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.

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

You can't, ypu have to down load the information to your computer to see where is has been, that means, you have to take it out of the car, then to your computer!!

Yes, it would work as an anti-theft device. It needs to be turned to the ON position to connect the battery to the boat, so it is a second key, independent to the ignition switch.

Yes, just make sure you use some type of shim to level the detector. I use a rolled up washcloth and place it between the visor and the ceiling of my car. Anything will work as a shim that doesn't damage your car.

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.

Maybe, but might be a tight fit. It's easier just to pull a few pins and knock it down to get it in the car. It only takes a few minutes. Knocked down, it'll fit in your trunk.

As long as it has a current map loaded and you can receive a signal where your going... You should be able too...

It's simple to operate and should work to mark his property lines if he already knows the GPS coordinates and can walk/travel his property line with the system on. He could also mark his deer stands and the path to it so it would be easy to find in the dark. I use the Garmin 62 stc and recommend it because you can take a pictures of a certain location (his deer stand) and the system marks the GPS coordinates. Hope this helps.

Probably not. I have this scanner. Doesn't work with quite a few things. And I doubt it will work for that car.

Should work....I no longer use it...I'll give it to you if youwant....I just have to find it....

Yes.if you link it to your Bluetooth phone when it's lost you can use the trackr app to make the trackr send out a high pitch signal for you to find.

When I use it, I keep it in a pocket of my photo vest. As long as it can receive a signal from the GPS satellites (at least three of them), it will work. That being said, I seriously doubt that it will work in your glove compartment.

Yes, if your car has "Home Link" as its called on my cars. Your car's owner manual should have a section that tells you how to set it up.

Sorry for delay -I was overseas, and had to test. I used my 14K wedding ring, and the scanner could pick it up from about 1" away. I suppose it would matter where you lost it, but it will detect.

Hello and thank you for your enquiry. The Magnetter is a really useful addition to the home for holding all those keys together but, in the case of electronic key fobs, I'd recommend checking with your car manufacturer. Best wishes, Sheila

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.
