypass to get around the transponder in the key that tells the computer that your not stealing the vehicle. The one we use at my shop is a idatalink

As previous reviewer stated, yes, but it's just a basic one. If you lose key provided, a screwdriver or other small, flat instrument will suffice.
