How long will my battery last?

Your PitPat GPS tracker has a sealed rechargeable battery that should last between a few days and a couple of weeks between recharges.

The battery life you get depends hugely on two things:

  1. How you use your PitPat

  2. How good your mobile coverage is

Battery consumption is higher when you're live-tracking your pet because your PitPat is actively listening to satellites and reporting back every 10 seconds. If you live-track your pet a lot, you'll have to recharge your battery more often.

Battery consumption is much higher if you use your PitPat in areas where there is poorer mobile/cellular coverage, because your PitPat has to "shout louder" to reach us. If you live in an area of poorer coverage, your battery-life will be severely reduced.
