Battery Life
The average battery life of the PetLinkGPS is influenced by the following factors:
A) Your surrounding environment:
• Cellular coverage: less coverage results in higher battery consumption.
• GPS coverage: limited coverage leads to increased battery consumption.
• Weather conditions: cloudy skies or extreme temperatures can result in higher battery consumption.
B) Which functions you use:
• Live tracking demands the most battery power. A fully charged PetLinkGPS for Dogs device can support up to 5 hours of continuous Live Tracking (assuming other functions, such as Flashing Light or Beep Signal are not in use at the same time).
• Flashing Light and Beep Signal. A fully charged PetLinkGPS for Dogs can support up to 5 hours of continuous use of either of these functions (assuming other functions are not in use at the same time).
C) The settings you choose (in the Pet Profile section of the App):
• If you choose more frequent location update intervals this can lead to higher battery consumption.
• If you enable Energy Saving Mode, this, combined with a strong Wi-Fi signal, will reduce battery consumption.
Battery saving tips:
• Decrease the location update intervals to 24 hours in Pet Profile settings.
• Disable GPS during automatic updates.
• Only use Live Tracking when you most require it.
Battery Life Overview:
• Up to 20 days with pet always within the Energy Saving Zone.
• Up to 8 days if often near the Energy Saving Zone and without regularly activating Live Tracking.
• Up to 5 days if the pet is always outside the Energy Saving Zone.
• Up to 5 hours with Live Tracking always active.
